Calculation of Droop Radius and Other Geometrical Parameters

This document contains calculations to determine geometric parameters for a radial beam project with a required plate drooping. It calculates the radius, total included angle of segments, vertical distance, and other values based on given dimensions and equations. The radius is determined to be 12500050.00mm and total included angle is 0.45791 degrees. It also makes a small correction for a node mismatch and provides additional resulting values like overall depth and slope details.
