Highways & Transportation I (ECIV 4333) Course Outline 1 The Islamic University of Gaza Faculty of Engineering Highways & Transportation I (ECIV 4333) Instructors: Dr. Y. R. Sarraj Dr. Essam Almasri Semester: Fall 2009 Introduction; Highways & Transportation Engineering I provides an introduction to: systems approach to planning and design of highway, railroad, air, ocean and urban transportation systems. Its basic purpose is to introduce the basic operational characteristics and requirements of transportation elements. Transportation engineering is necessary for nearly all aspects of infrastructure building projects.

Highways & Transportation I (ECIV 4333) Course Objectives This course introduces the student to the basic design concepts of traffic engineering. The student will be able to identify the existing traffic conditions by: conducting different surveys, based on travel time, delays, speed, volume and capacity. Moreover, s/he will be able to build the basic relationship between the speed, the flow and the capacity of the roadway. The course will also introduce the student to: junction design and safety on roads Course Outline 2

Highways & Transportation I (ECIV 4333) The Transport Task Everybody travels whether it be to work, play, shop or do business. All raw materials must be conveyed from the land to a place of manufacture or usage, and all goods must be moved from the factory to the market place and from the staff to the consumer. Transport is the means by which these activities occur; it is the cement that binds together communities and their activities. Meeting these needs has been, and continues to be, the transport task.
