Formula for Length & Breadth

LENGTH

= Straight + 2xMDR + 2x(8Lanesx1.22m)+ Extra space (2x5m)= 84.39 + 2x36.50 + 2x(9.76) + 10= 84.39 + 73.00 + 19.52 + 10= 186.91m

BREADTH

= 2xMDR + 2x(8Lanesx1.22m)+ Extra space (2x5m)= 2x36.50 + 2x(9.76) + 10= 73.00 + 19.52 + 10= 102.52m

Required Field for 400m Track Length Wise

Space for 16 lanes = 9.76 x 2 = 19.52mMDR both curves = 36.50 x 2 = 73.00m Length of Straight = 84.39 = 84.39m Extra space both sides = 5 x 2 = 10.00m Total Length = 186.91m

Required Field for 400m Track Width Wise

Space for 16Lanes = 9.76 x 2 = 19.52m MDR both curves = 36.50x2 = 73mExtra space = 5x2 = 10m Total Width required = 102.52m

Measure the Length and Width of the given Area

What is Curve Radius?1 curve = 115.61m

2 curve = 115.61 + 115.61 = 231.22m2 curves a means a full circle.Circumference of circle = 2r

231.22 m = 2 x 3.1416 x r r = 231.22 6.2832

r = 36.79972Running distance radius = 36.80m

How to find out the Marking distance Radius?

If the border is cemented or concrete, then we deduct 30 cm. from the running distance radius.

RDR = 36.80 mMDR = RDR – 30 cm.MDR = 36.80 – 30 cm.MDR = 36.50 m

If the border is not cemented then we deduct 20 cm. from the RDR.

RDR = 36.80 mMDR = 36.80 – 20 cm. MDR = 36.60 m

Find the Centre Point of the given area by marking Two Diagonal Lines

from each corner of the Field.
