Highway Planning, Pavement Design and Construction
About this Specialization
The Highway Planning, Pavement Design, and Construction specialization by L&T EduTech provides a comprehensive learning experience in highway engineering, aligned with Indian standards. It covers all aspects of highway planning, design, and construction, including cross-sections, drainage design, traffic flow optimization, accident studies, and road capacity planning. Learners will explore traffic control devices, pavement materials, and virtual testing for CBR and bituminous properties while gaining expertise in designing flexible pavements using IITPAVE software and rigid pavements through regression equations. The program delves into construction practices, including asphalt mix and concrete batching plants, excavation, compaction, and paving equipment, ensuring quality enhancement, project planning, and monitoring. Covering pavement layers like embankments, subgrades, granular sub-base, wet mix macadam, and bituminous and concrete pavements, the specialization prepares civil engineering students and professionals to effectively plan, design, and execute highway projects while adhering to IRC and MoRTH standards. The curriculum also emphasizes sustainable construction practices and durability in pavement design, ensuring learners develop solutions for long-lasting and cost-effective highway infrastructure. With industry-aligned insights and hands-on experience, graduates will be equipped to contribute effectively to modern road development projects.Created by: L&T EduTech
