SYNOPSIS   

This seminar aims to provide aspiring civil engineering students, fresh graduates, or junior road engineers with an overview of the planning, design, and layout of a roadway's visible features to ensure safe, efficient, and comfortable traffic movement. The effective road geometric design enhances safety, efficiency, and driver comfort while mitigating environmental impacts.

The key components of road geometric design include horizontal and vertical alignment, cross-sections, intersections, and sight distance considerations.

This seminar provides an overview of highway design. Participants will be taught basic geometric highway design (mainline) and at-grade intersection design

This seminar will cover:

•  Introduction to Highway & Road Design
•  Geometric Highway Design (Mainline)
•  At-Grade Intersection Design

Who Could Benefit from This Seminar

•  Government Agencies/Bodies/Local Authorities
•  C&S Consultant Engineers
•  Property Developers
•  Design Engineers
•  Contractors and Sub-contractors
•  Researchers
•  Lecturers
•  Undergraduate / Postgraduate Students

In summary, road geometric design is a critical aspect of civil engineering that focuses on the physical characteristics of a road. It ensures that roads are safe, functional, and efficient for all users.
