"Design and Derivation Units" according to A Customer. I own a copy of this item. It is a great book that is very helpful in the design of roads and in the assessment of existing road networks. The version I own has all design calculations and derivations in Imperial Units. It is helpful to have a conversion table at the beginning. But an SI Unit version would have been more appropriate for engineers more conversant with SI units than Imperials units. Seeing the right figures gives a better feel and appreciation of the calculations. I would request an SI Unit version of this textbook. Thank you. A Customer said Need More Details of the Book. I would be very pleased if you could provide me the Tables of Contents of this book. Thanks.Jason Fang
