Abstract:
A vast storehouse of information exists on nearly every subject of concern to highway

administrators and engineers. Much of this information has resulted from both research

and the successful application of solutions to the problems faced by practitioners in their

daily work. Because previously there has been no systematic means for compiling such

useful information and making it available to the entire community, the American Association

of State Highway and Transportation Officials has, through the mechanism of the

National Cooperative Highway Research Program, authorized the Transportation Research

Board to undertake a continuing project to search out and synthesize useful

knowledge from all available sources and to prepare documented reports on current

practices in the subject areas of concern.

This synthesis series reports on various practices, making specific recommendations

where appropriate but without the detailed directions usually found in handbooks or design

manuals. Nonetheless, these documents can serve similar purposes, for each is a

compendium of the best knowledge available on those measures found to be the most

successful in resolving specific problems. The extent to which these reports are useful

will be tempered by the user’s knowledge and experience in the particular problem area.
