Question

Briefly explain the objectives of carrying out geometric design.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The basic objectives in geometric design are to optimize efficiency and safety while minimizing cost and environmental damage. ... Geometric roadway design can be broken into three main parts: alignment, profile, and cross-section. Combined, they provide a three-dimensional layout for a roadway

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. The basic objectives in Geometric design are to optimise efficiency and safety while minimising cost and environmental damage geometric roadway and design can be broken into three main parts alignment, profile and cross section combined they provide to three-dimensional layout for a roadway.
2. Improving integers is very difficult and more expensive.

• Design geometric features at the initial stages itself considering future traffic scan aireo.
• for example in 2015 the road may be designed for 80 kmph but the designer has to considered for 120 kmph s the road may be upgraded in future accordingly sight distance superelevation acceptor are to be design.
