A transition curve is required for a circular curve of 200 m radius, the gauge being 1.5 m and maximum superelevation restricted to 15 cm. The transition is to be designed for a velocity such that no lateral pressure is imposed on the rails and the rate of gain of radial acceleration is 30 cm/s3. The required length of the transition curve and the design speed respectively are:
- 146 m and 14 m/s✓
- 224 m/s and 46 m
- 346 m and 24 m/s
- 414 m/s and 46 m
Correct answer
46 m and 14 m/s
