A horizontal curve on a two-lane road is designed with a 2,300-ft radius, 12-ft lanes, and a 65-mph design speed. Determine the distance that must be cleared from the inside edge of the inside lane to provide sufficient sight distance. Also determine the superelevation rate for the curve.

distance = 22.57 ft

superelevation rate = 2%

Explanation:

given data

radius = 2,300-ft

lanes width = 12-ft

no of lane = 2

design speed = 65-mph

solution

we get here sufficient sight distance SSD that is express as

SSD = 1.47 ut +     ..............1

here u is speed and t is reaction time i.e 2.5 second and a is here deceleration rate i.e 11.2 ft/s² and g is gravitational force i.e 32.2 ft/s² and G is gradient i.e 0 here

so put here value and we get

SSD = 1.47 × 65 ×2.5  +

solve it we get

SSD = 644 ft  

so here minimum distance clear from the inside edge of the inside lane is

Ms = Rv ( 1  - )        .....................2

here Rv is = R - one lane width

Rv = 2300 - 6 = 2294 ft

put value in equation 2 we get

Ms = 2294 ( 1  -  )  

solve it we get

Ms = 22.57 ft

and

superelevation rate for the curve will be here as

R  =  ..................3

here f is coefficient of friction that is 0.10

put here value and we get e

2300 =

solve it we get

e = 2%

unlike the threaded fasteners which are used to clamp the machine members, power screws are used to transmit power. common applications of power screws are: screw jacks: to lift weight. lead screw of lathe: for axial movement of tool and its precise positioning.

d would be the most obvious choice to this question. leaders are supposed to herd their underlings like a shepherd to sheep. a leader should also listen to others when they are talking to one other to gain a better understanding of their mission and surroundings.
