There are many different types of transition curves but...
'Transition Curve', a simple tool used to understand the sorts of issues people might be facing during change
A track transition curve, transition spiral, or spiral easement, is a mathematically calculated Euler spiral fitted between a straight (also known as tangent) and a circular curve on a section of rail track or highway.

What is curve ranging?
In highways, railways, or canals the curve are provided for smooth or gradual change in direction due the nature of terrain, cultural features, or other unavoidable reasons. In highway practice, it is recommended to provide curves deliberately on straight route to break the monotony in driving on long straight route to avoid accidents. The horizontal curve may be a simple circular curve or a compound curve. For a smooth transition between straight and a curve, a transition or easement curve is provided. The vertical curves are used to provide a smooth change in direction taking place in the vertical plane due to change of grade.
Why is a transition curve required in a railway track?
Not being an engineer but having worked at a narrow-gauge and diesel railway theme park, I know that it was because of the mountain curves that narrow-gauge rails were used in logging to accommodate them because the larger gauge rails could not; "transition curve" sounds like it's a very gradual turn that ever narrows into the required tighter radius.
What is super elevation in road Construction?
Superelevation in road construction refers to the banking of a roadway at a curve to counteract the lateral acceleration experienced by vehicles. This design feature helps vehicles maintain traction and stability while navigating turns, reducing the risk of skidding. The degree of superelevation is determined by factors such as the curve's radius, design speed, and road conditions. Proper superelevation improves safety and enhances the overall driving experience.
What is the purpose of pointing up brickwork?
Apart from tidying up the look of the bricks and mortar, pointing up puts a slight slope or curve on the mortar to prevent rain water from settling.
What is a walling trowel?
A walling trowel is a hand tool used primarily in masonry and bricklaying. It features a flat, rectangular blade with a slight curve, allowing for efficient spreading and shaping of mortar or plaster on walls. The handle is typically made of wood or plastic, providing a comfortable grip for the user. This tool is essential for achieving smooth finishes and proper adhesion when working on vertical surfaces.
