This online engineering PDH course refers to military design requirements and objectives and provides guidance on the general provisions and geometric design criteria for the design of roads, streets, bridges, walks, parking, residence drives and storage areas. It discusses how geometric design deals with the dimensions of the visible features of a facility such as alignment, sight distances, widths, slopes, and grades.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to civil and traffic engineers, technical professionals and construction personnel who are interested in gaining a better understanding of geometric design for roadways, walkways and open storage areas.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the purpose, scope and definitions of geometric design
- Understanding the general provisions for access highway and installation highway design
- Understanding the design basis for roads, streets and storage areas
- Understanding the principles of geometric design for underpass roadways, bridges, walks, parking and residence drives
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the course document titled "General Provisions and Geometric Design for Roads, Streets, Walks and Open Storage Areas" prepared by the Department of Defense, Unified Facilities Criteria Publication "UFC 3-250-18FA", January 2006.

This online engineering PDH course discusses the basic principles of transportation planning. It will provide the definition and objectives of project design and corridor traffic forecasting. It will also examine how equivalent single axle loading (ESAL) forecasting plays into the planning process.
Corridor traffic forecasting and project design traffic forecasting projects require forecasts of Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) and Design Hourly Volume (DHV). The Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) suggests and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requires that K30 be used for all design hour traffic projections.
Traffic data sources will be discussed such as permanent continuous counts, permanent continuous classification counts and portable seasonal classification counts. Definitions will be provided for traffic factors including seasonal factor (SF), axle correction factor, annual average daily traffic (AADT), K, directional distribution (D) and percent trucks (T). Equations will be provided to show how each of these factors relate to traffic forecasting.
This 1 PDH online course is applicable to transportation engineers and roadway planners who are interested in gaining basic introductory knowledge in transportation planning.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with project design and corridor traffic forecasting
- Learning definitions of traffic data sources
- Understanding the basics of traffic factors such as seasonal factor (SF), directional distribution (D) and percent trucks (T)
- Understanding the basis of level of service (LOS)
- Familiarizing with the equations for calculating the number of lanes

This online engineering PDH course presents guidelines on the design of traffic elements, illumination, and landscaping associated with roundabouts.
The design of these elements is critical in achieving the desired operational and safety features of a roundabout, as well as the desired visibility and aesthetics.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to traffic engineers, transportation planners, conceptual and detailed designers, and other technical professionals who are involved in the traffic design and landscaping of roundabouts.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Designing the traffic elements including signing, pavement markings and work zone traffic control
- Designing the required illumination
- Landscaping the central island, splitter island and approach
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 7, "Traffic Design and Landscaping", of the Federal Highway Administration Publication FHWA-RD-00-067, "Understanding Roundabouts".

This online engineering PDH course discusses traffic control concepts for urban and suburban streets. In planning and designing a traffic signal control system, one must first understand the applicable operational concepts related to signalized intersection control and signal-related special control. A number of commonly used proprietary traffic systems and simulations are discussed in this chapter. These discussions provide illustrations of the technology.
This 7 PDH online course is applicable to transportation planners, traffic engineers, agency personnel as well as design and construction personnel involved with the development, review, approval, implementation, and assessment of traffic control planning, designs and implementation.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the various control variables
- Learning the sampling, filtering and smoothing techniques
- Knowledge of traffic signal timing parameters and signal phasing
- Dealing with isolated intersections
- Understanding arterial and network control and other special controls
- Understanding the benefits and measures of effectiveness
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 3, "Traffic Control Concepts - Urban and Suburban Streets" of the Federal Highway Administration Publication, FHWA-HOP-06-006, "Traffic Control Systems Handbook".

This online engineering PDH course will establish the relationship between the actions of a licensing board for professional engineers and the Constitutional right of free speech.
This course discusses the background and findings of a legal case that arose when a state licensing board for professional engineers attempted to restrict the right of an engineer from speaking about a public safety issue. Actual legal documents and associated correspondence are discussed, and their implications analyzed.
The 1 PDH online course is intended for all registered professional engineers wanting to know about the relation between constitutionally protected free speech and the powers of a licensing board for professional engineers.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the value of free speech in discovering the best solution to technical problems
- Realizing the difference between protected and unprotected speech
- Knowing an example in which the actions of a PE licensing board was limited by the Constitutional right of free speech
- Familiarizing with the meaning of a board letter that announces the opening of an investigation
- Understanding the meaning and use of a Notice to Impose a Civil Penalty
- Understanding the significance of working outside the context of an employment or contractual relationship
