Trade-offs between geometric design standards and safety for low volume roads

Creator:: Kornsombut, Aram
Abstract:: Geometric design standards have not been developed specifically for low volume roads. Design standards and criteria are extrapolated from higher standard roadways that are often not relevant to low volume roads. Safety is a primary criterion used for selection of design standards along with economic, financial, social and environment factors....

An economic comparison of the construction of coastal logging roads by power shovel and tractor

Creator:: Stringer, Terence Neil
Abstract:: Logging road construction in the coastal regions of British Columbia has always been a difficult and expensive undertaking. The soils are generally ill-suited to road construction, rock outcrops are numerous, and climatic conditions unfavourable. In addition, the mineral soils are overlaid by a heavy layer of partly decomposed organic material....

Road design process for low volume recreation and resource development roads

Creator:: Kramer, Brian W.
Abstract:: This study presents a rational process with supporting data to establish appropriate road design controls, criteria, and standards for low volume recreation and resource development. Much of the information presented can be used to supplement design data presented in a National road design policy published by the American Association of...

Evaluation of alternate surfacing systems for temporary and intermittent use roads

Creator:: Takallou, Mojtaba B.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to provide the USDA-Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and other agencies or industries that may deal with temporary and intermittent use roads with the necessary background information for the identification, economic evaluation, and selection of the alternate surfacing systems and to determine...

The evaluation of the field vane shear strength analysis of the Glen Aiken creek embankment failure

Creator:: Clarke, James Dennis
Abstract:: A post-failure investigation of a highway embankment constructed over organic and sensitive subsoils was made with a series of field vane tests. The results indicated that the embankment was quite stable, and, therefore, the reliabilities of both the Φ = 0 slip-circle analysis and the field vane results seemed to...

Designing woodland roads

Creator:: Oregon State College. Federal Cooperative Extension Service, Bowers, S. (Steven Clay), and Garland, John J.
Abstract:: Provides detailed information for the non-engineer on how to locate, design, and construct a road. Topics include identifying desirable and undesirable land features, constructing crowned, inslope, outslope, full-bench, and balanced roads, meeting road width, alignment, grade, excavation, drainage, and other structural requirements, laying out curves, and directing construction. Includes 25...
