MaterialsA Guide for AchievingFlexibility in Highway Design

Context-sensitive solutions (CSS) reflect the need toconsider highway projects as more than just trans-portation facilities. Depending on how highway proj-ects are integrated into the community, they can havefar-reaching impacts beyond their traffic or trans-portation function. CSS is a comprehensive processthat brings stakeholders together in a positive, proac-tive environment to develop projects that not onlymeet transportation needs, but also improve orenhance the community. Achieving a flexible, con-text-sensitive design solution requires designers tofully understand the reasons behind the processes,design values, and design procedures that are used.This new AASHTO Guide shows highway designershow to think flexibly, how to recognize the manychoices and options they have, and how to arrive atthe best solution for the particular situation or con-text. It also strives to emphasize that flexible designdoes not necessarily entail a fundamentally newdesign process, but that it can be integrated into theexisting transportation culture.This publication repre-sents a major step toward institutionalizing CSS intoState transportation departments and other agenciescharged with transportation project development.2004.

Guidelines for GeometricDesign of Very Low-VolumeLocal Roads (ADT<400)addresses the uniquedesign issues highwaydesigners and engineersface when determiningappropriate cost-effectivegeometric design policiesfor very low-volume local

roads.This approach covers both new and existingconstruction projects. Because geometric designguidance for very low-volume local roads differsfrom the policies applied to high-volume roads,these guidelines may be used in lieu of A Policy onGeometric Design of Highways and Streets, also knownas “The Green Book.” Design values are presentedin both metric and U.S. customary units.2001.

AASHTO Load & Resistance Factor Design(LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications, 3rd Edition

This major step in the improved bridge design and more accurate analysis is expectedto lead to bridges exhibiting superior serviceability, enhanced long-term maintainabili-

ty, and more uniform levels of safety. Based on the load-and-resistance factor design philosophy (LRFD), this bookis the result of a five-year research effort under AASHTO’sNational Cooperative Highway Research Program(NCHRP) Project 12-33. Since the 1st Edition was pub-lished in 1994, the provisions have continued to be updatedand improved based on continuing research and the experi-ence of the user community.The new specifications havebeen systematically tested in trial designs in bridge designdivisions of 14 AASHTO Member Departments.Supersedes the 2nd Edition and its 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002,and 2003 Interims.Available in either U.S. (standard) or SI

(metric) versions, or may also be purchased as a standard/metric set.2004. Looseleaf with binder. Approx 1,450 pp.

Technical Data Guide 2000. SDMS consists oftwo modules: SDMS Collector and SDMSProcessor.

SDMS Collector • A survey data collectionsoftware system that can be used for commonsurveying tasks and complies with theAASHTO SDMS™ standard data structure. Itcurrently runs on DOS-based computers,laptops, and hand-held PCs, andcommunicates with most commercially avail-able total station instruments.

SDMS Windows CE® Collector• The2004 release of the SDMSCE Collector is designed toprovide survey data collection

in the Windows CE environment.The SDMSCE Collector maintains the functionality ofthe SDMS DOS Collector, introduces com-munication with electronic levels, and providesbasic coordinate geometry routines. However,the SDMS CE Collector will initially only beavailable to project participants. SDMS CECollector will be initially available only toproject participants.

SDMS Processor is a Microsoft Windows™-based system for import and management ofSDMS Collector data files. SDMS Processorwill import and process routines from allSDMS Collector tasks, activities, and tags; andoutput an SDMS points, attributes and chains(PAC) file that contains least squares computedand adjusted values as well as analyzed andassembled line connectivity information.

National Transportation Communications for ITS Protocol (NTCIP)

AASHTO, in partnership with the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) and theNational Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), with financial support from theFederal Highway Administration (FHWA), is leading a national effort to develop and adoptthe National Transportation Communications for Intelligent Transportation Systems Protocol(NTCIP). NTCIP is a family of standards that provides rules for communicating (protocols)and vocabulary (objects) necessary for electronic traffic control equipment from differentmanufacturers to operate within a system.The NTCIP is the first set of standards for thetransportation industry that allows traffic control systems using mix-and-match equipment,reducing reliance on specific vendors and customized software.Traffic control equipmentincludes signal controls at intersections, variable message freeway signs, environmental monitoring stations near bridges, cameras along streets and freeways, and other types ofdevices. For a description of each standard, regular availability updates, and a link towww.global.ihs.com for purchasing, go to www.transportation.org. Detailed information and status of standards under development can be found at the NTCIP web sitewww.NTCIP.org/library/documents.

In addition to standards,AASHTO and its partners have also developed a guide onhow to apply NTCIP standards and have conducted a number of case studies on theapplication of the standards.The case studies include the application of dynamic messages signs in the states of Virginia and Washington; traffic signal systems in Phoenix,Ariz., Mesa,Ariz., and Lakewood, Colo.; and two environmental sensor systems (roadweather information systems) in Minnesota and Washington.The guide and case studiesmay be downloaded free at www.ntcip.org/library/documents. In addition, the latestissue of the NTCIPnews newsletter is available at www.ntcip.org/library/documents.

AASHTO members, associates, and affiliates can purchase NTCIP standards for electric down-

loading at http://global.ihs.com/ntcip.cfm for one-half of the retail cost. Use the password

“NTCIPmember.” Coming in 2004, the NTCIP Standards will be available at no cost to download from

the NTCIP Web site. Look for the announcement.

National Transportation Product Evaluation Program (NTPEP)NTPEP is an AASHTO technical service program which coordinates large-scaledemonstration projects on proprietary engineered products. NTPEP conducts field performance evaluation and laboratory testing on a wide array of highway safety products and maintenance/construction materials.All testing is performed by AASHTOmember departments or private testing labs under contract to NTPEP. Manufacturersvoluntarily submit products for NTPEP-coordinated evaluation.Test results are widelyused by state DOTs for purposes of product prequalification (QPL). Founded in 1994,NTPEP typically produces 15 evaluation reports per year on hundreds of productbrands. In mid-2003, NTPEP launched its NTPEP DataMine, offering online access to certain reports with analytical capability and graphical presentation of results.

Based on the load-and-resistance factor designphilosophy (LRFD), this book is the result of afive-year research effort under AASHTO’sNational Cooperative Highway ResearchProgram (NCHRP) Project 12-33. Since 1stEdition was published in 1994, the provisionshave continued to be updated and improvedbased on continuing research and the experi-ence of the user community.The new specifica-tions have been systematically tested in trialdesigns in bridge design divisions of 14 AASHTO MemberDepartments.

A Guide for Achieving Flexibility in HighwayDesign

This new AASHTO Guide shows highway designers how to thinkflexibly, how to recognize the many choices and options they have, andhow to arrive at the best solution for the particular situation or con-text. It also strives to emphasize that flexible design does not neces-sarily entail a fundamentally new design process, but that it can beintegrated into the existing transportation culture. This publicationrepresents a major step toward institutionalizing CSS into State trans-portation departments and other agencies charged with transportationproject development. See page 4 for details.
