Description
Highway Engineering, Second Edition continues to educate highway engineers on when to build a new highway or make improvements to an existing highway, and what components are necessary to ensure an efficient and safe highway. The book's nine-part treatment begins with a clear and rigorous exposition of highway engineering concepts including project development, the relationship between planning, operations, and safety, and highway types. The book also includes important topics such as corridor selection and traverses, horizontal and vertical alignment, design controls, basic roadway design, cross section elements, intersection and interchange design, and the integration of new vehicle technologies and trends. In addition, the book provides computer exercises using AutoCAD Civil 3D computer tools to generate, evaluate and produce innovative designs solutions, and end of chapter exercises. This updated edition with the current design policies and reference manuals is essential for highway, transportation, and civil engineers who are required to work to these standards. Updated with the current design standards from the Highway Capacity Manual and the Green Book Covers fundamental traffic flow relationships and traffic impact analysis, collision analysis, road safety audits, and advisory speeds Provides the latest applications and other engineering considerations for highway planning, design and construction
