Signal Design

Traffic Signals are the control system to improve intersection operations, capacity, and junction safety. The course module provides a detailed process of Traffic Signal Design. It also covers the key aspects of signal phasing, signal timing, etc. The course will open a new window for students to consider Traffic Signal Designer role as a career opportunity. The first module explained the reason for providing traffic signals at junction. then it covers traffic signal terminologies such as storage lane, acceleration lane, splitter islands, pedestrian refuge area, signal heads and their types, signal hoods, signal poles and their types. The second module provided details of Traffic Signal Phasing, Signal Cycle Time and Right Turn Phasing. It also covers pedestrian phasing details and how to prepare and read traffic signal drawings. The third module covers the concept of signal timing with respect to Pre-determined Fix Signal Timing and Actuated Signal Timing. It also covers the relationship of Cycle Length with Queuing and provides detail process of cycle Length Calculation. It covers the detail process of amber time calculation and provides Thumb rule recommendation for cycle length. Lastly, it covers key features to improve pedestrian crossing facilities by using latest technologies.

REVIT Structure

REVIT Structure is Autodesk' software for Structure Design or Structure Engineering. Revit performs structural analysis and exports the structural analysis and design by using the analytical model. REVIT simplifies the process to create structural details from a 3D model. It enables connecting to multiple structural analysis applications. It accelerates construction Modelling and that assists to gain better construction vision from the 3D Model. The first module covers Introduction to REVIT, its advantages and its basic settings. The second module covers the Interface of REVIT and functions. It discusses workspaces like project browser tab, property tab, toolbar tabs, etc The third module covers the usage of different toolbars in REVIT such as structure, system, analyse, massing & site, etc in a detailed manner. The fourth module covers REVIT Architecture Plan development. The module shows how to develop REVIT Architecture Plan (Ground Floor), 3D model development, etc. The fifth module covers the REVIT Architecture Plan development of upper floors. It module shows how to develop REVIT Architecture Plan (first floor, rooftop), staircase, 3D model development, etc. The sixth module covers dimensioning, tagging, naming each component of the building. The module also covers the placement of the furniture in each room, electrical appliances, etc. Finally, the module shows how to develop a sheet layout of plans, elevations and isometric views. The seventh module covers structure framing, structure modelling, foundation modelling, etc. The module also covers the modelling of beams, columns and slabs. The eighth module covers footing development and detailing. The module shows how to provide concrete reinforcement and steel bars within the footings. The ninth module covers columns, beams, slabs development and detailing. The module shows how to provide concrete reinforcement and steel bars within the columns, beams and slabs.

Tunnel Engineering

Road tunnels are alternative ways, to cross a physical obstruction such as a mountain, or river, etc. Tunnels are considered as a viable solution, to minimize environmental impact, noise pollution, air pollution compare to the elevated viaduct. It is also intact the historical spirit of the location, such as archaeological value, conservation of endangered species and natural habitat. Our Tunnel Engineering course modules are designed to cover all key aspects of Tunnel Engineering. It covers the definition of a tunnel, its shape, criteria of tunnel consideration, type of tunnels, tunnel lining, tunnel construction engineering, rock tunnelling, soft-ground tunnelling, etc. The first module starts with shapes and elements of tunnels, criteria of tunnel consideration such as ground condition, environmental impact, land use restriction, constructability, sustainable development, etc. The module then shares the types of tunnels based on the method of construction such as cut and cover tunnels, bored tunnels, soft ground tunnels, immersed tunnels, jacked box tunnels. The second module covers the horizontal and vertical design of tunnel alignment, cross-section element, geotechnical Investigation and details of cut and covers tunnel. The third module covers rock tunnelling and soft-ground tunnelling. The module explains how rock behaves, fails and rock failure mechanism. The module then explains rock tunnelling methods like drill and blast method, tunnel boring machine (TBM), and road headers method. The module also covers soft ground tunnelling methods like shield tunnelling, slurry tunnelling, sequential Excavation Method (SEM), The fourth module covers tunnel lining and tunnel construction engineering. Tunnel linings are installed for reasons like providing ground support, maintain the tunnel opening, limit the inflow of groundwater, provide a base, for the finished exposed surface of the tunnel, etc. The module covers the key points of tunnel design consideration like lining stiffness, and deformation, durability, high-density concrete, corrosion protection, lining joints, etc. The module also covers the reasons for lining stiffness, deformation and mitigation measures. Lastly, the module covers key aspects of tunnel construction engineering such as Constructability, Construction Sequencing, Mucking and Disposal and Health & Safety.

Fundamentals of Road Lighting Design

Road Lighting Engineering involves the design, construction, operation & maintenance of Road Light and associated infrastructure to ensure adequate and uniform lighting levels are provided for drivers and pedestrians safety. Road lighting design supports lighting engineers to develop a lighting model to remove dark spots, provide a clear view of the road and associated infrastructure to provide a desirable minimum illumination for all road users. The first module covers key industry of road lighting engineering, basic principles of road lighting design, site assessment criteria before initiating lighting design and lighting terminologies. Within lighting terminologies, we have covered set back distance, arm Length, mounting height, straight vertical distance, candela (cd), footcandle (fc), Illuminance (E), luminance (L), lux (lx), the lumen (lm). The second module covers the basics of lighting design, luminaire selection, road lighting mounting options. The primary methods of lighting design are luminance method and Illuminance method. The module also recommends the illuminance level, for various road types, junction types, mid-block crossings, etc. The module also covers the concept BUG Rating System that provides a numerical rating of the luminaire light distribution as it applies to the lighting trespass up light and glare. The third module covers lighting column protection measures. passively safe lighting columns, road lighting cable network, smart lighting systems and road lighting maintenance regime. When lighting columns are placed very close to the road edge or at a vulnerable location, it is highly possible to be crashed by an errant vehicle? There are two possible ways to protect it, by placing road restraint system or by using passively safe lighting columns. The module has described both measures in detail. The module also describes the smart road lighting system such as LoRaWAN. The fourth volume covers the features of LED Lighting, advantages of LED lighting, implementation of LED lighting and LED adoption challenges. LED lights are diodes that emit high-quality light with high lumen efficacy and high lumen outputs. The module has described LED lighting and all associated features in detail. The fifth module covers standard details of lighting columns, LED lanterns, feeder pillars and chambers. We have also provided a bonus section where we have shared 20 interview questions & tips for fresh civil engineer jobs. It will help newbie civil engineers to better prepare for job interviews.
