Equidistance Principle

The Equidistance Principle states that when designing aligned structures like roads, railways, or pipelines, they should be positioned so that they are equally spaced from each other along their entire length. This ensures consistent separation, safety, and efficiency. Essentially, it’s about maintaining uniform distances between aligned features to prevent overlaps or confusion, allowing for smooth operation and easier planning during construction and maintenance. This principle helps engineers create organized, safe, and functional layouts by ensuring that each element remains evenly spaced throughout their alignment.
