MOTOR TRUCKS ON HIGHWAYS
Series of Impacts Being Conducted at
Arlington to Determine Impact
on Roads.
(Prepared by tho Unltod States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
To determine the destructive effect
of heavily loaded nuto trucks un high
ways and streets, nnd to meet the de
mand for data on tho design uf road
surfaces nnd foundations to withstand
such heavy traffic, n series of experi
ments is being conducted by tho bu
reau of public roads at tho Arlington
cxperlmont farm to dctermlno tho Im
pact of nuto trucks on roads.
The most striking slnglo develop
ment In tho highway field In 1018 wu9
tho tremendous Increase In motor
truck traffic. Flvo years ago heavy
motor trucks were few In number and
limited practically entirely to tho
paved streets of larger cities. Thcso
vehicles now comprise probably 4 to
5 per cent of the grand total of all
motor vehicles nnd aro to bo found
wherever tralllc conditions permit
prolltnblo use. But very few roads
were designed to carry nny largo vol
iimo of this class of tralllc. Conse
quently, tho cost of ndequato main
tenance was Increased greatly during
the yenr. In many places tho dnmago
due to tho Incessant pounding of thoso
fast nnd heavy vehicles was so great
its to require complete reconstruction.
ADVICE ON BUILDING ROADS

method of building nnd maintaining
roads for the varying conditions exist

this investigational work has been
done by the highways division of tho
United Stutcs department of agricul

highways commissions. No rond build
