HISTORY
Spiral curves were originally designed for the Railroads to smooth the transition from a
tangent line into simple curves. They helped to minimize the wear and tear on the tracks. Spiral
curves were implemented at a later date on highways to provide a smooth transition from the
tangent line into simple curves. The highway engineers later determined that most drivers will
naturally make that spiral transition with the vehicle; therefore, spiral curves are only used on
highways in special cases today.

Because they were used in the past and in special cases today, we need to know how to
calculate them.

From the surveyors perspective, the design of spiral curves has already been determined by
the engineer and will be documented on existing R/W and As-built plans. All we have to do is
use the information shown on these plans to fit the spiral curve within our surveyed alignment.

REFERENCES
There are many books available on spiral curves that can help you know and understand how
the design process works. It can get complicated when you dive into the theory and design of
spiral curves.
My reference material includes the following books:
Railroad Curves and Earthwork; by C. Frank Allen, S.B.
Route Surveying and Design; by Carl F. Meyer & David W. Gibson

ADOT Roadway Guides for use in Office and Field 1986

This guide has all of the formulas and tables that you will need to work with spiral curves. The
formulas, for the most part, are the same formulas used by the Railroad.
The Railroads use the 10 Chord spiral method for layout and have tables setup to divide the
spiral into 10 equal chords. Highway spirals can be laid out with the 10 Chord method but are
generally staked out by centerline stationing depending on the needs in the field.
For R/W calculations we only need to be concerned with the full spiral length.
The tables that will be used the most are D-55.10 (Full Transition Spiral) and D-57.05 through
D-57.95 (Transitional Spiral Tables).
On rare occasions you may also need D-55.30 (Spiral Transition Compound Curves).

COURSE OBJECTIVE
This course is intended to introduce you to Spiral Curve calculations along centerline
alignments.
It is assumed that you already now how to calculate simple curves and generate coordinates
from one point to another using a bearing and distance.
Offsets to Spiral Curves and intersections of lines with Spiral Curves will not be discussed in
this lesson. These types of calculations will be addressed in a future lesson.
You can check your calculations using the online Spiral Calculator at:
http://www.cc4w.net/spiral/index.aspx

EXAMPLE SPIRAL
Included are two example spiral curves from ADOT projects. The one that we will be
calculating contains Equal Spirals for the Entrance and Exit on both sides of the main curve.
The second example contains Unequal Spirals for the Entrance and Exit and a Transitional
Spiral between two main curves with different radii. We will look at the process used to
calculate this example but we will not be doing any calculations.
The example spiral that we will be calculating is from the ADOT project along S.R. 64 as
shown on sheet RS-17 of the Results of Survey.
We will walk through each step to calculate this spiral.
Note: My career started 30 plus years ago, before GPS and computers. I did all my
calculations by hand and I teach my staff to do the calculations by hand so that they will have
a thorough understanding of the mathematical process. I am a big advocate of technology
and use it exclusively. I also have a passion for the art of surveying mathematics, therefore I
feel that everyone should know how to do it manually. I feel that my staff has a better
appreciation for technology by having done the calculations manually, at least once, before
they rely on a computer to do it for them.

Look for the spiral curve and

main curve information

The key information needed is the Degree of Curvature and the Spiral length.

Your tangent lines should be defined either by survey or record information. Sketch your tangent
lines and Point of Intersection. Add the bearings for the tangent lines and calculate the
deflection at the P.I. As shown below, the deflection is 362916.
131411 + 231505 = 362916

Next we will calculate the tangent distance (Ts) from the T.S. to the P.I.
Use the following formulas to calculate Ts.
Delta(t) = 36-29-16(dms) ~ 36.48777777(ddd)
D = 2-00-00(dms) ~ 2.0000(ddd)
Ls = 200.00
R = 5729.578 / D = 5729.578 / 2.0000 = 2864.789
a = (D * 100) / Ls = (2.0000 * 100) / 200.00 = 1.00 (Checks with record data)
o = 0.0727 * a * ((Ls / 100)^3)
o = 0.0727 * 1 * ((200.00 / 100)^3) = 0.5816
t = (50 * Ls / 100) (0.000127 * a^2 * (Ls / 100)^5)
t = (50 * 200.00/100) (0.000127 * 1^2 * (200.00 / 100)^5 = 99.9959
Ts = (Tan(Delta(t) / 2) * (R +o)) + t
Ts = (Tan(36.48777777 / 2) * (2864.789 + 0.5816)) + 99.9959 = 1044.515

Use coordinate geometry to calculate the Latitude and Departure for each course and add them to
the Northing and Easting of the Point of Intersection (P.I.) to get the Northing and Easting for the T.S.
and S.T.

Calculate the spiral chord distance (Chord) and deflection angle (Def).
Chord = (100 * Ls / 100) (0.00034 * a^2 * (Ls / 100)^5)
Chord = (100 * 200.00 / 100) (0.00034 * 1^2 * (200.00 / 100)^5) = 199.989

Def = (a * Ls^2) / 60000 = (1 * 200.00^2) / 60000 = 0.666666(ddd) ~ 0-40-00(dms)

Calculate the chord bearing and Northing & Easting for the Spiral to Curve (S.C.) & Curve to Spiral
(C.S.)
Note: Substitute Ls for any length (L) along the spiral to calculate the sub-chord and Def angle to
any point along the spiral from the T.S.

Calculate the spiral delta and tangent distance to the Spiral Point of Intersection (SPI).
Delta(s) = 0.005 * D * Ls = 0.005 * 2.0000 * 200.00 = 2.0000(ddd) ~ 2-00-00(dms)
u = Chord * Sin(Delta(s) * 2 / 3) / Sin(Delta(s))
u = 199.989 * Sin(2.0000 * 2 / 3) / Sin(2.0000) = 133.341
Calculate Northing and Easting of SPI.

No. 6
Calculate the radial line and radius point for the main curve.
Calculate the back deflection from the S.C. to the SPI is as follows:
Delta(s) Def = Back Def
2.0000 0.666666 = 1.333334(ddd) ~ 1-20-00(dms)
Using the Back Def and chord bearing calculate the tangent bearing at the S.C. then perpendicular from
the tangent line calculate the radial line. Do this for the C.S. as well. Calculate the Radius point from the
S.C. and C.S. You should come up with the same coordinates. If not, then something is wrong. Recheck all of
your calculations.

No. 7
Using the radial bearings calculate the Main Curve Delta of 32-29-16(dms) ~ 32.487777(dms)
Now add the Spiral Delta as follows:
Delta(t) = Delta(s) + Delta(m) + Delta(s)
Delta(t) = 2-00-00 + 32-29-16 + 2-00-00 = 36-29-16 this should equal the deflection in Step
2.
Calculate the arc length for Main Curve
Lm = (Delta(m) * R * pi) / 180
Lm = (32.487777 * 2864.789 * 3.141592654) / 180 = 1624.389

The final step is to calculate the stationing.
Starting with the T.S. calculate each stationing along the curve.
T.S. 2180+84.70 + 200.00 (Ls) = S.C. 2182+84.70
S.C. 2182+84.70 + 1624.39 (Lm) = C.S. 2199+09.09
C.S. 2199+09.09 + 200.00 (Ls) = S.T. 2201+09.09

P.I. Stationing = T.S. Stationing + Ts

T.S. 2180+84.70 + 1044.51 (Ts) = P.I. 2191+29.21

Be aware that you may have some slight differences in the coordinates, distances and stationing due
to rounding errors.

Unequal Spiral information and Transitional Spirals

The following example is an ADOT project along U.S. 60 west of Globe AZ.
The 10 miles section of highway is almost completely composed of spiral curves. There is one area
that contained an entrance spiral, then a curve, then a transitional spiral, then a curve, then a
transitional spiral, then a curve and finally an exit spiral.
The next slide shows the record information for this segment.

Calculating spiral curves does not have to be complicated. Once you understand the elements needed
and methodically step through the process, you will obtain consistent results and might even have fun
while doing it.

I hope that this presentation will debunk some of the myths that spiral curves are complicated and
difficult to work with and will not make your hair turn gray.

You can contact me at jcrume@cc4w.net if you have any questions.

The Appendix contains full size PDF sheets that you can printout for your reference material.
