You cannot use (e + f) = v^2/127R. It is for super-elevated curves not for horizontal curves.

R = 60*60/127(.07+.15) = 128.8.

V = √ 27.94 R.

Underroot of (27.94 multiply by 27.94)

Manoj kabdwal said:   9 years ago
The e equals v*v/225R put e equation 0.07 find R.

It is 228.57 as this question is saying about design speed so above formula will be used.

0.07 for plain and rolling.
0.10 for the hilly area.
0.04 for urban roads and frequent intersections.

Amrit said:   8 years ago
R min= V * V/127(e+F).
= 60 * 60/ 127(0.07+0.15),
= 128.8.

May be the correct answer 131m.

You are correct @Amrit.

RAHUL said:   8 years ago
What is 'F' and 'e'?

Suraj giri said:   8 years ago
R = 60*60/127(.07+.15) = 128.8.

Vijay said:   8 years ago
Here, R=v*v/g(e+f).
