Highway Drawings with CAD

“Highway Drawings with CAD” course covers details process of drawing creation considering highways features as the prerequisite. Preparation of highway drawings, needs to use various xrefs such as highway xref, road marking xref, pavement xrefs, etc. The course provides a comprehensive process to create highway drawing from scratch to printing final PDFs. The first module provides the operation process of the X-ref manager. It provides all the details of subcommands within xref window and how to operate it. It also demonstrates the process to create an xref and how to attach it with other drawings. The second module provides an operation process of drawings sheet production. It covers the process to set the drawing layouts with xrefs and then provides the details of sheet layout setting along with printer setting. Lastly, it covers the printing PDF process to generate hard copy drawings. The third module runs a pilot to generate pavement drawings. it covers step by step process to create pavement xref, layer creation of each pavement types, sheet layout setting, title frame setting, legend, notes, scale setting and finally printing drawings as PDF process.

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.

MS Project - Basics

A Project is an undertaking, carried out individually or collectively as a team to achieve a goal. Every company or firm carry out projects activities every day either properly or casually. Every project requires detailed project planning in order to run the project more effectively and efficiently. Project planning provides organizations with a framework for scoping projects, sequencing activities, utilizing resources, and minimizing risks. This is a basic course covering key concepts of project planning using MS Project as a tool. A hands-on civil engineering project program is developed and step by step process is explained for the student to learn how to plan, analyse, and manage projects. Students will witness state-of-the-art methodologies to develop the project program. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching MS Project, start-up window, quick access toolbar, Ribbons and Menu, Options settings, etc. The second module provides a quick process to develop a civil engineering project with key design tasks. The course then explains the key parameters of a task and how one task is linked with another task. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. In the third module, students will learn task dependencies. How the function like start to start or start to finish etc works. The course also provides details of task constraint in civil engineering project environment and how to incorporate that in the project program. The fourth module provides a detailed process of sub-task development and how to link those sub-tasks within the main task. The course develops a situation where a sub-task comes with a constraint and explain the process to deal with the constraint without impacting the project duration. The project belongs to a civil engineering environment so it would be very useful for a student to correlate it with real-time project scenarios. The fifth module provides a detailed process of splitting a task. This is extremely critical for a task if it needs to be delivered in phases due to interlinking with other tasks. The course also provides a process of task formatting to make it unique against other tasks to easily identify it. The sixth module details out the meaning of free slack in the program and its advantage. The module explains the process of how to utilise free slack in a project program to effectively add any new task without affecting the overall duration of the project. The seventh module details the process of resource allocation. In this module, resources are assigned for a particular task of a civil engineering project and team members of different grades are assigned to carry out a task. The process will assist the student to understand how to assign a time frame to all team members to complete a task. The eighth module provides a detailed process of optimising resources. By doing this, key members of the team could be free up for carrying out another project. This would help the project team to efficiently utilize limited resources at any given time.

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.
