Grading and Drainage Design of Modern Roundabouts

Grading and Drainage Design of Modern Roundabouts

1 hr. Online Course

Level: Advanced

Item#: RV-11191AW

SME: Alfredo Cely, P.E., MSEM

Modern roundabouts are a proven and effective safety improvement for roadway intersections. The main focus of roundabout design documentation has been in its traffic capacity and geometry. Once these features are set, the vertical design (grading and drainage) becomes the most critical portion of the design execution and the main component in determining the construction cost of roundabouts. In this interactive online course, engineers, architects, planners and contractors will learn design techniques and best practices to develop efficient roundabout grading and drainage designs.
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
  • List the three key concepts for the vertical design of modern roundabouts
  • Develop a typical section of the circulatory roadway
  • Identify the key critical design points for both roundabouts’ approach and departure roadways
  • Develop profiles for the intersection returns, approach, departure and circulatory roadways
