Transportation Engineering
ž Transportation engineering is the aplication of technologi and
scientific principles to the planning functional design operation and
management of facilities for any mode of transportation in order to provide for
the safe efficiend, rapid, comfortable, convenient, economical and
environmentally compatible movement of people and goods(transport).
ž civil engineering and of industrial
engineering
Transportation engineering is a major component and
mechanical engineering disciplines, according to specialisation of academic
courses and main competences of the infolved territory the importance of
transportation engineering within the civil and industrial engineering
profession ca be judged by the number of divisions in ASCE (American Society of
Civil Engineers) That are directly related to transportation.
There are six such divisions (Aerospace ; Air
transportation ; Highway ; pipeline ; Waterway ; Port ; coastal and ocean , and Urban
transportation )representing one – third of the total 18 technical divisions
within the ASCE 1987.
