Transportation Engineering Online Lab Manual

Review the Online Lab Manual

The combined research efforts of Region X members, Oregon State University, Portland State University, and University of Idaho, provides an online lab manual for transportation engineering. Transportation engineering, a junior-level course, is offered in most Civil Engineering curricula. The course is the first formal exposure to transportation for most Civil Engineering students.

The online lab manual provides extensive supplemental material for eight topics commonly discussed in the transportation engineering course: Bus Service Planning, Capacity and LOS Analysis, Geometric Design, Parking Lot Design, Roadway Design, Signal Timing Design, Traffic Flow Theory, and Travel Demand Forecasting. The manual is accessible to all transportation educators and students via the Internet, moving toward the “Virtual University” course concept. Students can study this material at their own pace, at any time, at any location where they can connect to the Internet. In addition, for visually impaired students, the material is compatible with most screen readers.

Pavement Interactive

pavementinteractive.org

Pavement Interactive is an Internet-based multimedia document. The primary purpose is to provide a general pavement overview covering all aspects from materials to design to construction to maintenance. Pavement Interactive functions as a "collaborative website" that resides on the Internet and requires only a PC/Mac and minimal freeware to access the information.
