Transportation Engineering: Planning and Design

Bag om Transportation Engineering: Planning and Design

Transportation engineering refers to the use of scientific principles and technology to operate, plan, manage and create functional design of facilities for different modes of transportation. It aims to provide comfortable, economical, safe, rapid, convenient, efficient and environment friendly transportation for people and goods. It is involved in the planning, designing, building, maintaining and operating transportation facilities, which facilitate railroad, water, air, pipeline, highway and space transportation. The designing aspects of transportation engineering encompass determining the size of transportation facilities, and identifying the materials and thickness utilized in pavement design of the roadway. The planning aspects in transportation engineering are connected to urban planning and entail technical forecasting decisions as well as political considerations. The technical forecast of passenger travel typically contains an urban transportation planning model, which involves the assessment of mode choice, trip generation, route assignment and trip distribution. This book elucidates the planning and design aspects with respect to transportation engineering. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
