Attrition Tests of Road-making Stones

<p><i>Attrition Tests of Road-making Stones</i> details the methods and findings related to evaluating the durability of various stones used in road construction. Authored by John S. Flett E J Lovegrove and J Allen Howe this work focuses on the mechanical testing processes designed to determine a stone's resistance to wear and tear under the stresses of traffic and environmental conditions. Understanding the attrition rates of road-making materials is crucial for ensuring the longevity and safety of roadways.</p> <p>This book provides valuable insights into the techniques employed for assessing the quality and suitability of different types of stone offering a historical perspective on the importance of material selection in civil engineering projects. It is an essential resource for engineers geologists and anyone involved in the construction and maintenance of roads.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
