Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explains the guidelines for constructing and maintaining roads. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, American road construction was haphazard and unregulated, which prompted the author to present technical specifications and best practices for the construction of roads that were efficient, safe, and durable. Standards for materials such as asphalt, sand, and cement are outlined, as well as the necessity for thorough testing to guarantee their quality. Methods for preparing and maintaining the road surface using the specified materials are also explained. The book concludes by discussing repair techniques and the proper way to lay out a road. If you're a reader who enjoys works of civil engineering, this book provides a fascinating look into how roads were constructed over a century ago, and if you're a civil engineer, this book provides a great foundation for road construction and maintenance techniques.
