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 Road Repair Handbook written by Roderick D. Johnston and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Road Repair Handbook fully explains why roads and driveways fall apart and when they do, how to permanently fix them. Heavy on straightforward advice, practical tips, and construction strategies, the Road Repair Handbook covers the process and pitfalls inherent in repairing dirt, gravel, concrete, and asphalt roads. Intended for both the general public and those professionals responsible for constructing, repairing, and maintaining unimproved and paved roads, the Road Repair Handbook is the only book available today dedicated to the subject of universal road repair. Who will benefit from this complete and practical book? Landowners, rural citizens, government officials, contractors, engineers, planners, road associations, real estate professionals--just about anybody, anywhere, concerned with improving access, maintaining home values, or preventing vehicle deterioration. The Road Repair Handbook contains a rich blend of quality photographs, logic diagrams, spreadsheets, bar schedules, illustrations, imperial and metric conversion tables, a road construction, glossary, and an exhaustive index. Construction equipment homeowner association issues, and road construction materials are discussed in detail. Metric equivalents and an emphasis on unimproved dirt roads help to advance the book's worldwide appeal. Applicable BISAC codes would include HOM005000 - House and Home/Do-It-Yourself/General HOM010000 - House and Home/Repair.

Book excerpt: Potholes have become a problem of national proportions. We have seen Congress, in 1978, consider a special $250-million 'pothole bill, ' and in 1979 a special Federal-level Task Force was established to study the pothole. This booklet has been prepared for the specific purpose of assisting elected officials and non-engineering administrators of cities, towns, and military facilities in New England in understanding and managing their pothole problems in asphalt pavements. We have attempted to keep this booklet as non-technical as possible so that non-engineers can use it. (Author).

Download or read book Road Engineering for Development written by Richard Robinson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing countries in the tropics have different natural conditions and different institutional and financial situations to industrialized countries. However, most textbooks on highway engineering are based on experience from industrialized countries with temperate climates, and deal only with specific problems. Road Engineering for Development (published as Highway and Traffic Engineering in Developing Countries in its first edition) provides a comprehensive description of the planning, design, construction and maintenance of roads in developing countries. It covers a wide range of technical and non-technical problems that may confront road engineers working in this area. The technical content of the book has been fully updated and current development issues are focused on. Designed as a fundamental text for civil engineering students this book also offers a broad, practical view of the subject for practising engineers. It has been written with the assistance of a number of world-renowned specialist professional engineers with many years experience in Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Central America.

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.
