amino acid residue volumes

Hello. I was wondering if anyone could direct me to a good resource for info
about the physical volume that the different amino acids fill. I have heard 
this property called the "residue volume". I am especially interested in the 
van der waals radius of the different side chains. I have looked in "typical"
sources such as the "Handbook of Chemistry and Physics" as well as the 
"Handbook of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology" but have been unsuccessful.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
