Chapter Four:
Geometric Design of Highway Facilities
Introduction:
The chapter introduces the geometric design of roadways. Geometric design deals with the dimensioning of the elements of roadways, such as horizontal and vertical curves, cross sections, truck climbing lanes, bicycle paths, and parking facilities.
The characteristics of driver and pedestrian, vehicle, and road, as discussed in Chapter 2, serve as the basis for determining the physical dimensions of these elements.
Once the location of the roadway is selected, the designed considers the design controls and criteria, as presented in Chapter 3, and the related guidelines and standards developed by highway agencies (such as AASHTO), in roadway geometric design.
Objectives:
-
Design the cross section of a roadway, considering the cross sections elements needed, dimensioning them, and selecting the proper types of such elements as applicable.
-
Design the horizontal alignment of a roadway, considering the relevant factors in design, dimensioning the needed horizontal curves, and specifying how to deal with transitioning the cross section across the curves.
-
Design the vertical alignment of a roadway, considering the relevant factors in design, and dimensioning the needed vertical curves, specifying how to deal with different criteria for design of vertical curves.
-
Design the special cases of climbing lanes and the truck escape ramps.
-
Design the various types of parking facilities.
Chapter Subjects:
In this chapter we will cover the following subjects:
-
Design of the cross section
-
Design of the horizontal alignment
-
Design of the vertical alignment
-

Chapter Five:
Soil Engineering for Highway Design
Introduction:
As Highway Engineers are interested in the basic engineering properties of soils, because soils are used extensively in highway construction, the basic soil properties are of significant importance . They are also of importance when high embankments are to be constructed and when the soil is to be strengthened and used as intermediate support for the highway pavement. Several transportation agencies have developed detailed procedures for investigating soil materials used in highway construction.
This chapter presents a summary of current knowledge of the characteristics and engineering properties of soils that are important to highway engineers, including the origin and formation of soils, soil identification, and soil testing methods. In addition two relevant issues related to soil compaction and strength are discussed.
Objectives:
- Identify the relevant characteristics and engineering properties of soils.
- Recognize the methods and practices utilized in Soil investigations.
- Apply and conduct testing related to compaction of soil, as well as of other granular material used in pavement courses.
- Apply and conduct testing related to soil strength relevant to highway construction, as well as strength of other granular material used in pavement courses.
Chapter Subjects:
In this chapter we will cover the following subjects :
- Soil characteristics and classification
- Soil investigations
- Soil compaction
- California Bearing Ratio – CBR

Chapter Six:
Bituminous Materials
Introduction:
Bituminous materials are used widely all over the world in highway construction. These hydrocarbons are found in natural deposits or are obtained as a productof the distillation of crude petroleum. The bituminous materials used in highway construction are either asphalts or tars.
All bituminous materials consist primarily of bitumen and have strong adhesive properties with colors ranging from dark brown to black. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid; thus, they are divided into liquids, semisolids, and solids. The solid form is usually hard and brittle at normal temperatures but will flow when subjected to long, continuous loading. The liquid form is obtained from the semisolid or solid forms by heating, dissolving in solvents, or breaking the material into minute particles and dispersing them in water with an emulsifier to form an asphalt emulsion.
This chapter presents a description of the different types of bituminous materials used in highway construction, the processes by which they are obtained, and the tests required to determine those properties that are pertinent to highway engineering. It also includes a description of methods of mix design to obtain a paving material known as asphalt.
Objectives:
1. Identify the sources of asphalt
2. Recognize the description and uses of bituminous binders
3. Describe the properties and the tests of asphalt materials
4. Identify the types of asphalt mixes and design of hot-mix, hot laid asphalt mixtures
5. Apply the Marshall mix design method
6. Recognize the basics of Superpave System
Chapter Subjects:
In this chapter we will cover the following subjects:
1. Sources of Asphalt
2. Description and Uses of Bituminous Materials
3. Properties of Asphalt Materials
4. Test for Asphalt Materials
5. Asphalt Mixtures
6. Introduction to Super Pave Systems

Chapter Seven:
Pavement Design
Introduction:
Highway pavements are divided into two main categories: rigid and flexible. Flexible pavements usually consist of a bituminous surface underlaid with a layer of granular material and a layer of a suitable mixture of coarse and fine materials. Traffic loads are transferred by the wearing surface to the underlying supporting materials through the interlocking of aggregates, the frictional effect of granular materials, and cohesion of fine materials. The wearing surface of a rigid pavement usually is constructed of Portland cement concrete such that it acts like a beam over any irregularities in the underlying supporting material.
Flexible pavements are further divided into three subgroups: high type, intermediate type, and low type. High-type pavements have wearing surfaces that adequately support the expected traffic load without visible distress due to fatigue and are not susceptible to weather conditions. Intermediate-type pavements have wearing surfaces that range from surface treated to those with qualities just below that of high type pavements. Low-type pavements are used mainly for low-cost roads and have wearing surfaces that range from untreated to loose natural materials to surface treated earth.
This chapter deals with the design of new high-type flexible pavements as well as rigid pavements.
Objectives:
1. Recognize the characteristics of the flexible pavements as well as rigid pavements.
2. Identify the factors that are considered in the design of pavements.
3. Design the flexible pavements.
4. Design the rigid pavements.
Chapter Subjects:
In this chapter we will cover the following subjects:
1. Flexible pavement design
2. Rigid pavement design
