Sinossi

1. Write-up for the back cover and brochure: Transportation Engineering conforms to the syllabus of transportation engineering prescribed by AICTE for the undergraduate students of civil engineering. The book includes the latest IRC codes and discusses in detail the functional system characteristics of highway development and planning. It delineates the highway standards and constraints to be considered for arriving at an optimal geometric design for efficient vehicular and pedestrian traffic. It also explains the analysis of different types of vehicle and traffic data collected as part of pavement, component and function studies. 2. Write-up for the website and catalogue: Transportation Engineering covers the design and functional aspects of highway engineering and design. Concise and thorough in its treatment of topics, the book elucidates the methods of highway development and planning, while also examining the choice of pavement materials based on usage criteria. Conforming to the AICTE syllabus and designed for undergraduate students of civil engineering, this book is spread across eleven chapters and includes the latest IRC codes in its discussion of the topics.
