Key Modules and Learning Objectives

1. NHAI Project Lifecycle and Guidelines

• Project Stages: Feasibility studies, DPR (Detailed Project Report) preparation, tendering, execution, and handover.

  • Example: Preparing a DPR for a 100km highway, including traffic analysis and environmental impact assessments.

• Compliance: Adhering to NHAI’s Works Manual and MORTH (Ministry of Road Transport and Highways) standards.

2. Risk Management and Contract Administration

• Risk Mitigation: Addressing delays due to land acquisition, monsoon disruptions, or material shortages.

  • Case Study: Resolving a 6-month delay in a ₹500 crore highway project caused by unresolved land disputes.

• Contract Types: Understanding EPC, BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer), and Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) contracts.

3. Cost Estimation and Budgeting

• Rate Analysis: Calculating costs for earthwork, pavement layers, and bridges.

  • Formula: Embankment Cost = Quantity (m³) × (Excavation + Compaction + Material Rates).

  • Example: Estimating costs for 50,000m³ of embankment at ₹800/m³.

4. Quality Control and Safety Protocols

• QA/QC Practices: Testing subgrade CBR (California Bearing Ratio) and bitumen penetration values.

  • Practical Exercise: Auditing a flexible pavement’s granular sub-base (GSB) layer for thickness and compaction.

5. Geotechnical and Surveying Techniques

• Soil Stabilization: Using geosynthetics or lime treatment for weak subgrades.

  • Example: Stabilizing 10km of black cotton soil for a highway in Maharashtra.

• Alignment Surveys: Conducting topographic surveys to optimize road geometry.

6. Environmental and Social Impact Management

• ESIA Compliance: Mitigating deforestation and noise pollution in eco-sensitive zones.

  • Case Study: Re-routing a highway section to protect a wildlife corridor in Rajasthan.

Career Opportunities

• Job Roles: NHAI Project Manager, Highway Design Engineer, Contract Administrator.

• Industries: Infrastructure development, public works, urban planning.

Why Enroll?

• Industry-Relevant Curriculum: Covers NHAI guidelines, HAM contracts, and geotechnical best practices.

• Practical Training: Real-world examples from highway, bridge, and tunnel projects.
