The traverse slope provided by raising outer edge of the road to counteract the centrifugal force created, and for the safe movement of the vehicles.
Kenya has a super highway... Its called thika super highway
Sea View Highway has an average elevation of around 50 feet above sea level.
there is a difference
highway engineering is the backbone of civil engineering.it helps you in understanding road phenomena's like shoulder,carriageway,road designs,different road failures etc.simply you can learn much more thing regarding road from highway engineering
the question is not correct written but all in all highway engineering is a one among the branch of civil engineering
An elevation map shows the height of land above sea level.
Yes.
Heating & Ventilation Engineer and Hydraulics Engineer are engineering careers. They begin with the letter H.

To create a super-elevation in road design, follow these steps: first, determine the appropriate degree of super-elevation based on the road's design speed and curve radius. Next, calculate the required cross-slope by using the formula that considers speed, radius, and gravitational forces. Then, design the road cross-section to incorporate the super-elevation, ensuring proper drainage. Finally, implement the construction, ensuring that the transition into the super-elevated section is smooth for vehicles.
