Reviews

"The second edition not only offers significant insight into the theoretical framework underlying frequently used design procedures, but also highlights significant innovations, as well as addressing issues of management, maintenance, rehabilitation and overlays for pavements. Revised editions of such a text would always find their place in university libraries, on consultants’ shelves and on students’ bedside tables. … a very welcome publication that will be equally useful for related professionals, teachers, researchers and students."
—Structures and Buildings, May 2015"This book is the most comprehensive reference on the subject of concrete pavements. Included are chapters on pavement design, mixture design, construction and even performance. It’s all you need to know about concrete pavements in a single source."
