[riz]

I been told there is a trip distribution and generation quastion in the afternoon

any has any equation , hand out or example for (origin destination) type quastion

any idea what we need for trip generation quastion ? do we need trip generation book ? ?

I did some research , no luck in finding good example

appreciate any input

finally I got some info about the subject

for trip distribution :

gravity model is been used more often, which is base on Newton low

Interaction between two centers = {(balancing factor) x (Attraction Population) x (Production population)} divided by square of distance between (Attr. & Prod. zones)

looking for good example , if I find one I will share it for sure

I have never talked to anyone that needed the ITE trip generation manuals, I think even NCEES realizes thats too many books to take in.

I would learn how to work the charts in the trip generation manuals.

Did you find an example problem you were looking for? I think there is one in the Sample PE Exam that I purchased the my CERM (10th Edition).

Garber and Noel “traffic and highway engineering” is one of the best explanation of Trip Generation. I am not very good at it yet, but they do have very good examples. See page 549+- for details.

Good luck on the test
