Aggiungi al carrelloHardback. Condizione: Good. Asphaltic Concrete (1962) by G.P. Jackson and D. Brien Shell International Petroleum | ISBN: none | Condition: Good Sold by Crappy Old Books Pour yourself a stiff cup of black coffee and prepare to enter the glamorous, fast-paced world of? asphalt. Yes, Asphaltic Concrete (1962) , that shimmering monu…ment to mid-century modernity, where Shell engineers G.P. Jackson and D. Brien take you on a wild ride through the thrilling chemistry of road surfaces. Forget your James Bond novels ? this is bitumen, stirred not shaken . Here, in all its monochrome glory, lies the authoritative text for those who look at a motorway and think, ?Now that?s engineering.? Inside, you?ll find detailed discussions of aggregate grading, binder viscosity, and the delicate art of preventing Britain from sliding into the sea during a light drizzle. It?s the kind of book where every paragraph smells faintly of oil, optimism, and men called Reg with pencils behind their ears. Condition: Good ? meaning it?s survived sixty-odd years of shelf life, possibly in a Shell research office or the back room of an unventilated lab. The spine may bear the subtle warping of time and the ghostly fingerprint of industry, but the pages remain proudly intact ? just like the M1. Expect the gentle patina of use, a whisper of paraffin aroma, and all the gravitas of a book that once defined ?modern road science.? Perfect for civil engineers, retro technocrats, or anyone who finds romance in viscosity charts. Place it on your coffee table to impress guests with your command of aggregate composition ? or simply to make them wonder what kind of person owns a 1962 manual on asphalt. Another unsung masterpiece from Crappy Old Books , where we believe every dusty tome deserves its second chance ? even those about sticky black stuff that keeps your commute from turning into a field trip.
