Theoretical Cant in Railways Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Theoretical Cant in Railways?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

e th = e Cant + D Cant

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

e th = 11.25cm + 5cm

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

e th = 11.25 + 5

Next Step Evaluate

∴

e th = 0.1625m

LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit

∴

e th = 16.25cm
