Landowners, rural citizens, government officials, contractors, engineers, planners, road associations, real estate professionals--just about anybody, anywhere, concerned with improving access, maintaining home values, or preventing vehicle deterioration. The Road Repair Handbook contains a rich blend of quality photographs, logic diagrams, spreadsheets, bar schedules, illustrations, imperial and metric conversion tables, a road construction, glossary, and an exhaustive index. Construction equipment homeowner association issues, and road construction materials are discussed in detail.

Book excerpt: 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.
