Degree of Curvature Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

Civil geometric design calculator helps to calculate degree of curvature from the radius. Degree of curvature may be defined in two ways. The arc definition is the angle subtended by a 100 ft arc. The chord definition is the angle subtended by a 100 ft chord.

Degree of Curvature - Horizontal Curve Calculation

Formula:

D = 36,000 / 2πR

where,
R - radius of horizontal curves
π - 3.14285714286
D - degree of curvature
