County Subdivision Control: Model Ordinance With Discussion, William Joseph Head

Indiana Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) Publications

The purpose of this manual is to impress upon the reader the urgent need for sound planning and to show what tools are available to facilitate the job of planning and (2) to provide a rough framework, a "model subdivision ordinance," around which a county can build a subdivision ordinance tailored to its particular needs and circumstances.

It must be emphasized that the values appearing in this manual are only typical minimal values. The model ordinance is quite general—any county wishing to adopt this ordinance would be obliged to initiate a study to determine to what extent the model ordinance …

Program Evaluation And Review Technique, Anthony Immaculate Agresta

Theses

The problem of planning, controling and evaluating complex projects both engineering and non-engineering has existed as long as the projects themselves. In the past the approach of management to this problem has been one which was based heavily on the use of historical information. There have been very few attempts to predict and control the occurrence of the objective event of these projects.

This thesis deals with a review of this problem and a new approach to the planning, control, and evaluation of these complex projects. This new approach is the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) which was developed …

Extraction Of Technical Grade Lactic Acid With N-Butyl Alcohol, Joel Howard Kaplan

Theses

A possible step in a proposed industrial method for purifying and concentrating technical grade (44 per cent) lactic acid was investigated. The proposed method is the extraction of lactic acid from the crude grade by n-butyl alcohol, esterification of the extract by n-butyl alcohol and hydrolysis of the resultant purified ester to pure lactic acid. The extraction of lactic acid by n-butyl alcohol from the crude grade was the topic considered in this paper.

The extraction process was carried out at temperatures of 10.2°C, 25.0°C, 40.0°C and 60.00C using both U. S. P. lactic acid (85 per cent) and technical …

A Study Of Temperature Measurement Precision In Debye-Scherrer Specimens During High Temperature X-Ray Diffraction Measurement Of Thermal Expansion, Roy Glenn Merryman

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

The literature cited covers a comprehensive survey on temperature measurement methods in thermal expansion determination utilizing X-ray diffraction from 1921 through 1961 and a compilation of all published data on the thermal expansion of gold from 1916 through 1960 and magnesium oxide from 1906 through 1961. References for comparison of the MgO results with those of the Bureau of Mines Interlaboratory Program of Thermal Expansion Measurements on MgO are also presented. The literature on temperature measurement was limited to those articles featuring camera design or temperature conditions, since to examine publications on all phases of thermal expansion was found to …

The Kentucky Department Of Highway’S Scholarship Program, D. V. Terrell

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The Kentucky Department of Highways was organized in 1912, at that time the field of highway engineering was new, little was actually known about the scientific process of building roads, there were no highway engineers as such. The civil engineer because of his experience in the construction of railroads and public works was to become the highway engineer in the future. As road building began to be an important fact, most schools added courses in highway construction to the already over-crowded field of civil engineering, and highway engineering today is considered on of the major branches of the broad field …

Jurisdictional Disputes Within The Construction Industry, Dominick Joseph Magarelli

Theses

Work assignment disputes, known as jurisdictional disputes are common in the construction industry. They are not only costly but annoying as well, The construction industry has always been plagued with this type of dispute because each of its many craft unions regards certain types of work as a proprietary right. They jealously guard against any encroachment of their area of activity by other unions. Sometimes lines of demarcation between the various jurisdictions are not clear. Also, the development of new products and methods often brings with it clashes between unions each of whom claim exclusive right to the work assignment. …

Packed Bed Heat Transfer, Anthony William Sposaro

Theses

The use of various published correlations to determine apparent thermal conductivities was found to give results of differing ma; magnitudes. For this reason when these values were utilized in the theoretical relationships proposed by McAdams:

tw-t2/tw-t1 = 0.692e^-23.14X + 0.1312e^-121.9X + 0.0535e^-299.6X

in which X is defined as

X = (KaL/CpGoD²t)

For packed bed systems the results were found to be inconsistent.

In this investigation a dimensionless equation:

Ka/kg = 0.00105 (DpGo/εpμ)^1.32

has been developed which permits the prediction of apparent thermal conductivities to air flowing through a 1 inch tube picked with glass …

The Application Of Nuclear Techniques To The Measurement Of Moisture And Density Of Highway Construction Materials, Robert C. Deen, J. D. Shackelford

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

In recent years much attention has been directed toward the application of neutron and gamma ray techniques to soil moisture and density measurements. This application of radiological measurements of these characteristics of materials of highway construction, of course, is of great interest to the highway industry since the performance of the total pavement system is highly dependent upon the condition of the embankment, subgrade, and base components of this system. An important measure of the state of condition of unconsolidated earth materials is their unit weights and moisture contents. The highway engineer undoubtedly would welcome any method or technique which …

Handbook Of Facts And Figures On Indiana County Roads—Including Directory Of Indiana County Highway Departments, Jean E. Hittle

Indiana Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) Publications

This handbook will assist county road officials in the planning of county road operations. The data and information included in this handbook are either statistical or public information which are already available from the official sources, but which needed to be brought together for convenient distribution and use.

A Study Of Sprinkler Uniformity Evaluation Methods, Baha Dabbous

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The use of water in homes, on farms, by factories, and for recreational purposes has been increasing rapidly. Water use has doubled in the last three decades. By 1980, water use is expected to be double the current use. In arid and semi-arid regions, the practice of successful profit-yielding agriculture often depends on irrigation. Irrigation is, in turn, dependent upon a water supply which is limited. The highest possible efficiency should be maintained if maximum utilization of the available water resources for irrigation is desired. Sprinkler irrigation allows, among other things, high water application efficiencies with good distribution uniformities.

Pavement Roughness Studies (A Progress Report), Rolands L. Rizenbergs

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Road roughness testing in Kentucky was first reported in 1949 (1). At that time, emphasis was placed on localized irregularities in pavement profiles detectable by a roller-type straight edge. The experience gained then pointed to the necessity for making a fast, continuous recording of characteristics of the road which would be more closely related to riding quality. Subsequent progress reports (2)(3) dealing with the development of triaxial acceleration as applied to the evaluation of pavement riding qualities emphasized riding comfort or discomfort. The accelerations monitored then were evaluated in terms of g's per seconds or "jerk", which is considered by …

Engineering Properties For Soil Series Mapped In Kentucky, Robert C. Deen

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Soil maps, and particularly engineering soil maps, are proving to be desirable in the planning and design stage of many types of structures and land developments. Problems associated with foundations, drainage and soil behavior may be recognized at a very early stage during the preliminary location and site selection through the use of adequate soil maps.
