Highway Construction and Maintenance
This text has been updated to include new Department of Transport and British standards for highway construction. It contains new sections covering developments in technology, recycling of aggregates, road layout and funding. The book is illustrated throghout with diagrams and tables, deals with roads of all types, and provides a useful guide which emphasizes a practical approach to the subject. This study is designed for use by undergraduates taking course in civil engineering.

Highway Construction
Excerpt from Highway Construction: A Practical Guide to Modern Methods of Roadbuilding and the Development of Better Ways of Communication The science of good road building is an old one as evidenced by the many highways in Europe which have withstood the wear of travel for centuries. Most of these famous roads were cut from solid rock or built of crushed stone of such a character as to be unaffected by weather conditions. Modern road building, however, has been largely influenced within the past fifteen years by the enormous increase in the amount of travel due to the automobile. This has not only been the means of developing new road surface to meet the more severe requirements of this typ...
Roadwork
Roadwork Theory and Practice gives the essential information needed by every road worker, highway technician, incorporated, graduate or chartered engineer, not only by explaining the theory of road construction and its associated activities, but by illustrating its application with practical working methods that are in use in everyday engineering practice. As such, it successfully bridges the gap so often found between civil engineering theory and the day-to-day work of a highways engineer.Now in its fifth edition, this classic textbook has been fully revised in line with recent changes to EU standards, legislation, terminology and specifications. The new edition now includes end of chapter review questions and references for further reading.Students will find this text fully caters for the requirements of BTEC National and NVQ qualifications in construction, civil engineering and highways maintenance. In addition, content has been matched to the specifications of the new Higher Nationals in Civil Engineering from Edexcel. Professionals will find the new edition to be an invaluable up-to-date reference source, especially of relevance to recent graduates new to the work place.
