{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
Chapter 3 Horizontal and Vertical Curves Topics As you will see in Chapter 7, the center line of a road consists of a series of straight lines interconnected by Curves that are used to change the alignment, direction, or slope of the road. Those Curves that change the alignment or direction are known as Horizontal Curves , and those that change the slope are Vertical Curves . As an EA you may have to assist in the design of these Curves . Generally, however, your main concern is to compute for the missing curve elements and parts as problems occur in the field in the actual curve layout. You will find that a thorough knowledge of the properties and behavior of Horizontal and Vertical Curves used in highway work will eliminate delays and unnecessary labor.
