Book excerpt: Pavements are the most ubiquitous of all man-made structures, and they have an enormous impact on environmental quality. They are responsible for hydrocarbon pollutants, excess runoff, groundwater decline and the resulting local water shortages, temperature increases in the urban "heat island," and for the ability of trees to extend their roots in

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a foundation to understand the development of sustainability in civil engineering, and tools to address the three pillars of sustainability: economics, environment, and society. It includes case studies in the five major areas of civil engineering: environmental, structural, geotechnical, transportation, and construction management. This second edition is updated throughout and adds new chapters on construction engineering as well as an overview of the most common certification programs that revolve around environmental sustainability. Features: Updated throughout and adds two entirely new chapters Presents a review of the most common certification programs in sustainability Offers a blend of numerical and writing-based problems, as well as numerous application-based examples that utilize concepts found on the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam Includes several practical case studies Offers a solution manual for instructors Fundamentals of Sustainability in Civil Engineering is intended for upper-level civil engineering sustainability courses. A unique feature is that concepts found in the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam were targeted to help senior-level students refresh and prepare.
Download or read book Socioeconomic and Environmental Impacts of Paving Gravel Roads written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A primary purpose of this report is to review and summarize studies that provided comparative data on the impacts of paved roads and unpaved roads for selected environmental factors. The results of the literature search suggest that comparative studies of the impacts of paved versus unpaved roads are not well documented for a broad range of environmental impacts. Dust impacts of unpaved roads on air quality, water quality, aquatic habitat, and the effectiveness of dust control and suppression measures, including paving, are well documented and provide a basis for making comparisons. Little comparative information on the other environmental factors considered for this report was found. A literature review, surveys, and data analyses indicate that paving gravel roads may raise property values and vehicle speed. Paving has little effect on traffic volume, economic development, employment, tourism and recreation. Evidence from testing an empirical model suggests that paving may reduce fatal accident rates. However, this finding may also be attributable to safety improvements which often accompany paving rather than the paving itself. Because there are a number of plausible explanations for this finding, the issue should receive further study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 802: Volume Reduction of Highway Runoff in Urban Areas: Guidance Manual explores practices for the reduction of stormwater volumes in urban highway environments. The report outlines a five-step process for the identification, evaluation, and design of solutions for runoff volume reduction based on site-specific conditions. The manual also includes a set of volume reduction approach fact sheets and a user guide for the Volume Performance Tool." -- publisher's description
Download or read book Gravel Roads written by Ken Skorseth and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.
