CURVES
COMBIEND CURVES Combined curves are a combination of simple circuler curve and transition curves. These types of curves are preferred in railways and highways. When transition curves are introduced at a both ends of a circular curve, the resulting curve is known as a combined curve or composite curve.
B T1 F E ∆ ∆ ∆s ∆s ∆-2∆s O D1 F1 R R D T1 ′ T2 ′ T2 A C Transition curve Transition curve SHIFT Circular curve
NOTATIONS AB = Back tangent BC = Forward tangent 2T 1 = Point of curve T 2 = Point of tangency ∆ = Deflection angle ∆s = Spiral angle T 1 D or T 2 F =Length of the transition curve
DEF = Length of circular curve T 1 ʹ D 1 or T 2 ʹF 1 = Shift of the curve T 1 DEFT 2 = Length of the combined curve ∆ -2∆ s = Central angle
COMPUTATIONS FOR A COMBINED CURVE For setting out a combined curve,the following data are required. The data given are: 1) Deflection angle (∆) 2) Radius of curve (R) 3) Length of transition curve(L) 4) Chainage of point of intersection B.
1) Spiral angle (∆s) ∆s = L 2r radians = L X 180 Degrees 2r π 2) Shift (s) S = L 2 24R
3) Tangent length T T = BT 1 =(R+S) TAN ∆ + L 2 2 4) Length of circular curve Lc = π R (∆ - 2∆ S ) 180 5) Chainages of various points Chainage of T 1 = Chainage of B –BT 1 Chainage of D =Chainage of T 1 + L Chainage of T 2 = Chainage of F + L
6) Length of the normal chords Generally,10 m for the transition curve and 20 m for the circuler curve are used. 7)Length of sub chords = It is calculated after knowing the chainages of salient points . 8) Deflection Angles = For transition curve α = 1800 2 minutes π RL
L is measured from the tangent point T1. The deflection angle at the junction of transition curve and circular curve for l=L is α n = 1800L π R b) For circular curve δ =1718.9 C minutes R c = length of the chord δ =tangential angles from tangent at D.
The total deflection angles are= ∆ 1 = δ 1 ∆ 2 = ∆ 1 + δ 2 ∆ 3 = ∆ 2 + δ 3 ∆ n = ∆n-1 + δ n ∆ n should be equal to 1 (∆ -2 ∆ s) 2

Length of a vertical curve The length of vertical curve can be obtained by dividing the algebric difference of the two grades by the rate of change of grade Length of curve(L)= total change of grade rate of change of grade = g2 – g1 r Where, g1,g2 = grades in % r=rate of change of grade (%)
1) in respect to calculation for setting out of combined curve if ∆ =34⁰30′, radius of circular curve is 400m,length of transition curve 60m. calculate shifts, tangent length and spiral angle. solution L =60 m ∆= 34⁰30′ R=400m
1) shift (s) S = L 2 = 60 2 = 0.375m 24R 24x400 2) Tangent length T = (R+S) tan ∆ + L 2 2 = (400+0.375)tan 34⁰30′ + 60 2 2 = 124.32+30 =154.32 m
3) Spiral angle (∆s) ∆s = L 2R = 60 2x400 = 0.075 radian =0.075 x 180 π = 4⁰17′50″
2) Calculate length of parabolic curve joining curve two uniform grades of +1.2% per 100m. solution g1=+1.2% g2= -0.8% r =0.15% (rate of change of grade) Length of curve = L = (g1- g2 ) x 100 r = (-0.8-.1.2) x 100 0.15 = 1333.33m
3) A parabolic vertical curve is to be set out connecting two uniform grades of +1.25 and 0.8%. The Rate of change of grade is 0.05% per 20 m chain. The R.L of point of intersection is 120 m ,calcuate R.L of beginning and end of Curve. g1 =1.2% g2 =-0.8% r= 0.05% (for 20 m)
Length of curve = L = g2 –g1 x 20 r = -0.8-1.2 x20 0.05 =800m R.L of beginning point of curve =120- 1.2 x 800 100 2 =120 – 4.80 = 115.20 m
R.L. of end point of curve = 120 – 0.8 x 800 100 2 = 120 – 3.2 = 116.8m
An upgrade of 3% followed by down grade 5% are connected by a vertical parabolic curve of 500m length. If R.L. of point of intersection is 400m, calculate the R.L. of beginning point, end point and the mid point of curve. Solution g1= +3% g2= -5% Length of curve =L= 500m R.L. of beginning point of curve = 400- 3 x 500 100 2 = 392.5m
R.L. of end point of curve = 400 - 5 x 500 100 2 = 387.5m R.L. of mid point of long chord = 392.5 + 387.5 2 =390m R.L. of mid point of curve = R.L. of point of intersection+ R.L. of mid point of long chord 2 400+390 2 =395m
