Parameter | Definition |
---|---|
BULB | Creates a curve that is greater than 180°. |
radius | The distance from a center point to the curve. Enter this value in the current survey database distance units. Use a negative radius to draw the curve in a counter-clockwise (left) direction. |
chord bearing | The desired bearing. Enter this value in the current survey database angular units, either DMS, grads, decimal degrees, mils, or radians. |
quadrant | Specify the quadrant using one of the following numbers: 1 (for NE), 2 (for SE), 3 (for SW), or 4 (for NW). |
chord distance | The distance from the current vertex in the figure. Enter this value in the current survey database distance units. |
