REPORT OF AGGREGATE AVAILABILITY SURVEY IN CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES.

Abstract

The study has encompassed the major sources of aggregates for construction purposes in the Continental United States. In the accumulation of the data, information was obtained from all known available sources including the major construction agencies of the Federal Government, State Highway Departments, and recently published compilations such as 'Pit an Quarry Handbook'. The data are presented separately for each State, and is believed sufficiently complete at this time to be of considerable value as a reference for current general construction, as well as a guide for airfield pavement construction, especially when considering special pavements resistant to heat and blast of jet and rocket motor exhausts.
