PLOTTING THE PLAN VIEW. Plotting
the plan view of a highway is similar to a
traverse except for the
introduction of topographic details, curves,
and curve data. As a study of highway curves
and curve data is beyond the scope of this TRAMAN
(but will be studied at the EA2 level), suffice
it to say that the important elements of the
curve are shown in the form of notes at each curve
point. (See the plan view, figure 14-22.)
