Springer Water in Road Structures: Movement, Drainage & Effects

This professional text provides a comprehensive look at the movement and effects of water within road pavements and embankments. Developed as the direct result of the COST 351, WATMOVE project, this volume offers insights gathered by a pan-European team of experts. The research was initiated through a proposal led by Kent Gustafson of the Swedish Road and Traffic Institute (VTI) to the European programme on Co-operation in Science and Technology (COST). As part of the Geotechnical, Geological and Earthquake Engineering series, this book serves as an essential resource for those studying water movements in infrastructure. It covers the scientific findings from the WATMOVE study, which focused on how water interacts with road structures. This book is a valuable addition to any technical library focused on earth sciences and higher education in engineering fields.
