Synopsis
Excerpt from Highway Inspectors' Handbook
Highway construction and maintenance, as briefly as possible, in such form as to be quickly available to the Inspector, who wishes to be told what to do rather than what others have done under various conditions. It has, of course, been necessary to include considerable explanatory matter in order that he may follow directions and suggestions intelligently. In place of tables, so commonly found in most handbooks, the author has made use of a large number of diagrams in order to save Space and present data in convenient form for field use. These diagrams have been prepared from the most reliable data that he has been able to secure, from his own experience and from various records of work done through out the country. On some subjects, however, the available information is very limited, and criticisms and comments will be appreciated from engineers who may have occasion certain of these diagrams and find that the values.
