3. Definition Highway engineering is the branch of civil engineering 
concerned with design of pavement structure, design of geometric alingment for safe highways and road.
Highway engineering became popular after the World War in 20th Century

6. Flexible Pavement
Flexible pavements. Those which are surfaced with bituminous / asphalt materials. These types of pavements are called "flexible" since the total pavement structure bends or deflects due to traffic loads. A flexible pavement structure is generally composed of several layers of materials which can accommodate this "flexing".

8. Rigid Pavement
Rigid pavements. Those which are surfaced with portland cement concrete (PCC). These types of pavements are called "rigid" because they are substantially stiffer than flexible pavements due to PCC's high stiffness.

19. Social and environmental effects
Community cohesion: Where highways are created through existing communities, there can be reduced community cohesion and more difficult local access. Consequently property values have decreased in many cutoff neighborhoods, leading to decreased housing quality over time.
Noise Pollution  Highways generate more roadway noise thanarterial streets due to the higher operating speeds.
Air Pollution issues  Highways may contribute fewer emission than arterials carrying the same vehicle volumes.
