Adding a Spiral
Tap the
$UF 6SLUDO tab.
Curve
: must be set to
Spiral
to enter a spiral curve.
Radius
: is the radius of the spiral curve. (The same
radius of the circular curve adjacent to the spiral.)
Length
: is the length of the spiral, measured along the
curve from the TS to the SC.
Turn
: specifies if the spiral curve turns to the
Right
or
Left
as you occupy the initial point and face the end
point.
Direction
: specifies if the curve runs from where the
tangent intersects with the spiral toward where the
spiral intersects with the curve (
TS->SC
) or if the curve
runs from where the curve intersects with the spiral toward where
the spiral intersects with the tangent (
CS->ST
).
Adding a Vertical Curve
Tap the
3DUDEROLF &XUYH tab.
;
Apply Curve
: must be checked to enter a vertical at
curve.
Grade at EVC
/
BVC
is the known grade at either the end
of vertical curve or beginning of vertical curve. The
grade entered here is determined by the selection made
in the Auto-Compute field.
Auto-Compute
: will automatically compute the grade at
the selected point and display it on the screen. The
grade at the point that is not checked here must be
specified in the field defined above.
