The general equation of superelevation is given by,
Where,
e = rate of superelevation = tan θ
R = radius of the horizontal curve in m
f = coefficient of lateral friction = 0.15
Equilibrium superelevation:
It is that superelevation which when provided imposes equal pressure on both outsides and inside of tyres of the vehicle, i.e f = 0
The rate of equilibrium superelevation on a road is given by
Explanation:
The rate of equilibrium superelevation on a road is given by
For a constant value of co-efficient of lateral friction:
e α V2 i.e The rate of equilibrium superelevation on a road is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.
e α 1/R i.e The rate of equilibrium superelevation on a road is inversely proportional to the radius of the horizontal curve.
e+f=v2/127R
Option C is correct
