Summary: Annotation Based on the latest AASHTO Design Codes! RAMP UP YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF HIGHWAY ENGINEERING! As America's infrastructure ages, this carefully designed system of highways and byways demands greater renovations and repairs. And with state and federal regulations continually changing, engineers require up-do-date guidance on the environmental regulations and design codes governing highway construction -- along with comprehensive coverage of contemporary highway design. Here's just the resource they need! Written with authority by a group of renowned civil engineering experts, "Highway Engineering Handbook delivers the full scope of information necessary for effective and cost-conscious highway design. Through the book's focus on the processes of planning, design, construction, and maintenance rehabilitation, you will: * Understand the latest AASHTO design codes * Gain a working knowledge of recent breakthroughs in materials and of applications for material construction and paving processes *, Benefit from a wealth of illustrations, maps, graphs, and tables * And much, much more! No matter if you're a member of the civil engineering consulting community or an engineer responsible for designing, building, and maintaining highways, "Highway Engineering Handbook will keep your work in the fast lane!
