A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Use of bitumen discussed, with particular reference to Australia, where American methods may not necessarily be economical; problem is to waterproof structure, resist wear and internal attrition, and prevent corrugation; intensive traffic develops pot holes in macadam; choice of type and grade of bitumen; tabular data on variation in qualities and properties. Abstract of paper read before Inst. of Engrs. of Australia. See Engineering Index 1928, p. 1612.
