Title: CURRENT PRACTICES IN SHOULDER DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS
Accession Number: 00203811
Record Type: Component
Abstract: MUCH UNREPORTED, IN-HOUSE STATE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT WORK HAS BEEN DONE ON SHOULDER MAINTENANCE METHODS, EQUIPMENT AND REQUIREMENTS, CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT AND METHODS, DESIGN REQUIREMENTS, TRAFFIC CONTROL REGULATIONS, MARKINGS AND WARRANTS, AND COST EFFECTIVENESS. THIS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT WORK CUTS ACROSS MANY OF THE DISCIPLINES REPRESENTED IN THE TWO HRB COMMITTEES, "OPERATIONAL EFFECTS OF GEOMETRICS" AND "SHOULDER DESIGN." THERE IS SOME CONCERN THAT VARIABLES OF GREATEST CONCERN TO EACH OF THESE INDIVIDUAL COMMITTEES MAY BE IMPROPERLY APPRECIATED OR CONTROLLED IN THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT WORK FOSTERED BY THE OTHER HRB COMMITTEES CONCERNED WITH CONSTRUCTION, OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE. ACCORDINGLY, WHAT IS PRESENTED IS 1) A SURVEY ON SHOULDER DESIGN AND OPERATION PRACTICES, 2) DESIRABLE CIRTERIA FOR THE GEOMETRIC DESIGN AND OPERATION OF SHOULDERS, 3) SHOULDER STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS, 4) SHOULDER MAINTENANCE CONSIDERATIONS AND 5) SHOULDER PRACTICES AND PERFORMANCE IN TWO STATES. /AUTHOR/
