It covers existing pavement improvement process, carriageway widening, and subgrade improvement process. it also covers high friction surface (HFS) treatment process by providing details cold HFS and Hot HFS. Junction Design module covers the design process of the 4-legged junction, 3-legged junction and T-junctions. It covers junction visibility, junction swept path analysis, cycle lane design and provisions for disabled road users. It also covers the basic concept of grade-separated junctions such as half cloverleaf, Dumb-bell Roundabout, 2-bridge Roundabout, etc. Roundabout Design module covers the detailed process of Roundabout Design. It covers the crown line design. entry/ exit design, deflection radius requirements and various value engineering solutions. It also covers various design checks, drainage low point checks and cycle lane design provisions. It also provides key tips to design a safe roundabout. Standard Details Module covers all highway details such as Pavement Details, Kerbing & Edging details, Footpaths details, Bus Stop Details, etc. These standard products are generally procured from suppliers and installed on the site as per the standard details requirements and specifications.

RAM Connection

RAM Connection is a standalone software for steel connection design. RAM Connection is one of the best solutions for structural engineers to review steel connections of single or multiple joints of a steel structure. It permits engineers to customise a significant segment of the steel connection design to meet project needs as required. There is a big database with pre-built connections and it offers designers to select the required connection from the database. The first module covers the Introduction of RAM Connections, their basic settings and different types of pre-built RAM connections available within the database. The second module covers the interface of RAM connections. It talks about various tabs like browser tab, property tab, toolbar tabs, etc. The third module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Column-Flange (BCF). The fourth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Column-Web (BCW). The fifth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Girder (BG). The sixth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam Splice (BS). The seventh module covers the RAM connection design of Column Splice (CS). The eighth module covers the design of Column Beam and Brace (CBB). The ninth module covers the design of VERTICSL V BRACING (VXB) The tenth module covers the design of Chevron Braces (CVR). The eleventh module covers Base Plate Design Connection and Base Plate With Brace design. The twelfth module covers Tapered Column Rafter Knee Connection.

Level 01- Auto CAD Basics

AutoCAD is classified as the utilization of technology to assist in the design, variation, optimization of a drawing layout. In this, we can generate both 2D and 3D drawings used in road and other infrastructure projects. To understand AutoCAD basics, you need to understand what it does: The software allows to make 2D or 3D models of a product (road, building, structures, etc). The Course Module provides step by step process to use Auto CAD from “Getting Started with CAD to various commands of operations to develop drawings and X-refs. First Module “CAD Basic” commences with a desktop icon to getting start window and then explains all the details of Menus, Tabs, Settings of CAD Window. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. The second Module provides details of using the command window and how to operate it. Then basic functions like zoom, pan, etc are detailed out. The third Module starts with drawings commands like “Arc” and “Circle”. It covers all the ways and means to operate these commands. The fourth Module covers the drawing command of “Polygon” and “Rectangle”. It provides all the ways to use these two commands in various situations. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. The fifth Module covers the drawing commands like move, copy and array. It provides a detailed process to use these commands and a combination of copy and array command too. Each module provides key tips to use the command in the most efficient way to save time and effort.

Basics of Bridge Engineering

Bridge Engineering is the key discipline branching out from civil engineering and it involves the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of bridges to ensure safe and effective transportation of vehicles, people and goods. The course modules provide a high-level overview of Bridge engineering and cover details like Element of Bridges, Type of Bridges, Siting of Bridges, Analysis of Bridge Structure, Influence Line Diagram, Design of Deck Slab, Design of T Girder, etc. Module 1: Bridge Engineering and Design The first module starts with Siting Criteria of the bridge of details out various reasons to select a particular location as a preferred site for bridge against many other locations. It shows a flow chart to filter out the less feasible locations and drill down to the preferred site location. The module also covers details of various types of bridges and key reasons to select one type of bridge over the others. Module 2: Bridge Elements The second module details the elements of the Bridges. The Element of Bridges is an exhaustive list, so Superstructure, Expansion Joints, Bearings are covered in the second module and the remaining elements are covered next module. Module 3: Bridge Elements The third module covers the remaining elements of the Bridges. Sub-structure, Foundation and secondary elements are covered in this module. Module 4: Steps of Bridge Design The fourth module covers Hydraulics analysis of river flow is discussed to calculate the maximum discharge of river flow. Thereafter, the loading of parameters of the bridge deck and girders are discussed. The module also covers the Finite Element Analysis. The objective of Finite Element Analysis is to find a localized failure, in the bridge due to a vehicular impact and how detailed modelling can help to determine all possible failures.

Signal Design

Traffic Signals are the control system to improve intersection operations, capacity, and junction safety. The course module provides a detailed process of Traffic Signal Design. It also covers the key aspects of signal phasing, signal timing, etc. The course will open a new window for students to consider Traffic Signal Designer role as a career opportunity. The first module explained the reason for providing traffic signals at junction. then it covers traffic signal terminologies such as storage lane, acceleration lane, splitter islands, pedestrian refuge area, signal heads and their types, signal hoods, signal poles and their types. The second module provided details of Traffic Signal Phasing, Signal Cycle Time and Right Turn Phasing. It also covers pedestrian phasing details and how to prepare and read traffic signal drawings. The third module covers the concept of signal timing with respect to Pre-determined Fix Signal Timing and Actuated Signal Timing. It also covers the relationship of Cycle Length with Queuing and provides detail process of cycle Length Calculation. It covers the detail process of amber time calculation and provides Thumb rule recommendation for cycle length. Lastly, it covers key features to improve pedestrian crossing facilities by using latest technologies.
