Construction of a Rounded Skew-Superelevation
Journal Title: Current Trends in Civil & Structural Engineering (CTCSE) - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Crash analysis of vehicle loss of control has shown that entering a curve constitutes a road section with high potential for developing hydroplaning [1-4]. This is due to the fact that at these sections, cross-slope rates reach small values (less than 0.5%) much less than those required for adequate drainage.
