In this article, John Carlton, PE, discusses the importance of a properly designed roadway which adheres to the “Clear Zone” concept in helping to eliminate roadway hazards and mitigate the most severe outcome related to accidents. Topics covered include: • The purpose and function of a typical clear zone • Clear zones as defined by the AASHTO Roadside Design Guide • Common roadside violations to the clear zone • Risks presented by above ground hazards and drop-offs • Proper application of the clear zone concept To learn more, visit: https://lnkd.in/e-Gga9tU #50andForward #50YearsOfInsights #RoadwaySafety

Often times, change can be: 🤐 Nerve-racking 🤔 Challenging 😱 Scary But... The opportunity that comes on the other side of change, can be invaluable, and we've seen it first hand in the Pavement Industry! → Small changes every year can change the trajectory of a historically failing roadway network Trust in the change. #PavementManagement #PavementPreservation #Change #CivilEngineer

LSM BridgeSense® (int.pat.pend) technology is a solution. Vehicle Over - Height / Bridge impacts occur in Australia / Worldwide daily and costs $100's millions / annum in repairs, traffic delays / congestion, emergency response, etc and in some cases, fatalities. BridgeSense® is a CAS (Collision Awareness / Avoidance Systems) technology that will avoid / eliminate impact on approaching Over / Under Bridges, Tunnels, etc. #lsmbridgesense, #trainsense #bridgeengineering #bridgesense #bridgeimpact #bridgedesign #bridges #bridgecollision #teamlsm #railwaysafety #technology #innovation #creativity
Reconstruction of bridge ‘critically’ damaged by overloaded truck shows ‘progress,’ GDOT says

Principal of Jon Carr Structural Design, and a Senior University Teacher at the University of Sheffield.
Finally got up close and personal to what is probably my all time favourite bridge, the Forth Rail Bridge. That said, the new Forth Road Bridge is also a pretty impressive feat of Engineering. #bridges #Engineering #StructuralEngineering #FirthofForth #Scotland

The amazing infrastructure of a suspension railway (upside-down railway) Suspension railways, also known as monorails, have several advantages, including: ·Tighter curves: Suspended railways can make tighter turns than conventional railroads and straddle monorails. More comfortable ride: When turning, passengers lean into the corner instead of away from it, making for a more comfortable ride. Better adaptation to terrain: Suspended railways can adapt to their surroundings, which can reduce the amount of engineering and demolition needed. ·AIl-weather operation: The running surface is not open-air, so it's not affected by severe weather like freezing rain and snow. ·Less noise: The running noise is less than steel wheel and rail systems. ·Less ground occupation: The structure is slender and occupies less ground resources. Better field of vision: Passengers stand high, so their field of vision is transparent and unobstructed. Better construction time: Construction can be faster and cheaper than elsewhere. Better safety record: Suspended railways are a very safe form of transport. #suspensionrailway #monorails #infrastructures #civilengineering #technology #structuralengineering #transportationengineering #architecture #engineering #concrete
