As beforera = Am =c^ cos J<i, and rA =am^ =c^ sin ^d\ Also sz = An^ =ccosK, and %A=2yi,=csinid, in which ((f+c?)=Z).The points z and a being determined on the ground, aa maybe computed and set off as before and the curve continued in § 30. ALIGNMENT. 29 full stations. A subchord at the end of the curve may be locatedby a similar process. 30. Curve location by offsets from the long chord. (Fig. 16.)Consider at once the general case in which the curve commenceswith a subchord (curvature, d)j continues with one or more full.
