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.

Book excerpt: "The Challenge: Highway and street construction workers (SIC 1611) and other workers on highway construction sites are at risk of death or serious injury when working near passing motorists, construction vehicles, and equipment. From 1992-2000, 910 worker fatalities occurred in work zones; 91% (n=826) were vehicle- or equipment-related. Of the 797 cases for which vehicle type was known, 490 (61%) were associated with a construction vehicle, 256 (32%) with a traffic vehicle, and 51 (6%) with both. Pedestrian workers were as likely to be struck by a construction vehicle (n=258) as by a passing traffic vehicle (n=250). Approach: Project staff planned and facilitated out a 3-day workshop in December 1998. The 60 attendees represented key stakeholders, including the Federal Highway Administration, National Safety Council, Deere & Company, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, 3M, Jefferson Group, OSHA, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, International Union of Operating Engineers, Reflexite, Laborers = Health and Safety Fund of North America, and Industrial Safety Equipment Association. Workshop preparations included conceptualizing topic areas (safety of pedestrian workers, safety of equipment operators, planning for safe work, and night work), obtaining a contracted literature review, and developing "white papers" to serve as background for discussions at the workshop. Scientific and technical literature was synthesized with input received at the workshop to develop the 2001 NIOSH document Building Safer Highway Work Zones. Public comment was obtained through a Federal Register notice and direct requests to stakeholders. Results: The primary product of this research was a NIOSH document, Building Safer Highway Work Zones, which addresses a broad range of interventions to prevent worker deaths and injuries associated with vehicles and equipment. Some injury prevention approaches discussed in the document are directly related to construction operations (e.g., work zone layout, flagger safety, illumination of the work space, and use of temporary traffic control devices), while others focus on management practices that can affect worker safety (e.g., incorporating safety elements into the bidding process, pre-planning for traffic control inside the work space, and coordination between multiple contractors on the same site). The document also offers case studies suitable for worker training sessions or safety talks. Impact: A primary impact of this work is greater recognition, particularly among the government and construction industry groups that build and oversee the Nation's roads, that construction vehicles pose a substantial safety risk to pedestrian workers. At this project's inception, the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the federal guideline for temporary traffic control, required that only flaggers wear high-visibility clothing. A measure that all workers in work zones wear high-visibility clothing appeared in Building Safer Highway Work Zones and in later comments on proposed rulemakings. The 2003 MUTCD revision incorporated this NIOSH measure. Building Safer Highway Work Zones continues to be a resource for the highway construction industry and has been reprinted a number of times, with almost 19,000 copies distributed to date. A number of commercial insurers distribute it to clients engaged in highway construction, and it has been adapted into training modules geared to highway workers."--NIOSHTIC-2.

Download or read book The Happiness Equation written by Neil Pasricha and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The #1 international bestseller from the author of The Book of Awesome that “reveals how all of us can live happier lives” (Gretchen Rubin). What is the formula for a happy life? Neil Pasricha is a Harvard MBA, a New York Times–bestselling author, a Walmart executive, a father, a husband. After selling more than a million copies of the Book of Awesome series, wherein he observed the everyday things he thought were awesome, he now shifts his focus to the practicalities of living an awesome life. In his new book The Happiness Equation, Pasricha illustrates how to want nothing and do anything in order to have everything. If that sounds like a contradiction in terms, you simply have yet to unlock the 9 Secrets to Happiness. Each secret takes a piece out of the core of common sense, turns it on its head to present it in a completely new light, and then provides practical and specific guidelines for how to apply this new outlook to lead a fulfilling life. Once you've unlocked Pasricha’s 9 Secrets, you will understand counter intuitive concepts such as: Success Does Not Lead to Happiness, Never Take Advice, and Retirement Is a Broken Theory. You will learn and then master three brand-new fundamental life tests: the Saturday Morning Test, The Bench Test, and the Five People Test. You will know the difference between external goals and internal goals and how to make more money than a Harvard MBA (hint: it has nothing to do with your annual salary). You will discover that true wealth has nothing to do with money, multitasking is a myth, and the elimination of options leads to more choice. The Happiness Equation is a book that will change how you think about pretty much everything—your time, your career, your relationships, your family, and, ultimately, of course, your happiness.
