When done with alignment geometry, click on Calculate Applied Cant.
The command reads alignments calculation speed and calculates applied cant for each curve accordingly. Calculate applied cant is not necessary if we create a tangent polygon with the command Draw tangent polygon. In this case, the command calculates applied cant automatically. We simply skip that step.
Set parameters in the dialog box for calculating applied cant values.
Set current alignment.
Specify applied cant calculation method (three options).
- Applied Cant table: applied cant values are obtained from LRA_CantTable.xml file
- Calculation parameters: applied cant values are calculated with calculation equation parameters.
- User-defined Applied Cant values.
Specify Rotation point (Inside rail, Outside rail, Rail track alignment)
