Question

Transcribed Image Text:A building is located 19 ft from the centerline of the inside lane of a curved section of
highway with a 400 ft radius. The road is level; e = 0.10. Determine the appropriate speed
limit (to the nearest 5 mph) considering the following conditions: stopping sight distance
and curve radius. Assume f= 0.15
