Determining Optimum Maximum Superelevation for Highway Geometric Design Based on Side Friction Factor and Lateral Acceleration in Horizontal Curves

Highway horizontal curves are particularly hazardous, with higher accident rates than straight sections. AASHTO offers superelevation guidelines but leaves the final choice to engineers, leading to inconsistent designs. Previous studies often overlook vertical grades and vehicle-specific properties,...
