The 2009 AASHTO Transportation Glossary is an update and revision of the 1983 Transportation Glossary and the 1998 Transportation Glossary, which was unpublished. The largest additions in terminology were in bridge and drainage subjects. The new glossary also includes lists of organizational acronyms, abbreviations, and other glossary references. Terms and definitions in this glossary were taken from an unpublished 1998 AASHTO Glossary and supplemented with definitions listed in AASHTO publications issued after 1998. Several additional sources were also referenced, including the Highway Capacity Manual, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Code of Federal Regulations - Title 23, an FHWA list of roundabout terminology, and the Transportation Research Thesaurus. Glossary terms are listed in alphabetical order regardless of transportation mode. However, the glossary also includes two indexes - Subject Area and Keyword - which provide cross references for the user.

This 13th Edition of the AASHTO Provisional Standards contains a complete set of 41 provisional materials specifications and test methods. All Provisional Standards are approved for publication by the AASHTO Highway Subcommittee on Materials. Provisional Standards are standards which have been adopted by the Highway Subcommittee on Materials on a temporary basis for a maximum of eight years. A chronology of the year-to-year status of the Provisional Standards during the past eight years is included. At any time during the eight-year period, the Subcommittee can ballot to convert a Provisional Standard into a Full Standard. The Subcommittee, so far, has converted 58 Provisional Standards into Full Standards. These Standards are now regularly published in the AASHTO Standard Specifications for Transportation Materials and Methods of Sampling and Testing.

The objective of the 2nd Edition of these guidelines is to improve the quality of the traffic information that supports decisions at all levels of the transportation profession. Traffic data programs are essential for State Departments of Transportation to accomplish their mission of ensuring safety and mobility to the traveling public. Traffic data supports capital investment programs and budgets, as well as effective design and maintenance programs. This document is a reference for professional traffic monitoring and establishes recommended national traffic monitoring practices that reflect current practice and advances made in the past several years. Since publication of the 1st Edition of the guidelines in 1992, many advances have been made in traffic monitoring procedures, and updated editions of the TMG were published in 1994 and 2001. The guidebook is intended for use by state and local transportation agencies, as well as others involved in traffic data programs.

The purpose of this manual is to describe the various procedures for subsurface investigation applicable to the transportation field. An outline of a sequence of operations for conducting an investigation is presented. Data obtained at each operational step should be interpreted and the findings applied to optimize each successive work step. These geotechnical data should be considered as influential or even critical in all planning, design and construction stages of the project.

I I This book is intended to guide practicing structural engineers into more profitable routine designs with the AISC Load and Resistance Factor Design Specification (LRFD) for structural steel buildings. LRFD is a method of proportioning steel structures so that no applica ble limit state is exceeded when the structure is subjected to all appro priate factored load combinations. Strength limit states are related to safety, and concern maximum load carrying capacity, Serviceability limit states are related to performance under service load conditions such as deflections. The term "resistance" includes both strength states and serviceability limit states. LRFD is a new approach to the design of structural steel for buildings. It involves explicit consideration of limit states, multiple load factors and resistance factors, and implicit probabilistic determination of relia bility. The type of factoring used by LRFD differs from the allowable stress design of Chapters A through M of the 1989 Ninth Edition of the AISC Specifications for Allowable Stress Design, where only the resistance is divided by a factor of safety to obtain an allowable stress, and from the plastic design provisions of Chapter N, where the loads are multi plied by a common load factor of 1.7 for gravity loads and 1.3 for gravity loads acting with wind or seismic loads. LRFD offers the structural engineer greater flexibility, rationality, and economy than the previous 1989 Ninth Edition of the AISC Specifications for Allowable Stress Design.

This volume strives to give complete information about the main aspect of the stability behaviour of steel structures and their members. In following this objective, the volume presents a complete scientific background (profiting from the fact that the authors of the individual parts of the publication have personally been very active in the corresponding field of research for an extended period of time now), but also establishes recommendations, procedures and formulae for practical design. The significance of the volume may be seen in its challenging current concepts of stability analysis, encouraging progress in the field and thereby establishing an advanced basis for more reliable and economical design.
