Coal Mine Road Technology: An Assessment of References and Annotated Bibliography, January 1983

摘要

The report identifies the sources of information regarding specific aspects of the design, construction, maintenance, and reclamation of coal mine roads (haul or access roads) in accordance with Public Law 95-87. Its purpose is to assist persons in the design, construction, and maintenance of coal mine roads by providing a reference list to aid individuals in developing their own libraries regarding various aspects of roads. The report is the result of an intensive literature search (including use of computerized information retrieval systems as well as published bibliographies). Guidelines and requirements for design, construction, and maintenance of coal mine roads have been developed by the Office of Surface Mining as well as state regulatory authorities. The information provides operating standards or design guidelines with limited information regarding the actual design process.
