Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Even a well established technical field, such as the manufacture, maintenance, and repair of road and airfield pavement is constantly changing. This timely volume contains the papers delivered at a conference held in July 2013 and features a special section on sustainability in pavement engineering, with papers exploring topics ranging from the harvest of green energy from roads to the energy-saving manufacture of foam asphalt. The preface itself appears to have been written before the conference was held in July 2013.
