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.

Book excerpt: Trees by their very nature are landmarks and memorials. They are therefore identified with human happenings. Trees also have more than the allotted life span of man and carry their association through generations of men and women. Thus they often figure not only in biography but also in history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iowa Highway Research Board has identified the development of a simplified handbook of transportation studies as a high priority for the state of Iowa. The Center for Transportation Research and Education (CTRE) at Iowa State University was chosen to develop such a handbook. A well-executed, well-documented study is critical in the decision-making process for many transportation-related projects and in reporting to elected officials and members of the community. As more research is conducted in the area of transportation, study procedures in many cases have become more complex. It is often difficult for local jurisdictions with limited staff, training, experience, and time availability to perform these studies. The most commonly used publication for traffic studies is geared toward transportation professionals and professional engineers. That defining document, Manual of Transportation Studies (Institute of Transportation Engineers, 2000), is over 500 pages and includes several dozen types of transportation studies. Many of the transportation studies described in the manual are rarely (if ever) used by local jurisdictions. Further, those studies that are frequently used are at times very complex and possibly very costly to perform exactly as described. Local jurisdictions without the staff expertise to understand and apply the manual's various studies have a need for a simplified handbook of procedures to perform common traffic studies themselves or properly define a scope of work to hire a consultant to perform the studies. This handbook describes simplified procedures that are easy to apply and are written for all potential users (civil engineers and traffic engineers, public works mangers, city managers and attorneys, and the general public).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most people in the United States, going almost anywhere begins with reaching for the car keys. This is true, Christopher Wells argues, because the United States is Car Country—a nation dominated by landscapes that are difficult, inconvenient, and often unsafe to navigate by those who are not sitting behind the wheel of a car. The prevalence of car-dependent landscapes seems perfectly natural to us today, but it is, in fact, a relatively new historical development. In Car Country, Wells rejects the idea that the nation's automotive status quo can be explained as a simple byproduct of an ardent love affair with the automobile. Instead, he takes readers on a tour of the evolving American landscape, charting the ways that transportation policies and land-use practices have combined to reshape nearly every element of the built environment around the easy movement of automobiles. Wells untangles the complicated relationships between automobiles and the environment, allowing readers to see the everyday world in a completely new way. The result is a history that is essential for understanding American transportation and land-use issues today. Watch the book trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48LTKOxxrXQ
