A Simplified Method Of Estimating Drilling And Blasting Costs Of A Highway Through-Cut Excavation In Rock, Donald J. Roberts

Masters Theses

"The development of cost estimating methods has been the most neglected phase of highway engineering. Overlooked in particular has been the development of an easily understood and easily applied method of estimating the costs of the drilling and blasting operations involved in a highway through-cut excavation in rock.

This investigation developed such a method by adapting and applying recent developments in the blasting planning field. The study was limited to small diameter blastholes and excavations in lifts of less than thirty feet. Normal efficient construction practices were presumed.

It was found from the investigation that the blast geometry and, subsequently, …

A Study Of Chemical Stabilization Of The Swell Properties Of Putman Soil, Dale E. Dobson

Masters Theses

"The theory of chemical stabilization of a swelling clay was reviewed. The effect of several chemicals on the engineering properties of Putnam soil was investigated using the Atterberg tests. Strength of concentration of chemical additives versus preferred structural orientation of treated Putnam was investigated using sedimentation procedures similar to those used in the hydrometer analysis of fine grained soil sizes. Swell tests were conducted under a static load of 1.25 psi on untreated Putnam, Putnam in combination with sodium carbonate, and Putnam treated with calcium hydroxide. These tests were conducted at varying initial moisture contents and dry densities.

It was …

The Electrochemical Degradation Of Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate., Melvin David Rickard

Masters Theses

"The ever increasing use of nonbiodegradable synthetic detergents, mainly the alkyl benzene sulfonates, has created difficulties in water and wastewater treatment, and in stream pollution. Although considerable attention has been given to this problem, no solution has been developed which can be effectively employed in the abatement of detergent pollution.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the feasibility of the use of direct current electrochemical degradation in the removal of alkyl benzene sulfonates (ABS) from water. The rate and degree of completion of the electrochemical reactions were determined, and the nature of the end products formed was investigated. …

Composite Beams In Building Constructions., Mahendrasinhji M. Jhala

Masters Theses

"The use of composite beams is very common in bridge and. in building construction due to the fact that a savings in material is effected.

The study herein shows a simplified procedure for design of composite beams. A number of design charts for rapid selection of a wide-flange section and the necessary cover plates are presented herein. These charts are based on economic sections of steel beams when used in a simple span, if one knows the approximate depth of the beam, slab thickness, allowable stresses in the steel and concrete and live load moment, it is very easy to …

Circular Arch Analysis, Aylmer Pao-Sheng Cheng

Masters Theses

"This work presents an analysis of a two-hinged circular arch by both the elastic theory and the deflection theory. The basic assumption made in this analysis was that the moment of inertia of the arch rib and the normal force vary as the secant of the angle with respect to the crown. The increase of maximum moment as found by the deflection theory was in the range of 30%"--Abstract, page 2.

The Effect Of A Continuous Low Temperature On The Operation Of Waste Stabilization Lagoons, Ralston Kennedy Dennis

Masters Theses

"This study was undertaken to determine the effect of a continuous low temperature on the operation of a waste stabilization lagoon and to provide information of value to the sewage treatment field.

The investigation was conducted using two experimental lagoons subjected to a continuous illumination of 550 to 600 foot candles emitted by two fluorescent light fixtures. Of these units, the Cold Room Lagoon was maintained at a controlled temperature of 5° C. and the Warm Room Lagoon was operated at room temperature in the range of 16 to 32° C.

Dissolved oxygen and biochemical oxygen demand determinations were the …

The Application Of Preaeration Of Sewage To The Design And Operation Of Waste Stabilization Lagoons, Richard G. Huber

Masters Theses

"The application of preaeration of sewage on the operation and design of waste stabilization lagoons was investigated and its effect on the permissible BOD loadings was determined to provide original and basic information of value to the sewage treatment field.

The investigation was conducted using two 15 gallon aquariums, one of which was designated as the Control Lagoon and the other as the Test Lagoon. These experimental lagoons were subjected to 12 hour diurnal light and dark cycles, provided by means of fluorescent light fixtures.

Raw sewage and aerated raw sewage were fed daily to the Control and Test Lagoons, …
