Very helpful, You are an amazing teacher after searching a number of videos on UA-cam and most of them wasted our time you taught the concepts in a very precise and directly to the point. I wish we would have such teachers in our institutes, Most of them try to make us grade machines instead of giving us concepts.
I'm glad to hear that this was useful for you. This list of playlists has some additional videos that you might find helpful: sites.google.com/ncsu.edu/daniel-findley/educational-resources
I have been trying to find the difference between horizontal and vertical alignments and was not successful in finding that info until now. Thanks, really informative video!

Michael - great suggestions, I continue to add videos and I'll add these to my list.

Yes, you can have sections without a horizontal curve, which can be called a "tangent". In these sections, the radius is essentially infinite (though in practice, no road is perfectly straight).
A recent video I posted shows three common perspectives - plan, profile, and cross-section. The profile view allows you to see the vertical alignment. In the video, I discuss how the example shows a flat vertical alignment (0% grade), but it could be a positive, negative, or even a vertical curve in combination with the horizontal curve. ua-cam.com/video/5gYALaNc2BU/v-deo.html
. .Please for all your videos, Many thanks for considering my request English is not my first language so it is hard to understand you, and I am learning to be fluent in English
Sir if u know MX road software for road design so proper teaching video upload on your youtube channel... Then we help learning MX road from your channel
To the extent possible, they generally are (the shortest path is always a straight line) - however, many things may need to be avoided, including: homes, water (lakes, rivers, creeks....), forests, mountains, businesses, etc.
Still till this day, 10 years later, your videos are still useful and helpful, thank you for posting this.

I'm glad this was helpful for you, best wishes with your studies!
I have been trying to find the difference between horizontal and vertical alignments and was not successful in finding that info until now. Thanks, really informative video!
Thats the best I got to acquire practical example. Thanks a lot..
Thanks Daniel this video can help my assignment efficiently. : )
This is the best video ever.
Exceptionally well after 3 yrs i know exact what horizontal and vertical allingment is i was confused
Tq bro for this video.. It really helps me to understand.. 😃😃
Best video ever to understand basics.. Please make of video of design of horizontal and vertical alignment design
Thanks, what topic did you have in mind? This playlist has a lot of H&V videos: go.ncsu.edu/transportationeducation

Thank you so much for uploading!! Not too many videos like this on youtube!
Brilliant video. Thanks champ.
Дружище ты Красава! Thank you Very much!
Hey daniel
can you do some examples or explain traffic control devices, traffic flow theo..?
Michael - great suggestions, I continue to add videos and I'll add these to my list. In the meantime, here are a couple of videos I use on these topics:

Thanks, I want to arise a point ,that in road ,we sometimes can have an horizontal curve or the horizontal curve is zero?
Yes, you can have sections without a horizontal curve, which can be called a "tangent". In these sections, the radius is essentially infinite (though in practice, no road is perfectly straight).
Thanks, very clear explanation.
Very well explained sir
Thanks for this video! It was very helpful
TheCrownedBelle no thank you my beautiful ebony black lady queen 👸🏽
Okay presentation, could you explain how to sync horizontal and vertical design of curves, the best way of design. Pls explain
This video might have what you're looking for: ua-cam.com/video/lx06ss7ZSKU/v-deo.html
Thank you ...this video helped me Love you man
I really appreciate this video I wanna know what I do exactly If I want to do a road project pleaseThanks for asking
Thank for sharing this video!
awesome tutorial
i don't get the point of vertical curve and horizontal curve prospective when we see vertical and when horiz.
A recent video I posted shows three common perspectives - plan, profile, and cross-section. The profile view allows you to see the vertical alignment. In the video, I discuss how the example shows a flat vertical alignment (0% grade), but it could be a positive, negative, or even a vertical curve in combination with the horizontal curve.

Daniel Findley ok thanks for reply
thank you. could you please add English subtitle to the videos
Yes, I added them. Hopefully they will be helpful for you.
Thank you :-)

.Please for all your videos, Many thanks for considering my request
English is not my first language so it is hard to understand you, and I am learning to be fluent in English
jude jude my name is jude to 😆
Thank You
You're welcome!
Thank you ...this video helped me
Sir if u know MX road software for road design so proper teaching video upload on your youtube channel... Then we help learning MX road from your channel
why roads are not straight?
To the extent possible, they generally are (the shortest path is always a straight line) - however, many things may need to be avoided, including: homes, water (lakes, rivers, creeks....), forests, mountains, businesses, etc.
thank you for your help.
Thank you !
superb
