Publisher's Synopsis
This up-to-date edition of the classic text presents a broad overview of highway engineering and is the first to incorporate major changes in design standards from a policy on geometric design of highways and streets, published by AASHTO in 1984. Also included are changes in the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual, and new chapters on computer applications in highway engineering and highway mass transit foundations, along with sections on engineering fabrics, reinforced earth embankments, and pavement recycling and rehabilitation. The book includes an illustration of a typical highway design plan.
