The Transition Spiral and Its Introduction to Railway Curves with Field Exercises in Construction and Alignment is a technical book written by Arthur Lovat Higgins in 1922. The book is focused on the design and construction of railway curves. The author introduces the concept of the transition spiral, which is a mathematical curve used to smoothly connect straight sections of track to curved sections. The book provides a detailed explanation of the theory behind the transition spiral and its application in railway construction. In addition to theory, the book includes practical field exercises for construction and alignment. These exercises are designed to help engineers and railway workers understand the principles of curve design and construction. Overall, The Transition Spiral and Its Introduction to Railway Curves with Field Exercises in Construction and Alignment is a comprehensive guide for anyone involved in railway construction and maintenance. It is a valuable resource for engineers, surveyors, and railway workers who want to improve their understanding of curve design and construction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
