This book provides content related to transportation infrastructure, including but not limited to research on the construction of current land transportation railways, shipping docks, and transportation hubs, as well as explorative discussions and reflections on the future of smart freight infrastructure Currently, in the context of a globalized economy worldwide, the status of freight transportation is irreplaceable. On this basis, countries place great importance on the construction of logistics and freight infrastructure. This includes the construction of internal roads and railways, as well as external shipping and air transport routes. As a result, the construction of docks, railways, airports, and transportation hubs and facilities has been increasing day by day. With the advent of the intelligent era, the planning and construction of today's transportation hubs have also entered the age of intelligent construction. Research on railway line planning, the construction of smart docks, and the site selection and construction of transportation hubs has become increasingly important, as it not only concerns transportation efficiency but also affects the safety and cost of infrastructure use. Similarly, with the onset of the information age, intelligent regulation and monitoring have significantly enhanced our management and oversight of transportation infrastructure. Moreover, the construction of buildings has also entered the era of intelligent construction. With the assistance of artificial intelligence and information technology, construction techniques have developed rapidly. As for the updating of facilities along transportation routes from the last century to the present, there are now more stable guarantees and technical means in place. The discussion in this book encompasses four parts: Transportation Railroads and Planning Construction, Freight Terminals and Smart Transport Diversion, Selection of Transportation Stations and Rational Planning, and Thoughts and Practices on Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure. In our reflections on transportation infrastructure, we focus on discussing the routes of future intelligent technology facilities, including building structure and monitoring, as well as the process design of logistics transfers and the optimization of related structures. The readers of this book include researchers in the fields of transportation engineering, railways, and marine engineering, as well as construction engineers and PhD candidates in related fields.
