Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Leading Guide To Site Design And Engineering—Revised And Updated Site Engineering for Landscape Architects is the topchoice for site engineering, planning, and construction courses aswell as for practitioners in the field, with easy-to-understandcoverage of the principles and techniques of basic site engineeringfor grading, drainage, earthwork, and road alignment. The SixthEdition has been revised to address the latest developments inlandscape architecture while retaining an accessible approach tocomplex concepts. The book offers an introduction to landform and the language ofits design, and explores the site engineering concepts essential topracticing landscape architecture today—from interpretinglandform and contour lines, to designing horizontal and verticalroad alignments, to construction sequencing, to designing andsizing storm water management systems. Integrating design withconstruction and implementation processes, the authors enablereaders to gain a progressive understanding of the material. This edition contains completely revised information on stormwater management and green infrastructure, as well as many new andupdated case studies. It also includes updated coverage of stormwater management systems design, runoff calculations, and naturalresource conservation. Graphics throughout the book have beenrevised to bring a consistent, clean approach to theillustrations. Perfect for use as a study guide for the most difficult sectionof the Landscape Architect Registration Exam (LARE) or as a handyprofessional reference, Site Engineering for LandscapeArchitects, Sixth Edition gives readers a strong foundation insite development that is environmentally sensitive andintellectually stimulating.

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 Rethinking America s Highways written by Robert W. Poole and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A transportation expert makes a provocative case for changing the nation’s approach to highways, offering “bold, innovative thinking on infrastructure” (Rick Geddes, Cornell University). Americans spend hours every day sitting in traffic. And the roads they idle on are often rough and potholed, with exits, tunnels, guardrails, and bridges in terrible disrepair. According to transportation expert Robert Poole, this congestion and deterioration are outcomes of the way America manages its highways. Our twentieth-century model overly politicizes highway investment decisions, short-changing maintenance and often investing in projects whose costs exceed their benefits. In Rethinking America’s Highways, Poole examines how our current model of state-owned highways came about and why it is failing to satisfy its customers. He argues for a new model that treats highways themselves as public utilities—like electricity, telephones, and water supply. If highways were provided commercially, Poole argues, people would pay for highways based on how much they used, and the companies would issue revenue bonds to invest in facilities people were willing to pay for. Arguing for highway investments to be motivated by economic rather than political factors, this book makes a carefully-reasoned and well-documented case for a new approach to highways.
