    And Incremental Chords (Transit and Tape or Theodolite and Tape)

    The document discusses two methods for laying out horizontal curves in surveying: the deflection angle method and total chords method. It provides an example calculation of total chords for a horizontal curve with a radius of 114.59 meters and deflection angles ranging from 4 degrees 59 minutes to 37 degrees 23 minutes. The total chords are calculated using the formula c=2RsinA and tabulated along with the corresponding deflection angle and station for each chord length.

    TOPIC: Layout of Horizontal Curves

    Deflection Angle Method and Total Chords (using TOTAL STATION)

    Solving for the Deflection Angle (see previous computation)

    Solving for the Total Chords:

    𝑐1 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎1 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(4𝑜 59′ ) = 19.91 𝑚

    𝑐2 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎2 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(9𝑜 59′ ) = 39.73 𝑚

    𝑐3 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎3 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(14𝑜 59′ ) = 59.25 𝑚

    𝑐4 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎4 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(19𝑜 59′ ) = 78.32 𝑚

    𝑐5 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎5 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(24𝑜 59′ ) = 96.80 𝑚

    𝑐6 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎6 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(29𝑜 59′ ) = 114.53 𝑚

    𝑐7 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎7 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(34𝑜 59′ ) = 131.40 𝑚

    𝑐8 = 2𝑅 sin 𝑎8 = 2(114.59 𝑚) sin(37𝑜 23′ ) = 139.14𝑚
