Q1:

Transition curves are introduced at either end of a circular curve, to obtain

A gradually decrease of curvature from zero at the tangent point to the specified quantity at the junction of the transition curve with main curve

B gradual increase of super-elevation from zero at the tangent point to the specified amount at the junction of the transition curve with main curve

C gradual change of gradient from zero at the tangent point to the specified amount at the junction of the transition curve with main curve

D none of these.

ANS:B - gradual increase of super-elevation from zero at the tangent point to the specified amount at the junction of the transition curve with main curve
