Design and Construction of Bridge Approaches
Includes case histories of the Dumbarton Bridge (San Francisco Bay, Calif.), the Rainier Avenue Embankment (Seattle, Wash.) and the Gallows Road Grade Separation (Fairfax, Va.)
Computer-aided Design and Drafting Systems
This synthesis will be of interest to administrators, designers, computer personnel, and others interested in the operation and management of computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) systems. Information is provided on selection and implementation of CADD systems, current use in state departments of transportation (DOTs), and issues involved in managing a CADD system and CADD operators. Most state DOTs either have or plan to acquire CADD systems to improve their design, drafting, and mapping operations. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the processes for selecting and implementing a CADD system, current practices of state DOTs in applying and using CADD, and training and performance issues with respect to CADD personnel.
Signing Policies, Procedures, Practices, and Fees for Logo and Tourist-oriented Directional Signing
"This synthesis will be of interest to traffic engineers, pplanners, and others interested in providing directorial guidance to motorists. Information is provided on policies and procedures used by states in establishing and operating signing programs that provide information on available motorist services and tourist attractions."Avant-propos.
Evaluation of Pavement Friction Characteristics
This synthesis report will be of interest to pavement design, construction, management, and research engineers, highway safety officials, and others concerned with pavement friction characteristics. It describes the current state of the practice and discusses the methods used for evaluating wet pavement friction characteristics of new and restored pavements. This synthesis reviews models used for measuring and evaluating friction and texture, causes for friction changes over time, and aggregate and mix design to provide adequate friction. Also presented are construction and surface restoration practices for providing good pavement surface characteristics. In addition, considerations of noise and ride quality are discussed when compromise may be required.
