is likewise inaccessible. ARTICLE XV. TO AVOID OBSTACLES IN THE LINE 0? CUBVB. Let bJehhe the curve. We can either follow the tan- gents hd, dby or trace a parallel curve, g a, within the first ; which tracing is effected thus : — Set the instrument at h, the P. C, and offset any distance h g, at right angles to the tangent h d. It will be observed that as the dis- tance h g increases^ the distance g a decreases^ whilst the angle subtended hjga remains equal to that subtended 44 RAILWAY CURVES ...AND LOCATION. by A 6 ; i. e., our deflexions on the offset curve stand unchanged, but the corresponding chords^ g f, /e, &c., are less than their equivalents, h ^, i A;, &c., along h h. To find their length, Af, ihy &c., being equal to 100 feet, we have the proportion, ch : eg :: hiix'y i. e., R : rad. — hg i\ 100 feet : a:, where x symbols the un- known chord. Now set the transit at g^ turn into tangent parallel to A c2, and with the shortened chord, fix/ e a.
