Produktbeschreibung

Building Better Roads explores the evolution and science of road construction, from ancient pathways to modern smart highways. It examines how civil engineering, materials science, and urban planning intersect to create transportation infrastructure.

The book highlights the historical context, noting how Roman road-building techniques laid the foundation for modern practices. It further investigates how changing materials, like the shift from gravel to advanced asphalt and concrete, have improved road durability and sustainability.

The book progresses logically, starting with the fundamental science of road construction, including soil mechanics and material properties. It then explores the history of road development across different eras and cultures.

A central focus is modern road construction methods, covering pavement design and traffic management.

The book concludes with a look at emerging technologies, such as self-healing pavements and sustainable construction practices. This approach makes complex topics accessible to a broad audience interested in the technology and history of roads.
