Land Development Projects: Design of Infrastructure

SKU: RV-10962
Duration: 1.00 Hr

Land Development projects shape our communities and in many occasions create them. The primary goal of this interactive, online course is to assist planners, architects, engineers and contractors in developing a framework for optimizing infrastructure design that supports land development projects using guidelines from AASHTO, Urban Land Institute, Ten State Standards and other public and private organizations. The diversity of land development projects mirror our needs as a society. Even though they can be classified as commercial, residential, industrial, professional, institutional or governmental in nature they still need to be sustained by the same type of civil infrastructure. As our cities expand and population densities increase our infrastructure network has had to increase and adapt to serve our growing needs. This increase in capacity requirements has made ever more important the need to have efficient infrastructure designs.
