Three Point Curve

Curve 3 Point Curve

.

The Three Point Curve screen will compute the details of a curve

when three points of the curve are specified; the PC, PT and any
other point on the curve; or the PC, PT and radius point.

First point: is the first point from the current
job that defines the curve. The specified point

can be either the PC or the Radius Point by
selecting the appropriate radio button.

Note: The selection made for the first point
determines the available choices in the
remaining fields.

Pt. on Curve: is any point that lies on the
curve between the PC and PT.

PC: is the point that defines the beginning of the curve (Point of
Curvature).
PT: is the point that defines the end of the curve (Point of Tangency).
