Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive examination of wood block paving, a road surface methodology with a fascinating history dating back centuries. The author traces the evolution of wood block paving from its humble beginnings to its widespread use in the late 19th and early 20th centur…ies. The book explores the technical aspects of wood block paving, including the different types of wood used, the methods of treatment, and the techniques for laying and maintaining the blocks. It also discusses the historical context of wood block paving, including its popularity in major cities during the era of horse-drawn vehicles and its gradual decline with the advent of automobiles. The thematic depth of the book lies in its exploration of the social, economic, and technological factors that influenced the development and use of wood block paving. The author argues that wood block paving was not simply a functional road surface but also a reflection of the values and priorities of the societies that employed it. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into a neglected aspect of urban infrastructure and provides a deeper understanding of the historical interplay between technology, society, and the built environment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
