Standard Plans for Public Works Construction, 2009 Edition

This visual reference, also updated and revised to comply with the Federal regulations for metric documentation, is the graphic companion to the "Greenbook."Hundreds of detailed drawings, cross sections, design criteria, and dimensions graphically depict all aspects of public works construction. Every dimension is listed in both feet/inches and metric equivalents. From street improvement and sewers and sanitation, to street lighting, traffic signals, retaining walls, landscaping and irrigation systems - now all in standard English units.

It also features cross-sections that clearly illustrate the latest approved techniques, and exhaustive notes covering every detail - with clearly spelled out answers to any question you might have. Most importantly, it contains all the latest changes that have been researched and approved by the 25-member "Greenbook" committee, which includes representatives from the American Public Works Association , the Associated General Contractors of California, the Engineering Contractors Association, and the Southern California Contractors Association. This book, along with the "Greenbook," sets the standard for quality and uniformity in public works construction.
