This online engineering PDH course focuses on the geometric design of cross-sections for modern roads and highways.
The AASHTO "Green Book" defines a roadway cross-section as "a vertical section of the ground and roadway at right angles to the centerline of the roadway, including all elements of a highway or street from right-of-way line". Along with the vertical alignment (grades and vertical curves) and horizontal alignment (tangents and curves), the roadway cross-section (lanes and shoulders, curbs, medians, roadside slopes and ditches, as well as sidewalks) helps to present a three-dimensional roadway model. Its ultimate goal is to provide a safe, smooth-flowing facility that is crash-free.
The 5 PDH online course is applicable to traffic or transportation engineers and designers interested in learning about the principles to be considered when selecting and designing roadway cross-sections.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
-

This online engineering PDH course focuses on the geometric design of horizontal alignments for modern roads and highways. In today's environment, designers must do more than apply design standards and criteria to "solve" a problem. They must understand how various roadway elements contribute to safety and facility operation, including the horizontal alignment.
The roadway horizontal alignment is a series of horizontal tangents (straight roadway sections), circular curves, and spiral transitions. It shows the proposed roadway location in relation to the existing terrain and adjacent land conditions. Together with the vertical alignment (grades and vertical curves) and roadway cross-sections (lanes, shoulders, curbs, medians, roadside slopes, ditches and sidewalks), the horizontal alignment (tangents and curves) helps to provide a three-dimensional roadway layout.
This 4 PDH online course is applicable to traffic or transportation engineers interested in learning about the principles to be considered when selecting and designing roadway horizontal alignments. The contents of this document are intended to serve as guidance and not as an absolute standard or rule.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learning about sight distance
- Stopping
- Decision
- Passing
- Intersection
- Understanding design considerations
- Cross slopes
- Radii
- Grades
- Learning about horizontal curves
- Compound
- Spiral
- Coordinating Horizontal & Vertical Curves
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the course document titled "Roadway Horizontal Alignments". This course document is based exclusively on Chapter 3 (Section 3.3 Horizontal Alignment) of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) publication, "A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets" (also known as the "Green Book").
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty five (25) questions to earn 4 PDH credits. The quiz will be based on Chapter 3 of this AASHTO publication.
Upon successful completion of the quiz, print your Certificate of Completion instantly. (Note: if you are paying by check or money order, you will be able to print it after we receive your payment.)

This online engineering PDH course focuses on the geometric design of vertical alignments for modern roads and highways.
Roadway vertical alignments are a combination of various parabolic curves and connecting tangent grades. Along with the roadway cross section (lanes, shoulders, curbs, medians, roadside slopes, ditches and sidewalks) and horizontal alignment (tangents and curves), the vertical alignment (grades and vertical curves) helps provide a three-dimensional roadway model. Its ultimate goal is to provide a safe, smooth-flowing facility that is crash-free.
In today's environment, designers must do more than apply design standards and criteria to 'solve' a problem. They must understand how various roadway elements contribute to safety and facility operation, including the vertical profile.
This 4 PDH online course is applicable to traffic or transportation engineers interested in learning about the principles to be considered when designing roadway vertical alignments.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
