Road Engineering and Construction Practices for Cold Regions

Road Engineering and Construction Practices for Cold Regions CD includes multimedia presentations that describe and explain the principles of science and engineering related to road engineering and construction for cold regions. The contents are presented on 275 pages accessible sequentially or in any order through the use of a sophisticated navigation system. The text is augmented by 159 photographs, 248 figures, PowerPoint^® slide shows, clickable Internet links, downloadable software, and 175 complete reference documents.
