FAQ for Hiring Highway Engineering Designers

Highway engineering is a part of transportation engineering, which is the application of scientific principles and tech to design, plan, manufacture, manage, and operate different modes of transportation. Highway engineering is a discipline of this and of civil engineering. It involves designing, constructing, planning, and operation of bridges, roads, tunnels, and more that make it easy to transport both goods and people from one point to another. Highway engineering got its start around the last half of World War II and has continued to evolve to this day. If you need to get some highway engineering work done, Cad Crowd can help. We have a variety of highway engineering freelancers ready to take on your unique project.

Highway engineering features a long design process that involves having to determine the best alignment, location, and the shape of the highway in order to continue. You have to consider three major factors when designing the highway, and that is the roadway, the vehicular and the human factor, as well as how they play a part toward building a safe highway. Human factors encompass things such as steering and braking, car following behavior, acuity for traffic signals and signs, as well as others. When one is considering the vehicular factor, this means taking into account things such as vehicle dynamics and size that determine the width of the lanes and how much a road can slope.

Geometric design helps engineers follow guidelines to keep the service, safety, and performance standards up to date when designing a highway for certain kinds of topography. This geometric design refers mostly to the visible parts of the highway. This includes things like number of lanes, design speed, level of service, design traffic volume, sight distance, cross sectioning, lane width, vertical and horizontal clearing, and alignment and grades.

The freelance highway engineering designers taking on your project must also think about things such as the materials that are going to be used, namely between the two major types of pavements: hot mix asphalt and Portland cement concrete. When the type of material has been determined, then one must determine the design of the pavement itself and how it will play into the road. One can use flexible or rigid pavement design when considering these things. Other elements include flexible pavement overlay design, drainage system design, and more.
