Publisher's Synopsis
To pass the Civil PE exam's transportation depth section, you'll need to be familiar with the exam topics and how to use relevant equations. The Transportation Depth Reference Manual for the Civil PE Exam provides comprehensive coverage of the exam topics. Detailed tables, figures, and appendices make it possible to solve many exam problems using the Depth Reference Manual alone. Example problems demonstrate how concepts are applied, and end-of-chapter problems provide opportunity for independent practice.
