Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Highway Engineering This book has been written at the suggestion of several professors of civil engineering who desire to use a didactic text, covering the principles of highway engineering, of such length as to be suitable for one-semester courses included in civil engineering curricula. The text of this work is made up of original manuscript, and also of material from the " Text-book on Highway Engineering," by Blanchard and Drowne, which has been revised and remodelled to meet the requirements of a book suitable for use by engineering students who take courses in highway engineering aggregating from one to three hours a week for one-half of the collegiate year. It should be noted that the " Text-book on Highway Engineering" was designed to be a comprehensive text for highway engineering students and a reference book for engineers. Each chapter of the "Elements of Highway Engineering" has been written with a view to emphasizing the fundamental principles which have been evolved from past experience as well as from the modern practice of highway engineering which, as a science and an art, is rapidly developing in the fields of economics, administration, legislation, materials, and methods. Specifications, per se, examples of construction, and detailed cost data have been omitted, as such material is not considered essential to a broad general knowledge of the science of highway engineering. The text of the chapters, occupying 450 pages, has been profusely illustrated with 202 figures, equivalent in space to 85 pages. As the nomenclature of materials and methods of construction and maintenance may be confusing to the student, a glossary, constituting Appendix I, has been included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context-sensitive solutions (CSS) reflect the need to consider highway projects as more than just transportation facilities. Depending on how highway projects are integrated into the community, they can have far-reaching impacts beyond their traffic or transportation function. CSS is a comprehensive process that brings stakeholders together in a positive, proactive environment to develop projects that not only meet transportation needs, but also improve or enhance the community. Achieving a flexible, context-sensitive design solution requires designers to fully understand the reasons behind the processes, design values, and design procedures that are used. This AASHTO Guide shows highway designers how to think flexibly, how to recognize the many choices and options they have, and how to arrive at the best solution for the particular situation or context. It also strives to emphasize that flexible design does not necessarily entail a fundamentally new design process, but that it can be integrated into the existing transportation culture. This publication represents a major step toward institutionalizing CSS into state transportation departments and other agencies charged with transportation project development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing countries in the tropics have different natural conditions and different institutional and financial situations to industrialized countries. However, most textbooks on highway engineering are based on experience from industrialized countries with temperate climates, and deal only with specific problems. Road Engineering for Development (published as Highway and Traffic Engineering in Developing Countries in its first edition) provides a comprehensive description of the planning, design, construction and maintenance of roads in developing countries. It covers a wide range of technical and non-technical problems that may confront road engineers working in this area. The technical content of the book has been fully updated and current development issues are focused on. Designed as a fundamental text for civil engineering students this book also offers a broad, practical view of the subject for practising engineers. It has been written with the assistance of a number of world-renowned specialist professional engineers with many years experience in Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Central America.

Book excerpt: This reference book communicates the basic theoretical knowledge, the practical requirements and experience for designing, mapping, calculating and checking roads and the planning process overall and at the same time reveals important development trends. The book is guided by the current rules and regulations in Germany, it universalizes this knowledge and also integrates important current research results in road design processes. In order to restrict the scope of the book, it only deals with the theoretical principles and knowledge, and the practical experience for designing rural roads, i.e. the special features of urban roads are not mentioned here. This clear separation primarily results from the different principles and rules and regulations. The terms, definitions, abbreviations and formula symbols are based on German usage, but can be transferred to an international framework without any difficulties. The work is particularly designed to be a course book for students of road design. As a reference book, it supports the ongoing training process for road transportation engineers in planning offices and public bodies. Any specialist working in the transportation sector can use it as a reference book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new way forward for sustainable quality of life in cities of all sizes Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Build American Prosperity is a book of forward-thinking ideas that breaks with modern wisdom to present a new vision of urban development in the United States. Presenting the foundational ideas of the Strong Towns movement he co-founded, Charles Marohn explains why cities of all sizes continue to struggle to meet their basic needs, and reveals the new paradigm that can solve this longstanding problem. Inside, you’ll learn why inducing growth and development has been the conventional response to urban financial struggles—and why it just doesn’t work. New development and high-risk investing don’t generate enough wealth to support itself, and cities continue to struggle. Read this book to find out how cities large and small can focus on bottom-up investments to minimize risk and maximize their ability to strengthen the community financially and improve citizens’ quality of life. Develop in-depth knowledge of the underlying logic behind the “traditional” search for never-ending urban growth Learn practical solutions for ameliorating financial struggles through low-risk investment and a grassroots focus Gain insights and tools that can stop the vicious cycle of budget shortfalls and unexpected downturns Become a part of the Strong Towns revolution by shifting the focus away from top-down growth toward rebuilding American prosperity Strong Towns acknowledges that there is a problem with the American approach to growth and shows community leaders a new way forward. The Strong Towns response is a revolution in how we assemble the places we live.
