Synopsis
In 1985, the Geological Society published Aggregates as the first volume in its Engineering Geology Special Publication Series. It met with immediate acclaim, being awarded the Brewis Trophy by SAGA in 1986. In 1989, the working party whose work had resulted in the publication of Aggregates was reconvened to revise, update and extend their report. Each chapter was reviewed by independent referees. This second and greatly improved edition, published in 1993 and reprinted in 1998, represented the distillation of a vast body of knowledge and experience held not only by the members of the working party, but also by many international experts, scientists and engineers who contributed as reviewers, referees and corresponding authors. Owing to continued demand for this unique reference book, a group of aggregate specialists was convened in 1999 in order thoroughly to review and update Aggregates for this third edition.
