The following illustration describes the Outside of Curve pivot method for a dual crowned carriageway.
Distorted Central Reserve means when superelevation is applied, the central reserve width remains that same, but either side raises or lowers to accommodate the superelevation. This option distorts the central reserve shape, and the pivot points maintain their original position.
