Category : Retaining walls
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
UPDATED AND EXPANDED NEW 11TH EDITION. Design guide for earth retaining structures covers nearly every type of earth retaining structure: cantilevered, counterfort, restrained (basement walls), gravity, segmental, sheet pile, soldier pile, and others. Current building code requirements are referenced throughout. Topics include types of retaining structures, basic soil mechanics, design of concrete and masonry walls, lateral earth pressures, seismic design, surcharges, pile and pier foundations, Gabion walls and swimming pool walls.

Design of Roadside Barrier Systems Placed on MSE Retaining Walls
Author: Roger P. BlighPublisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 0309154995
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 663: Design of Roadside Barrier Systems Placed on MSE Retaining Walls explores a design procedure for roadside barrier systems mounted on the edge of a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall. The procedures were developed following American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Load and Resistant Factor Design (LRFD) practices. Appendices A through H to NCHRP Report 663 are available online. Titles of Appendices A through H are as follows: Appendix A: Design of MSE Wall; Appendix B: State-of-Practice Survey; Appendix C: Detailed Drawing of MSE Wall for Bogie Test; Appendix D: Bogie Test MSE Wall Construction Procedure; Appendix E: Detailed Drawing of MSE Wall for TL-3 Test; Appendix F: TL-3 MSE Wall Construction Procedure; Appendix G: Crash Test Vehicle Properties and Information; Appendix H: Crash Test Sequential Photographs--
An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Theory and Practice of Wildlife Corridors
Author: Amy D. PropenPublisher: Anthem Press
ISBN: 1785279203
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Theory and Practice of Wildlife Corridors charts some best practices and makes some new theoretical contributions related to the design and creation of wildlife corridors in Anthropocene times. While the book will provide much of the knowledge necessary for a general and credible understanding of connectivity projects, it will also make a unique theoretical contribution to current knowledge about wildlife corridors by arguing that theories about compassion, empathy, and traditional ecological knowledge should inform wildlife corridor projects.

Seismic Analysis and Design of Retaining Walls, Buried Structures, Slopes, and Embankments
Author: Donald G. AndersonPublisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 0309117658
Category : Earthquake resistant design
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
This report explores analytical and design methods for the seismic design of retaining walls, buried structures, slopes, and embankments. The Final Report is organized into two volumes. NCHRP Report 611 is Volume 1 of this study. Volume 2, which is only available online, presents the proposed specifications, commentaries, and example problems for the retaining walls, slopes and embankments, and buried structures.
Earth Pressure and Earth-Retaining Structures, Second Edition
Author: Chris R.I. ClaytonPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 075140067X
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
Retaining structures form an important component of many civil engineering and geotechnical engineering projects. Careful design and construction of these structures is essential for safety and longevity. This new edition provides significantly more support for non-specialists, background to uncertainty of parameters and partial factor issues that underpin recent codes (e.g. Eurocode 7), and comprehensive coverage of the principles of the geotechnical design of gravity walls, embedded walls and composite structures. It is written for practising geotechnical, civil and structural engineers; and forms a reference for engineering geologists, geotechnical researchers and undergraduate civil engineering students.
