Hi all,
I was looking through BRT help guide to find the Equilibrium Cant Equation BRT uses when calculating cant.
The Define Cant Alignment menu has the following options for Cant Method:-
I typically select Use Equilibrium Equations from the above menu.
However I wanted to know the equation BRT uses.
I calculate equilibrium Cant (based on 1435 gauge) using the following:-
E = 11.841V^2/R
Where
E Is Equilibrium Cant
11.841 Is my Equilibrium Constant
R Is the Radius
V Is the speed
I am certain BRT uses the same equation because if I compare my manual calculations against the Eq Cant values shown in the Cant Alignment Editor they are the same - however i just want to know where in the help guide it actually shows the Equilibrium Cant equation.
Any ideas?
Thanks
