The book presents engineering concepts, techniques, practices,
principles, standard procedures, and models that are applied and
used to design and evaluate traffic systems, road pavement
structures, alternatives of transportation systems, roadway
horizontal and vertical alignments to ultimately achieve safety,
sustainability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The book
provides plentiful number of problems on five major areas of
transportation engineering and includes broad range of ideas and
practical problems that are included in all topics of the book.
Furthermore, the book covers problems dealing with theory,
concepts, practice, and applications. The solution of each problem
in the book follows a step-by-step procedure that includes the
theory and the derivation of the formulas in some cases and the
computations. Moreover, almost all problems in the five parts of
the book include detailed calculations that are solved using the MS
Excel worksheets where mathematical, trigonometric, statistical,
and logical formulas are used to obtain a more rapid and efficient
solution. In some cases, the MS Excel solver tool is used for
solving complex equations in several problems of the book.
Additionally, numerical methods, linear algebraic methods, and
least squares regression techniques are utilized in some problems
to assist in solving the problem and make the solution much easier.
The book will help academics and professionals to find practical
solutions across the spectrum of transportation engineering. The
book is designed to be informative and filled with an abundance of
solutions to problems in the engineering science of transportation.
It is expected that the book will enrich the knowledge and science
in transportation engineering, thereby elevating the civil
engineering profession in general and the transportation
engineering practice in particular as well as advancing the
transportation engineering field to the best levels possible.
