Data Description

Command

13

Computes the Radius Point (RP), Point of Curvature (PC) and Point of Tangency (PT) of the fillet for almost every fillet condition.

The centerline radius points must have been computed using the 11 command or stored using the 14 command.

Note: The only fillet condition that is not computed is when a curved centerline passes through the centerline intersection but does not extend past the fillet. In this case, a dummy intersection point must be computed on the tangents and is used in place of the true intersection.

Set

1

Point number assigned to the fillet's radius point. The fillet PC and PT are computed and automatically numbered in order.

Widths

60, 50

Consists of two entries indicating the street widths. They must be entered clockwise around each fillet.

Radius

25

Radius of the fillet.

CL-Defined

5, 7, 6

Consists of three values which define the intersecting centerlines for each fillet. These three values are determined as follows.

If the centerlines are tangent in the vicinity of the required fillet, the points on centerline are entered as follows:
  • 1st point lies on the tangent directed toward the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.
  • 2nd point is the previously set point of intersection of the centerlines.
  • 3rd point lies on the centerline directed away from the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.

If the centerlines are curved in the vicinity of the required fillet, the centerline is defined as follows:
  • 1st point is the radius point of the curve directed toward the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.
  • 2nd point is the previously set point of intersection of the centerlines.
  • 3rd point is the radius point of the centerline curve which is directed away from the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.

Note: If the centerline deflects to the right, the point number is entered as a positive value. If the centerline deflects to the left, the point number is entered as a negative value.

If a curved centerline intersects a tangent centerline, the centerline is defined as follows:
  • 1st point is the radius point of the curved centerline directed toward the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.
  • 2nd point is the previously set point of intersection of the centerlines.
  • 3rd point is a point that lies on the tangent centerline directed away from the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.

If a tangent centerline intersects a curved centerline, the centerline is defined as follows:
  • 1st point is a point that lies on the tangent centerline directed toward the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.
  • 2nd point is the previously set point of intersection of the centerlines.
  • 3rd point is the radius point of the curved centerline which is directed away from the centerline intersection as the fillet is turned clockwise.


{[Set
CL-Defined]... }

10
9, 7, 8

Repeating feature of the 13 command. Additional fillets can be computed by entering a new point number for the new radius fillet and point numbers defining the centerlines of the streets intersecting to form the new fillet.

The radius of the fillet must be identical with the previously entered radius. The intersecting streets must also have the same right-of-way width and be defined in the same order as was previously entered.

End Command

All commands end with a semi-colon.
