Question: Two straights, A I and I B , whose bearings are 7 5 3 0 ' 3 0 ' ' and 9 1 0 0

Two straights, AI and IB, whose bearings are 7530'30'' and 9100'30'' respectively intersect at I. A horizontal curve, comprising a central circular arc and two equal length transitions curve (exit and entrance), is to be used to connect these two straights. The chainage of I is 5151.441 metres while its coordinates are ,8892.29mE). While, design speed and radius have been fixed at 90kmh and 900m respectively. A rate of change of acceleration is 0.3ms3.
(a) Determine the length of the proposed combine curve and the running chainage of four tangent points and (:T4}.

(b) Prepare road curve setting out table for the first transition curve to (:T2} at 25m intervals.
(15 marks)
(c) During the road curve setting out, it was found that the location of the second running tangent (T2) is obstructed and not accessible from first running tangent ((:Tl}. Supposing that the T2 could be set out from I, calculate the required bearings and distances from I to T2.
