Super Elevation and the Basics in Building Roads
Super elevation by definition is tilting the roadway that helps the offset of the centripetal forces developed when the vehicle goes around a curve. With the friction along they keep a vehicle from going off the road. The values are determined by AASHTO Design Guide and are a function of the rate of super elevation and the curve radius. Â The transitions calculations are done by using the spreadsheet calculator. The way they look is illustrated in the sketches in the gallery below.
