volume and type, which can be obtained only by means of a traffic survey.

While maximum grades vary a great deal in various states, AASHTO recommendations make maximum grades dependent on design speed and topography. Present practice limits grades to 5 percent of a design speed of 70 mph. For a design speed of 30 mph, maximum grades typically range from 7 to 12 percent, depending on topography. Wherever long sustained grades are used, the designer should not substantially exceed the critical length of grade without the provision of climbing lanes for slow-moving vehicles. Critical grade lengths vary from 1700 ft for a 3 percent grade to 500 ft for an 8 percent grade.

Long sustained grades should be less than the maximum grade on any particular section of a highway. It is often preferred to break the long sustained uniform grade by placing steeper grades at the bottom and lightening the grade near the top of the ascent. Dips in the profile grade in which vehicles may be hidden from view should also be avoided. Maximum grade for highway is 9 percent. Standards setting minimum grades are of importance only when surface drainage is a problem as when water must be carried away in a gutter or roadside ditch. In such instances the AASHTO suggests a minimum of 0.35%.

3. Sight Distance

For safe vehicle operation, highway must be designed to give drivers a sufficient distance or clear version ahead so that they can avoid unexpected obstacles and can pass slower vehicles without danger. Sight distance is the length of highway visible ahead to the driver of a vehicle. The concept of safe sight distance has two facets: “stopping” (or “no passing”) and “passing”.

At times large objects may drop into a roadway and will do serious damage to a motor vehicle that strikes them. Again a car or truck may be forced to stop in the traffic lane in the path of following vehicles. In dither instance, proper design requires that such hazards become visible at distances great enough that drivers can stop before hitting them. Further more, it is unsafe to assume that one oncoming vehicle may avoid trouble by leaving the lane in which it is traveling, for this might result in loss of control or collision with another vehicle.

Stopping sight distance is made up of two elements. The first is the distance

traveled after the obstruction comes into view but before the driver applies his brakes. During this period of perception and reaction, the vehicle travels at its initial velocity. The second distance is consumed while the driver brakes the vehicle to a stop. The first of these two distances is dependent on the speed of the vehicle and the perception time and brake-reaction time of the operator. The second distance depends on the speed of the vehicle; the condition of brakes, times, and roadway surface; and the alignment and grade of the highway.

On two-lane highways, opportunity to pass slow-moving vehicles must be provided at intervals. Otherwise capacity decreases and accidents increase as impatient drivers risk head-on collisions by passing when it is unsafe to do so. The minimum distance ahead that must be clear to permit safe passing is called the passing sight distance. In deciding whether or not to pass another vehicle, the driver must weigh the clear distance available to him against the distance required to carry out the sequence of events that make up the passing maneuver. Among the factors that will influence his decision are the degree of caution that he exercises and the accelerating ability of his vehicle. Because humans differ markedly, passing practices, which depend largely on human judgment and behavior rather than on the laws of mechanics, vary considerably among drivers.

The geometric design is to ensure highway traffic safety foundation, the highway construction projects around the other highway on geometric design, therefore, in the geometry of the highway design process, if appear any unsafe potential factors, or low levels of combination of design, will affect the whole highway geometric design quality, and the safety of the traffic to bring adverse impact. So, on the geometry of the highway design must be focus on.

公路几何设计

公路是供汽车或其他车辆行驶的一种线形带状结构体。它是由路基、路面、桥梁、涵洞和隧道组成。此外,它还有路线交叉、防护工程和交通工程及沿线设施。

路基是路面、路肩、边坡、边沟等部分的基础。它是按照路线的平面位置在地面上开挖和填筑成的土石料构造物。路基作为行车部分的基础,必须保证它有足够的强度和稳定性,可以防止水及其他自然灾害的侵蚀。

路面是公路表面的部分。它是用混合料铺筑的单层或多层结构物。路面要求光滑,具有足够的强度,稳定性好和抗湿滑功能。路面质量的好环,直接影响到行车的安全性、舒适性和通行。

公路几何线形设计要考虑公路平面线形、纵断面线形两种线形以及横断面的组成相协调,还要注意视距的畅通等等。确定公路几何线形时,在考虑地形、地物、土地的合理利用及环境保护因素时,要充分利用公路几何组成部分的合理尺寸和线形组合。

1、线形设计

道路的线形反映在平面图上是由一系列的直线和与直线相连的圆曲线构成的。现代设计时常在直线与圆曲线之间插入缓和曲线。

线形应是连续的,应避免平缓线形到小半径曲线的突变或者长直线末端与小半径曲线相连接的突然变化,否则会发生交通事故。同样,不同半径的圆弧首尾相接(曲线)或在两半径不同的圆弧之间插入短直线都是不良的线形,除非在圆弧之间插入缓和曲线。长而平缓的曲线在任何时候都是可取的,因为这种曲线线形优美,将来也不会废弃。然而,双向道路线形全由曲线构成也是不理想的,因为一些驾驶员通过曲线路段时总是犹豫。长而缓的曲线应用在拐角较小的地方。如果采用短曲线,则会出现“扭结”。另外,线路的平、纵断面设计应综合考虑,而不应只顾其一,不顾其二,例如,当平曲线的起点位于竖曲线的顶点附近时将会产生严重的交通事故。

行驶在曲线路段上的车辆受到离心力的作用,就需要一个大小相同方向相反的由超高和侧向磨擦提供的力抵消它,这些控制值对于某一规定设计车速可能采用曲线的曲率作了限制。通常情况下,某一圆曲线的曲率是由其半径来体现的。而对于线形设计而言,曲率常常通过曲线的程度来描述,即100英尺长的曲线所

对应的中心角,曲线的程度与曲线的半径成反比。

公路的直线地段设置正常的路拱,而曲线地段则设置超高,在正常断面与超高断面之间必须设置过渡渐变路段。通常的做法是维持道路每一条中线设计标高不变,通过抬高外侧边缘,降低内侧边缘以形成所需的超高,对于直线与圆曲线直接相连的线形,超高应从未到达曲线之前的直线上开始,在曲线顶点另一端一定距离以外达到全部超高。

如果车辆以高速度行驶在直线与小半径的圆曲线相连的路段,行车是极不舒服。汽车驶近曲线路段时,超高开始,车辆向内侧倾斜,但乘客须维持身体的垂直状态,因为此时未受到离心力的作用。当汽车到达曲线路段时,离心力突然产生,迫使乘客向外倾斜,为了维持平衡,乘客必须迫使自己的身体向内侧倾斜。由于剩余超高发挥作用,乘客须作进一步的姿势的调整。当汽车离开曲线时,上述过程刚好相反。插入缓和曲线后,半径从无穷大逐渐过渡到圆曲线上的某一固定值,离心力逐渐增大,沿缓和曲线心设置超高,离心力平稳逐渐增加,避免了行车颠簸。

缓和曲线在铁路上已经使用多年,但在公路上最近才得以应用,这是可以理解的。火车必须遵循精确的运行轨道,采用缓和曲线后,上述那种不舒服的感觉才能消除。然而,汽车司机在公路上可以随意改变侧向位置,通过迂迴进入圆曲线来为自己提供缓和曲线。但是在一个车道上(有时在其他车道上)做这种迂迴行驶是非常危险的。设计合理的缓和曲线使得上述迂迴没有必要。主要是出于安全原因,公路部门广泛采用了缓和曲线。

对于半径相同的圆曲线来说,在未端加上缓和曲线就会改变曲线与直线的相关位置,因此应在最终定线勘测之前应决定是否采用缓和曲线。一般曲线的起点标为PC或BC,终点标为PT或EC。对含有缓和曲线的曲线,通常的标记配置增为:TC、SC、CS和ST。对于双向道路,急弯处应增加路面宽度,这主要基于以下因素:(1)驾驶员害怕驶出路面边缘;(2)由于车辆前轮和后轮的行驶轨迹不同,车辆有效横向宽度加大;(3)车辆前方相对于公路中线倾斜而增加的宽度。对于宽度为24英尺的道路,增加的宽度很小,可以忽略。只有当设计车速为30mile/h,且曲度大于22℃时,加宽可达2英尺。然而,对于较窄的路面,即使是在较平缓的曲线路段上,加宽也是很重要推荐加宽值及加宽设计见《公路线形设计》

2、纵坡线

公路的竖向线形及其对车辆运行的安全性和经济性的影响构成了公路设计中最重要的要素之一。竖向线形由直线和竖向抛物线或圆曲线组成,称为纵坡线。纵坡线从水平线逐渐上升时称为坡度变化的影响。

在确定坡度时最理想的情况是挖方与填方平衡,没有大量的借方或弃方。所有运土都尽可能下坡运并且距离不长,坡度应随地形而变,并且与既有排水系统的升、降方向一致。在山区,坡度要使得挖填平衡以使总成本最低。在平原或草原地区,坡度与地表近似平行,介是高于地表足够的高度,以利于路面排水,苦有必要,可利用风力来清除表面积雪。如公路接近或沿河流走行,纵坡线的高度由预期洪水位来决定。无论在何种情况下,平缓连续的坡度线要比由短直线段连接短竖曲线构成的不断变向的坡度线好得多。

由上坡向下坡变化的路段应设在挖方路段,而由下坡向上坡变化的路段应设在填方路段,这样的线形设计较好,往往可以避免形成与现状地貌相反的圭堆或是凹地。与挖填方平衡相比,在确定纵坡线时,其他考虑则重要得多。

城市项目通常比农村项目要求对控制要素进行更详尽的研究,对高程进行更细致地调整。一般来说,设计与现有条件相符的坡度较好,这样可避免一些不必要的花费。

在坡度的分析和控制中,坡度对机动车运行费用的影响是最重要的考虑因素之一。坡度增大油耗显然增大,车速就要减慢。一个较为经济的方案则可使坡度减小而增加的年度成本与坡度不减而增加的车辆运行年度成本之间相平衡。这个问题的准确方法取决于对交通流量和交通类型的了解,这只有通过交通调查才能获知。

在不同的州,最大纵坡也相差悬殊,AASHTO标准建议由设计车速和地形来选择最大纵坡。现行设计以设计车速为70mile/h时最大纵坡为5%,设计车速30mile/h时,根据地形不同,最大纵坡一般为7%-12%。当采用较长的待续爬坡时,在没有为慢行车辆提供爬坡道时,坡长不能够超过临界坡长。临界坡长可从3%纵坡的1700英尺变化至8%纵坡的500英尺。

持续长坡的坡度必须小于公路任何一个断面的最大坡度,通常将长的持续单一纵坡断开,设计成底部为一陡坡,而接近坡顶则让坡度减小。同时还要避免由于断面倾斜而造成的视野受阻。调整公路的最大纵坡为9%只有当路面排水成问题时,如水必须排至边沟或排水沟,最小坡度标准才显示其重要性。这种情况下,AASHTO标准建议最小坡度为0.35%。
