Course Objectives:
To provide a coherent development to the students for thecourses in sector of Engineering like Transportation & Traffic Engineering etc.
To present the foundations of many basic Engineering tools and concepts related Highway Engineering.
To give an experience in the implementation of Engineering concepts which are applied in field of Transportation Engineering
To involve the application of scientific and technological principles of planning, analysis, design and management to highway engineering
Course Syllabus:-
1. Highway Introduction, Planning &Development Highway planning in India, Development, Rural and urban roads, Road departments in India, Road classification, Road authorities i.e. IRC, CRRI, NHAI,NHDPetc
2. Highway Alignment & Surveys:Reconnaissance, Aerial surveys, Location surveys, Location of bridges, Problems in rural and urban areas.Highway drawings & reportsHighway project preparation
3. Highway Geometric Design Topography and physical features, Cross section elements like carriageway width, formation width, right of way, etc., friction, Light reflecting characteristics, roughness, camber, sight distances, horizontal alignment, design speed, minimum radius, super-elevation, transition curve, gradients, design of summit and valley curves
4. Highway Construction MaterialsAggregates and their types, physical and engineering properties, Fillers, Bitumen, Characteristics, Emulsions and cutbacks, Basic tests on all materials.
5. Highway Construction Construction of various types of roads, Joints in cement concrete pavements,Road side development: Arboriculture, street lighting.
6. Design of Highway Pavements Design of flexible (G.I. method and CBR method using million standard axles) and rigid pavements (Fatigue concept of pavement design), Maintenance of pavements

8. Highway Economics & FinanceFinancing of road projects, administration of roads, PPP models, Road safety audit, Methods of economic evaluation of highway projects
9. Traffic EngineeringRoad user characteristics, vehicular characteristics, traffic flow characteristics, speed, traffic volume studies, parking studies -definition, purpose, types, survey methods. Accident studies -purpose, types, causes, collision diagram, condition diagram, preventive measures. Traffic control devices like pavement marking, signs, signals. Traffic management, various types of intersection and their designconcept
Detail knowledge of Geometric Design of Expressway & Advanced Transportation Engineering will make you expert, also you will be taught higher design consideration and parameters for expressways. You will also learn Geometric Design for HIGHWAYS and RAILWAYS on advanced bentley software. The course will also include case study of super communication expressway. The course will also include case study of super communication expressway.
THIS COURSE CONTAINS TOTAL SIX MODULES, EACH MODULE IS HAVING VARIOUS SUBTOPICS EXPLAINED. THIS COURSE IS BEST SUITABLE FOR THE STUDENTS WHO FIND THIS SUBJECT AS DIFFICULT, BECAUSE ALL THE COMPLEX PROBLEMS ARE DISCUSSED IN SIMPLE MANNER ON CLOUD WHITEBOARD TECHNOLOGY, ALSO ADVANCED POWER POINT PRESENTATIONS, ANIMATIONS ARE USED SO AS STUDENTS SHOULD UNDERSTAND IN EASIEST WAY..
Design of Cross Section for Highways and Railways. (More E-Content will be updated on regular basis).
