For (WB-15[WB -50]) Intermediate Semitrailer ( Tractor Trailer), Turning Radius Path is as given in image WB-50_1
How to draw the path of rear right wheel of Trailer on paper by self, Which logics we need to use to draw this path. I also want to know the formula to calculate centerline turning radius of Intermediate Semitrailer.

 
This thesis by TW Erkert has a great discussion on it, He discussed the Society of Automotive Engineers' "Sum of Squares of Wheelbases" and other agencies' empirical methods. My temptation would be to scan and scale the WB50's template in CAD :).
