The course will lead to an understanding of the fundamental principles governing the design of road engineering projects including technical and environmental constraints (first part); by carrying out the calculations and producing the required drawings of the different geometrical design of the road project. The course, in the second part, will cover the required knowledge for the full design of all required geometrical characteristics of a road project including horizontal layout, vertical layout, cross sections, section areas calculations, earthwork volume diagrams and volume calculations, speed and superelevation diagrams.
