| THIS COURSE PROVIDES A GREATER IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A ROAD. ROAD INTERSECTIONS ARE ALSO STUDIED AND DESIGNED. IN ADDITION THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES FOR CORRECTLY DESIGNING RAILWAYS, AS WELL AS APRONS AND AIRPORT RUNWAYS ARE ALSO TAUGHT. FOR THIS AIM, THE COURSE PROVIDES THE TOOLS IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND IN DETAIL THE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ROAD DESIGN STRATEGY AND INTERSECTIONS, AS WELL AS OF RAILWAYS AND AIRPORT RUNWAYS. THIS KNOWLEDGE IS THEN APPLIED BOTH TO A ROAD AND INTERSECTIONS INVOLVING THE COMPLETE PROCESS OF DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION. THE ABILITY TO MAKE DECISIONS IS BASED ON THE CHOICE CRITERIA THAT APPEAR TO BE MORE APPROPRIATE FOR AN ACCURATE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF: ROADS, ROAD INTERSECTIONS, RAILWAYS, AND AIRPORT RUNWAYS. THE COMMUNICATION SKILL IS STRENGTHENED BY THE ALLOWING STUDENTS TO WORK IN GROUPS AND DISCUSSING BOTH AMONG THEM AND WITH THE PROFESSOR ABOUT THE CHOICES OF DESIGNING AND CONSTRUCTING. A SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE OF OTHER ENGINEERING COURSES BASED ON THE DESIGN OF AN INFRASTRUCTURE AND/OR OF A BUILDING IS REQUIRED. |
| Prerequisites | |

| THE EXAM IN “ROADS, RAILWAYS AND AIRPORTS I” HAS TO HAVE BEEN PASSED. |
| Contents | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSE PROVIDES CRITERIA AND METHODS FOR THE DESIGN OF A ROAD ACCORDING TO THE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DESIGN STRATEGY, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ALSO ROAD SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT. ROAD INTERSECTIONS (SIGNALIZED AND UN-SIGNALIZED INTERSECTIONS, ROUNDABOUTS, WEAVING AREA, AND TERMINAL RAMPS) ARE ALSO TAUGHT AND DESIGNED. CRITERIA FOR DESIGNING RAILWAYS, APRONS AND AIRPORTS RUNWAYS ARE ALSO EXPLAINED. |
| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSES IS BASED ON THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL LESSONS, AS WELL AS ON THE CORRECTION OF THE DESIGN BOTH OF ROAD AND INTERSECTION. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| THE FINAL EXAM IS BASED ON A DISCUSSION CONCERNING BOTH THEORETICAL SUBJECTS AND THE DESIGN BOTH OF THE ROAD AND INTERSECTION. |
