Synopsis

The planning, construction and operation of civil engineering works is
critical to the well being of societies within the modern world. It is
important,  therefore, that the graduate civil engineer have  a  broad
understanding  the  role  and planning of transport  systems.  As  the
majority  of  civil  engineers working in  the  transport  sector  are
concerned  with road transport, a greater emphasis will be  placed  on
this  mode of transport. Students of this unit will be assumed to have
a  basic  understanding  of  statistical techniques,  soil  mechanics,
engineering materials and technical drafting skills (including CAD).
