"Principles of pavement engineering offers a sound engineering understanding to those learning, practising or researching in the pavement field, including highways, airfields, ports and industrial pavements. The book is concerned with the basic principles underlying material behaviour, pavement design and maintenance, allowing readers to engage with real engineering issues as well as understanding the design codes that underpin them. Calculation approaches are introduced which challenge conventional thought; design is presented as the indeterminate subject that it really is; pavement rehabilitation is covered as a serious topic in its own right."

"In an industry as economically vital as the pavement industry it is essential that correct design and construction principles are followed. This book includes a realistic assessment of the uncertainty inherent in pavement construction, a balancing of risk and reward, and a consideration of the 'bigger picture' - i.e. the consequences of pavement deterioration." "This book will be essential reading for pavement engineers at all levels and a key reference for advanced students and graduates."--Jacket.�
Abstract: Discusses the basic principles underlying material behavior, pavement design and maintenance. This book covers various types of pavement material and construction techniques and concentrates on the fundamentals of performance. It is suitable for practicing engineers.�
