Question
A one lane loop ramp at the northwest quadrant of an interchange, this loop ramp is for northbound vehicles to change travel directions towards the west. The friction factor between the tire and the pavement is 0.095. If the design speed is 35 mph and the radius of the loop ramp is 545 ft measured to the centerline What should be the super elevation ?
