Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic Operations at Intersections: Learning and Applying the Models and Methods of the Highway Capacity Manual Chapters on all-way stop-controlled intersections, two-way stop-controlled intersections, and signalized intersections Designed for practicing transportation engineers and university seniors and graduate students 11 simplified scenarios to open-up your understanding of the HCM 43 example calculations that are fully worked out and explained in detail 7 computational engines that allow you to see inside and then apply the models 138 figures to clearly illustrate concepts Additional problems online The models of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) are often the engineer's choice to analyze intersection performance. These models are complex, and nearly all transportation engineers use software implementations of these models to conduct their analyses. Software applications are powerful tools that help engineers solve problems. But these applications also serve as barriers to the understanding of the complex models embedded in the software. Our major objective in writing this book is to transform the "black box" of the HCM intersection models, and their software implementations, into a "clear box" that allows the engineer to better understand how these models work. We do this through the idea of the "simplified scenario." The eleven scenarios that we present are based on conditions greatly simplified from what you would normally see in the field. By focusing on one concept at a time, in the context of these simplified conditions, you will better understand the fundamentals of the HCM intersection models. You will then be able to apply these models to more complex intersections with skill, confidence, and insight.

This book was released on 2020-01-08 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1950, the Highway Capacity Manual has been a standard used in the planning, design, analysis, and operation of virtually any highway traffic facility in the United States. It has also been widely used around the globe and has inspired the development of similar manuals in other countries. This book is Volume II of a series on the conceptual and research origins of the methodologies found in the Highway Capacity Manual. It focuses on the most complex points in a traffic system: signalized and unsignalized intersections, and the concepts and methodologies developed over the years to model their operations. It also includes an overview of the fundamental concepts of capacity and level of service, particularly as applied to intersections. The historical roots of the manual and its contents are important to understanding current methodologies, and improving them in the future. As such, this book is a valuable resource for current and future users of the Highway Capacity Manual, as well as researchers and developers involved in advancing the state-of-the-art in the field.

Book excerpt: This is a summary of the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), and has been prepared for personnel of the Federal Highway Administration to assist in the transition from the 1965 HCM to the 1985 HCM. This summary highlights the major differences between the 1965 HCM and the 1985 HCM. The key features and the principal contents of the 1985 HCM are also highlighted. The 1985 HCM is a major evolutionary step forward in the state-of-the-art of highway and traffic operational and design analysis. It provides a means of evaluating alternative solutions to traffic problems, solutions which still require the expertise and creativity of the professional engineer.
