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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The steep rise in road mobility that has taken place during the last decades has resulted in some negative effects that are relevant from a social and economic point of view, such as accidents, congestion, and air pollution. Solutions to mitigate these effects have resulted in improvements in vehicles, infrastructure, and planning. Among these improvements are Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), or digital road maps, which are based on electronics, control and telecommunications. This book discusses highway construction financing; the balanced vehicular traffic model that describes traffic flow on highways; non-drivers as road users; road engineering and public-private partnerships in highway and transit infrastructure building.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pavements and Roads: Their Construction and Maintenance This book is a compilation of articles which have appeared in recent volumes of The Engineering and Building Record, edited with a view of eliminating whatever was of timely or local interest, and arranged by divisions for convenience of use. The science of paving and the need of proper maintenance of pavements is yet comparatively little understood in this country, and the same is true in even greater degree with regard to roads. The editor of the journal named was led to give the matter special attention by seeing what was done in Europe, during his visits there, and finally began an investigation of work on streets and roads in England, France and other countries, the result of which was the gathering of a large and very valuable mass of information in regard to the subject. Of this everything likely to be of practical use in America was printed in The Engineering and Building Record, and is given here in more convenient shape. With it appears a large quantity of matter from American sources, including the prize essays on Road Construction and Maintenance submitted in the competition instituted by the journal named in December, 1889. It will be seen that the great bulk of the book is made up of records of experience and statements of cost in different places. The comments are based on this experience.
