Maintaining complete, comprehensive, detailing records of every process or deliverable items is fundamentally essential to the efficient control of the work, to the achievement of all Company and Project objectives and to the management of the potential risks and opportunities that could be encountered during the prosecution of the work. Any company is taking a great risk if the Inspector, Supervisor or Leadsmen is unable to recognize that one of the greatest problems about the daily field report is that the information in them will not be needed if there is not a problem. However, when and if a problem arises the information logged on the Daily Field Report will be of great importance when dealing with the problem. This field book is a tested methodology that if used well and daily will provide consistent information to the user, but also to upper management. This field book aggregates procedures used by roadwork experts and it has been designed considering the fact that personnel on site is not always well versed on writing documents. This is a step by step collection of information that will document the minimum data required to create a useful construction daily report.

Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.
