The Transition Curve: By Offsets And By Deflection Angles (1893) is a technical book written by Charles Lee Crandall. The book focuses on the concept of transition curves, which are used in civil engineering and transportation to smoothly transition between straight and curved sections of a road or railway track. The author begins by providing a detailed explanation of the theory behind transition curves and their importance in engineering design. He then goes on to describe two methods for calculating transition curves: by offsets and by deflection angles. The first method involves using a series of offsets to gradually shift the curve away from the straight section, while the second method uses a series of deflection angles to gradually turn the curve. The book provides step-by-step instructions for both methods, including diagrams and mathematical formulas. In addition to the technical aspects of transition curves, the book also includes practical advice on how to apply this knowledge in real-world situations. This includes tips for selecting the appropriate curve parameters based on factors such as vehicle speed and curvature of the existing track or road. Overall, The Transition Curve: By Offsets And By Deflection Angles (1893) is a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and anyone involved in the design and construction of transportation infrastructure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
