PROBLEM OF THE WEEK - Civil AM: Transportation NCEES Problem 129

We're reviewing Civil AM: Transportation Problem 129 in the NCEES Civil Practice Exams together because this involves an evaluation of traffic count data in a way that is non-typical (a single day of traffic counts is used to represent a month). The key for this problem is to read and understand the problem clearly (the NCEES improved the wording of the problem through an errata). The problem is looking for a seasonal factor that can be used to multiply the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) to arrive at an estimate of the peak or seasonal daily traffic volume. Give it a try, then watch the video.
