Book Description
The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Book Description
Legal axle weight limits were increased in California effective January 1, 1976. Heavier axle loadings increase the destructive effect on highway pavements and bridge structures and reduce the effective service life. Caltrans undertook a study to develop cost data to determine the construction and maintenance costs attributable to trucks.
