Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dust Preventives and Road Binders The object of this book is primarily to furnish road engineers with a working knowledge of the Characteristic properties of dust preventives and road binders now in use, and to develop certain fundamental principles relative to their selection and application. During the past few years there has been a rapidly growing de mand for such information, which has so far been met'in a not altogether satisfactory manner. The subject of dust prevention and road preservation is at present in a transitional state, and there is unquestionably much yet to be learned regarding the effect of certain properties of road binders upon the results obtained in practice. It is hoped, however, that this work may serve as a basis for further development and that it will prove of some assistance to those who are interested in the use of such materials.
