OBJECTIVE:
Instruments:
1. 2 range poles
4. 50 meter tape
PROCEDURE:
I = ___________ R = __________
2. The professor assigns the location of PC in the field, together with the
direction of the backward tangent. (Note: Be very careful in assigning the
location of station PC and direction of the backward tangent so that the curve
will not be obstructed by any large permanent structure.)
3. The students:
3.1. Compute the central incremental angle of the simple curve assigned, Lc
and Sta. Pt.
3. 2. Compute the incremental tangent offset distances x and y of each
intermediate stations before going to the filed.
3.3. Compute the first offset distances x and using the formula:
3.4. Compute the second offset distances x and using the formula:
3.5. Compute the succeeding offset distances x and y using the formula:
3.6. Compute the last offset distances x and y using the formula:
3.7. Lay the curve in the filed starting in the position of the PC. The process
explained below assumed that the total length of the tape will not be exhausted.
5.1. The front tapeman holds the 0 mark of the tape at station A.
5.2. The tangent offset tapeman (man at station B’) holds and locates the
length x2 mark, loop the tape and hold also the next full meter length.
5.3. The point B tape man locates and holds the y2 length of the tape from the
tangent offset tapeman; he also loops the tape and holds the next full meter
length of the tape. The front tape man while holding the zero mark of the tape
also holds the c tape length distance from point B tape man.
5.4. The front tapeman and tangent offset tapeman align themselves in the
direction along the prolongation of line PC to A.
6. Station C and other full stations are now laid on the ground using
the same procedures a to d.
7. Station PT is laid in the same manner as above but this time with a
chord length of only c2.
