Deflection Angle given Length of Curve Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Deflection Angle = Length of Curve/Curve Radius
Δ = L_Curve/R_Curve
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Deflection Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Deflection Angle is the angle between the first sub chord of curve and the deflected line with equal measurement of first sub chord from tangent point.
Length of Curve - (Measured in Meter) - Length of curve is defined as the arc length in a parabolic curves.
Curve Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Curve Radius is the radius of a circle whose part, say, arc is taken for consideration.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Curve: 150 Meter --> 150 Meter No Conversion Required
Curve Radius: 200 Meter --> 200 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Δ = L_Curve/R_Curve --> 150/200

Evaluating ... ...

Δ = 0.75

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.75 Radian -->42.9718346348198 Degree (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

42.9718346348198 ≈ 42.97183 Degree <-- Deflection Angle

What is setting out a curve means?

Setting out a curve means locating various points at equal and convenient distances along the length of a curve. The distance between any two successive points is called peg interval. Since it is impractical to measure the peg interval along the arc, it is measured along the chord.

How to Calculate Deflection Angle given Length of Curve?
