The three post-mounted delineator systems currently used in the state of Virginia were tested at five sites for their effectiveness in controlling run-off-the-road accidents. The changes in speed and lateral placement noted with the systems in place we-re taken as drivers' responses to the systems. The study showed that drivers react most favorably

This study is an attempt to determine from laboratory tests the shrink or swell characteristics of excavated pedological soils. Twenty-six benchmark soils of various particle size classes were selected for study. It was found that sandy loam soils shrink the most. They shrink about 14 percent. Clay soils may not shrink at all. Standard Proctor dens
