                                      SETTING OUT OF CURVE Through this post   you are going to learn  1. What is curve setting ? 2. Type of curve in surveying or classification of curve? 3. Degree of curve . 4. Relation between Radius and degree of curve ? 4.  What are the different method of curve setting? 1. What is curve setting ? Let's assume AB is the direction of a road or railway . Due to some obstacle or some unavoidable circumstance we can not go forward . This is why we have to shift the direction of our road . The angle of change in the direction is known as deflection angle . This angle denoted as  Φ  . A vehicle to run easily along the road or railway trake these two line are connected by an arc this arc is known as a curve of a road or you can say Setting out of curve  . 2. Types of curve in surveying  Generally curve are two type   i. Horizontal Curve  ii. Vertical Curve      When the curve is provided into the horizontal plane is known as Horizontal Curve  .
