| dc.description.abstract | Road traffic accident is becoming the major problem globally. Our country is also facing the problem currently with increasing trend of the magnitude of the problem from time to time. Addis Ababa, the capital of the nation is the major area where traffic accident is occurring in the country. One of the main reasons for road traffic accident is thought to be due to the absence of separate way for pedestrian crossing and imbalance between the number of pedestrians, vehicle number and size of the road. Considering the new railway line of Addis Ababa if it continuous this way the traffic accident will increase. To minimize this and facilitate the movement of rail vehicle its vital to provide a separate way for the pedestrians from the railway track. And this thesis facilitate and smoothies the flow of rail vehicles by designing pedestrian crossing truss bridge in the roads congested with pedestrians, vehicles and railway track by the methods of Finite Element analysis, modeling and simulating software’s such as CATIA, SOLIDWORK and ANSYS. This Design permits rail vehicles to have smooth and safe way by avoiding pedestrian’s interference since it allows them a separate crossing way. | en_US |
