A method for approximately determining the uncompensated centrifugal acceleration in transition curves has been proposed. The formula for calculation of cant (superelevation) in circle curve has been used, in which the radius of curvature and cant in a given point of transition curve are unknown. Linear Approximations, Calculus Methods and interpolation have been used for finding the mentioned values. A computer tables for easiness of the calculations have been created.
