| | Courses‟ Description The main and basic element of
urban planning are defined in the conceptual,
hierarchical and contextual levels. Also, the nature of
planning as a process of interrelated stages should be
emphasized and other elements including land use,
population, socio-economic and environmental issues
are introduced in this basic elementary course | Msc | | | Air transportation: Airport planning, aircraft characteristics, airport configuration, landing area, airport capacity, and terminal area planning. Rail transportation: Cross sections, horizontal and vertical alignments superelevation, trains speed, rail sections, joints and crossings. Water transportation: Harbor types, harbor components, and harbor site selection. Urban transportation planning: Demand forecast, evaluation techniques, transportation system management, and mass transit. | Fifth Year | | | Pavement types, structural design: stress analysis, vehicle and traffic consideration, structural design of flexible and rigid pavements, pavement materials: bituminous materials and their uses, asphalt concrete mix design, pavement distress and maintenance, preparation and construction of pavements. Planning of maintenance works. | Fourth Year | | | Highway systems, highway evaluation, driver, pedestrian and vehicle characteristics, traffic characteristics, geometric alignment, roadside design, intersections and interchanges design, drainage and drainage structures, contracts and supervision, traffic accidents and safety, parking, pedestrian, speed, travel time and traffic volume studies, traffic signals and control devices. | Fourth Year | | | Major elements of feasibility studies. Principles of engineering Economy. Equivalence and compound interest formula. Single payment model. Uniform payment model. Gradient payment model. Exponential payment model. Decision criteria for single and multiple alternatives: present worth, annual worth, future worth, internal rate of return, benefit cost ratio and payback methods. Income-tax effect on decision making Management concepts, management cycle. Theories of management. Project scheduling techniques using Gantt and Precedence methods.
| Fourth Year | | | Force systems (2D and 3D), equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies (2D and 3D), structures (trusses, frames and machines), distributed forces (centroids and centers of mass), beams (shearing force and bending moment diagrams), friction, moments of inertia and virtual work. | Second Year | | | Introduction to mechanics of deformable bodies; concepts of stress and strain, classification of materials behavior, stress-strain relations and generalized Hook's law. Applications to engineering problems involving members under axial loads, torsion of circular rods and tubes, bending and shear stresses in beams, combined stresses in beams, transformations of stresses, and buckling. | Undergraduate Requirement |
