Drainage Engineering and Design

Drainage engineering is the Key Discipline to provide an efficient drainage system for any Infrastructure Project. In Road Projects, Drainage Systems are known as Sub-surface Systems and are designed to remove surface water from the road which would otherwise lead to flooding if not managed satisfactorily. The course modules provide detailed drainage system design process, Outfall Design, Network Modelling, Attenuation System Design and a brief overview of Sustainable Drainage Systems. Please see the Promotional Course Videos for a quick flavour. The first module covers the key components of Drainage Engineering, Drainage Strategy, Drainage Design, Outfall Design, Attenuation System Design. The second module covers drainage design process from the collection of surface water to discharge to the outfall locations such as existing watercourses. The module also covers the flood risk assessment process and Drainage Network Design, Gully Spacing, Kerb drains, and drainage modelling. The third module covers outfall design and Surface Water Storage System. The module covers Outfall types, Attenuation Ponds, Oversize Career Pipes and Flow control devices. The fourth module covers drainage standard details such as drainage kerbs, manholes, bus stop drainage kerbs, gullies, slot drains and Hydro-brakes.

Fundamentals of P-Way Engineering

P-way Design involves the design, construction, operation and maintenance of Light Rail Transit (LRT), Heavy Rail Transit (MRT) and Highspeed Rail (Bullet Trains) to ensure safe and effective transportation of people and goods. The course modules share P-way or LRT Design in a detailed manner. The course has covered key industry of P-Way Design, Elements of P-Way such as LRV Bumpers, vehicle dynamic envelops, etc. The course module the design process track, horizontal design, vertical design, superelevation, the speed at curves, and track components, etc. The course also covers different type of Track Forms such as Ballasted Track Forms, Embedded Tracks. Along with this, the course covers key features of Tram Stop, type of stops, surface finish, etc. In the First Module, we have commenced the course with the key industry of P-Way Design. The module then explained the features of Tram like LRV vehicles, pantographs, crash energy management (CEM), LRV Bumpers, vehicle dynamic envelopes, platform clearance, etc. In the Second Module, we have described Track horizontal design and covers link and curve section design, superelevation or cant deficiency and superelevation unbalance. The course module has also described how to define the speed of LRT Track at curves and the categories of speed at curves such as overturning speed, safe speed, maximum authorised speed and signal speed. In the third module, we have described Track vertical alignment design and covers vertical gradient, crest curves, sag curves design along with design guidelines and design formulas. Thereafter, the module has described trackwork component such as Turnouts, Crossovers, Switches, Cross-Rails, Frogs, check-rails, and Pocket Tracks. In the fourth module, we have described LRT Track forms, stiffness of track, and track modulus. Thereafter, the modules have described various Track forms such as Ballasted Track, Direct Fix Track, Embedded Track, Floating Track and Tracks in the transition zone. The module has also covered various forms of Track Sleepers such as Timber Sleeper and Pre-cast concrete sleepers. The module described the formula to determine the spacing and factors of the sleepers that affect sleeper spacings. In the Fifth Module, we have described LRT Tram STOP design and its types like Island Platform and Side Platform. The Module then covers components of Tram Stop such as shelter, walkways, ramps, steps, signages, lighting, Passenger Information, etc. It has also covered the Platform surface finish and Tactile. In the Sixth Module, we have described the Tram signal system, signal equipment, traction power system, distribution system, substation system and catenary system. Within the Tram Signal System, we have covered the switch machine, impedance bonds, loops and transponders, wheel detectors, axle counters, etc.

Traffic Engineering

Traffic Engineering uses the latest techniques to provide safe and efficient movement of traffic along the Road links and junctions. The Course Module shares key aspects of the Traffic Engineering Discipline and Traffic Engineering Analysis, and Design Process. The course also covers Car Park Design, Road Safety Audits, Road Marking and Sign Design and Urban Street Design. Please see the Promotional Course Videos for a quick flavour. The course will fast-track your career as a Traffic Engineer. The first module “Traffic Studies” covers the traffic analysis process which is required for Pre-Bid Advisory Projects or DPR Projects and covers traffic volume analysis, origin and destination survey, modal distribution, junction turning movement survey, traffic forecasting and revenue estimation. The second module covers Car Park Study and Design Process. It covers key stages such as Parking & Traffic Survey, Parking Demand, Conceptual Parking Layout. It covers all four stages of Parking and Traffic Surveys. The module also provides a detailed process of car park design process for a new greenfield project. The third module covers the Road Safety Audit (RSA) and the key stages of RSA. Once you understand all stage of Road Safety Audit, you will get to know how to carry out a road safety audit of an unsafe junction. The module also shares key design principles to improve an urban road junction. The fourth module covers the complete understanding of road marking design including the reasons for placing a certain type of road marking in a particular situation. The module also covers a detailed design process of White Road Marking Design, Yellow Road Marking Design, Warning Signs Design, Regulatory Signs Design, Directional Signs Design and TTM Sign Provision. The fifth module provides a complete understanding of Urban Street Design to cover design of cycle Facility, crossing Types such as Toucan Crossing, Puffin Crossing, Pelican Crossing and disable road users friendly design.

Road Restraint System Design

Road Restraint Systems are designed to reduce the severity of injuries if a vehicle leaves the carriageway and would otherwise encounter a hazardous feature (such as on-coming vehicles, an embankment, a lighting column, trees, etc.). The Course Module shares key aspects of Road Restraint System (RRS) Design Process, RRS Examples, Innovations and RRS Standard Details. Please see the Promotional Course Videos for a quick flavour. The first module covers all types of RRS systems like flexible system, semi-rigid barriers, rigid barriers and bridge parapet. It also covers RRS family such as vehicle restraint system and pedestrian restraint system. It covers RRS appraisal process and various situations where RRS would be a preferable solution like embankment, cutting, single hazards, culverts, etc. The second module covers Road Restraint System terminologies such as containment levels, working width, set back distance, types of terminals, Length of needs, etc The third module covers Road Restraint System examples, visibility criteria, transition barriers, etc. The fourth volume covers lesson learnt in various cases such as missing working width, missing set back, missing transition barrier and broken terminals. It also covers Innovative solution like Rolling Barriers, Crash Cushions and Noise Barriers. The fifth module covers Road Restraint System standard details of the concrete barrier, steel barrier, wire rope barrier and terminals.
