CET 225 - Route Layout & Design

4 Credit Hours


In this course the student will study the factors affecting the layout and location of road and utility alignments. Students will study and compute simple horizontal, reverse, compound and transition spiral curves along with computing parabolic vertical curves, end areas and volumes. Students will also study the process of slope stakes and traditionally field slope stake a simple road, then by GPS/data controller (project 1). Plans, profiles, cross-sections and corridors will be produced (Civil 3D) for staking projects of two short road design projects with curbs and sanitary. The students will use digital levels, robotic total stations, GPS and data collectors to stake these projects in the spring of the year using alignments (project 2) and the complete corridor with “strings and stations” (project 3).

Prerequisites: CET 215 , CET 226
