Concrete Crack and Partial-Depth Spall Repair

EBook Description: This handbook contains information on current practices (as of September 1998) for the repair of cracks and spalls in concrete pavements as well as on the selection of materials and equipment. This handbook is intended for use as a field handbook for airfield concrete pavement repair for all U.S. Navy, Army, and Air Force facilities; however, the techniques for repair can be used for other concrete pavements as well.

This handbook describes methods and procedures for maintenance and repair of concrete pavements.Since surface failure must be corrected at the source, probable causes are
discussed and repair measures described.

Behaviour of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composite Piles under Vertical Load

Composite piles have been used primarily for fender piles, waterfront barriers, and bearing piles for light structures. In 1998, the Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) undertook a waterfront rehabilitation project known as Hudson River Park. The project is expected to involve replacing up to 100,000 bearing piles for lightweight structures.

Inspection, evaluation and repair of hydraulic steel structures

This manual describes the inspection, evaluation, and repair of hydraulic steel structures,
including preinspection identification of critical locations (such as fracture critical members and various
connections) that require close examination.

Standard Practice for Flexible Pavements

This manual provides guidance for the preparation of drawings and specifications for road and airfield flexible pavements using asphalt cement materials. The term �asphalt� is used herein
instead of bituminous (a generic term for both asphalt and tar materials) because this is the material most widely used in pavement construction.

Geotechnical Engineering Procedures for Foundation Design of Buildings and Structures

GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING PROCEDURES FOR FOUNDATION DESIGN OF BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES.

Planning and Commissioning Wastewater Treatment Plants

This handbook serves as a planning guide for commissioning wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Adequate
planning prevents unnecessary construction delays and costly
modifications and ensures efficient plant operation. Guidance is
presented in general terms; you must integrate site-specific
requirements.

Design, Construction and Operation Small Water System

Design, Construction and Operation Small Water System.

Design of Pile Foundations

This manual provides information, foundation exploration and testing procedures, load test methods, analysis techniques, design criteria and procedures, and construction considerations for the selection, design, and installation of pile foundations.

Design and Construction of Driven Pile Foundation

Pile foundations are used extensively for the support of buildings, bridges, and other structures to safely transfer structural loads to the ground and to avoid excess settlement or lateral movement.
