Hire a civil engineer the one I work with can figure it out very easily. The question is how big of a trailer and tractor do you design for. I know of several places that were ok for 40' trailers but are now a ##### with a 53' trailer. One place makes you drop the trailer and they have a mule spot it.

 

Those are the files I emailed her. Actual radius' of everything from a 20' straight to a 53' semi

 

Can you email me the files?

 

Have you got a way to use DWG. Files?

 

I use Acad 2004

 

send me an email address and I'll forward them on to you then.
