FHWA Study of South African Pavement and Other Highway Technologies andPractices. International Technology. FHWA's Scanning Program

摘要

From May 13 to 17, 1996, FHWA sponsored a scanning tour to observe, disucss, anddocument information about South Africa's successful practices in concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, and other highway-related technologies. The informatin was to be disseminated to the U.S. transportation, engineering, and contracting communities. In simple terms, the purpose of the scanning tour was to observe what the South Africans are doing well with their highways, learn from them, and inform the U.S. highway community. In addition, efforts were made to introduce and facilitate some links between the U.S. and South African private sectors as a means of fostering future cooperation and exhcnage.
