I am taking the WR Depth portion of the exam in October. I began studing in June, and have worked through the Geotechnical, and WR portions of the CERM. I plan to begin the Transportation section next. I don't want to spend to much time studying topics not covered on the exam. The NCEES, list the transportation topics below, that will be on the breadth portion of the exam.
Transportation 20%
A. Geometric Design
1. Horizontal curves
2. Vertical curves
3. Sight distance
4. Superelevation
5. Vertical and/or horizontal clearances
6. Acceleration and deceleration
The CERM covers much more than the list above. I just wanted to confirm with those that have taken the exam (pass or fail), that the topics listed above reflect the questions on the breadth portion of the exam. It seems light compared to the depth topics. Any advice for the breadth portion of the exam would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
