This training manual is written for civil engineers and designers who will use OpenRoads Designer for design and evaluation of highways or other corridors. Included are step-by-step instructions to complete an example road design project illustrating both workflow and concepts of the software.

Inside the book are instructions on how to download a real-world dataset that is used to:

Work with Terrain Models
Define Horizontal Alignments
Create Profiles of the existing terrain and create a proposed Vertical Alignment
Create Templates (Typical Sections)
Use Corridor Modeling to create a proposed model
Set up Transitions using Templates, Point Controls and Parametrics
Set up Superelevation using AASHTO or DOT standards
Create Cross Sections showing existing and proposed models
Compute Volumes including End Area
Create Plan and Profile Sheets

This manual is suitable for self-paced learning or a classroom environment.
