Download or read book Surface Design and Rehabilitation Guidelines for Low volume Roads written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual is for use by owners, managers, and engineers involved with the design, rehabilitation, and maintenance of surfacing for low-volume road networks. The considerations and constraints associated with the design process are discussed. These include drainage, geometrics, traffic, materials, surface characteristics, and shoulders. Design procedures especially for low-volume roads are given for both paved and aggregate surfaces. Paved surfaces include surface treatments, asphalt concrete, and portland cement concrete. Methods of maintaining and rehabilitating low-volume roads are also presented because of the importance of protecting the large investment in existing low-volume roads. Finally, a discussion of pavement management practices and the basics of pavement evaluation and performance is given so low-volume road agencies can begin to develop these useful tools.
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.

Download or read book Low Volume Road Engineering written by Robert A. Douglas and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Everything that sustains us – grown, mined, or drilled – begins its journey to us on a low-volume road (Long)." Defined as roads with traffic volumes of no more than 400 vehicles per day, they have enormous impacts on economies, communication, and social interaction. Low-volume roads comprise, at one end of the spectrum, farm-to-market roads, roads in developing countries, northern roads, roads on aboriginal lands and parklands; and at the other end of the spectrum, heavy haul roads for mining, oil and gas, oil sands extraction, and forestry. Low-Volume Road Engineering: Design, Construction, and Maintenance gives an international perspective to the engineering design of low-volume roads and their construction and maintenance. It is a single reference drawing from the dispersed literature. It lays out the basic principles of each topic, from road location and geometric design, pavement design, slope stability and erosion control, through construction to maintenance, then refers the reader to more comprehensive treatment elsewhere. Wherever possible, comparisons are made between the standard specifications and practices existing in the US, Canada, the UK, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Topics covered include the following: Road classification, location, and geometric design Pavement concepts, materials, and thickness design Drainage, erosion and sediment control, and watercrossings Slope stability Geosynthetics Road construction, maintenance, and maintenance management Low-Volume Road Engineering: Design, Construction, and Maintenance is a valuable reference for engineers, planners, designers and project managers in consulting firms, contracting firms and NGOs. It also is an essential reference in support of university courses on transportation engineering and planning, and on mining, oil and gas, and forestry infrastructure.

Download or read book Low Volume Roads Engineering Best Management Practices Field Guide written by Gordon Keller and published by . This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Low-Volume Roads Engineering Best Management Practices Field Guide is intended to provide an overview of the key planning, location, design, construction, and maintenance aspects of roads that can cause adverse environmental impacts and to list key ways to prevent those impacts. Best Management Practices are general techniques or design practices that, when applied and adapted to fit site-specific conditions, will prevent or reduce pollution and maintain water quality. BMPs for roads have been developed by many agencies since roads often have a major adverse impact on water quality, and most of those impacts are preventable with good engineering and management practices. Roads that are not well planned or located, not properly designed or constructed, not well maintained, or not made with durable materials often have negative effects on water quality and the environment.

Download or read book Best Practices to Support and Improve Pavement Management Systems for Low volume Paved Roads written by Marwan Hafez and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has been trying to identify the most effective methods for managing low-volume roads (LVRs). These roads are facing multiple challenges including: reductions in maintenance budgets, impact of industrial activities, and potentially not receiving the most cost effective treatments. Considerable savings can be secured by implementing an effective and informed management system for all LVRs engineering issues, including: planning, design, and maintenance.

Download or read book Road Performance and Rehabilitation written by Kerry McManus and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pavement Performance Models and methods of performance measurement have been developed for managers of major road networks.They require the substantial investment of resources to run, that are normally beyond the capacity of Local Government Authorities wishing to apply them to the low volume road network under their control.This work reviews the range of measurement means available and discusses their application in the Local Government situation. A review of some of the Pavement Performance Models is made and their utility for application to low volume roads is canvassed. Finally, a study is made of the development of Performance Models for Local Government pavements in the Melbourne, Victoria, Australia region. This work should appeal to Local Government Authorities who have to provide low volume road infrastructure and manage the performance and rehabilitation. It should be of interest to Infrastructure Asset Managers, Engineering practitioners, academics and researchers in the field of Road Engineering.
Download or read book Recycling and Rehabilitating Low volume Roads written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately 25,000 miles of the roadway system maintained by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation are classified as low-volume collector or access roads. In many instances the condition of these roadways can no longer be significantly improved by routine maintenance, and thus major rehabilitation is warranted. The existing surface and base course materials on these roadways represent an investment by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. The development of a reliable and predictable procedure to utilize this existing roadway material to the best advantage would be valuable in extending the mileage that can be rehabilitated with existing resources. Cold-recycling is a potentially cost-effective procedure for reconstructing these low-volume roads. Two roadways were cold-recycled in place during 1985-1986 using emulsion and cement/fly ash stabilization. The mixture design, construction operations and performance of these roads were monitored as part of this project.
