Deviation Angle given Length of Summit Curve Less than Sight Distance Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Deviation Angle = 2*Sight Distance-((sqrt(2*Driver Sight Height)+sqrt(2*The Height of The Obstruction))^2)/Length of Curve
N = 2*S-((sqrt(2*h₁)+sqrt(2*h₂))^2)/L_s
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Deviation Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Deviation Angle is the angle between the reference direction and the observed direction.
Sight Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Sight Distance is s the minimum distance between two vehicles moving along a curve, when the driver of one vehicle can just see the other vehicle on the road.
Driver Sight Height - (Measured in Meter) - Driver Sight Height refers to the vertical distance between the driver's eye level and the road surface while seated in a vehicle.
The Height of The Obstruction - (Measured in Meter) - The Height of The Obstruction refers to its vertical dimension, blocking a line of sight or path, often in transportation, construction or safety.
Length of Curve - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Curve is the distance along the road where the alignment changes from upward to downward slope, creating a valley-shaped concave.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Sight Distance: 3.56 Meter --> 3.56 Meter No Conversion Required
Driver Sight Height: 0.75 Meter --> 0.75 Meter No Conversion Required
The Height of The Obstruction: 0.36 Meter --> 0.36 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Curve: 7 Meter --> 7 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = 2*S-((sqrt(2*h₁)+sqrt(2*h₂))^2)/L_s --> 2*3.56-((sqrt(2*0.75)+sqrt(2*0.36))^2)/7

Evaluating ... ...

N = 6.50593414727391

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.50593414727391 Radian --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.50593414727391 ≈ 6.505934 Radian <-- Deviation Angle
