Steel Deck Institute Diaphragm Design Manual First Edition, Larry D. Luttrell Jan 1981

Steel Deck Institute Diaphragm Design Manual First Edition, Larry D. Luttrell

Steel Deck Institute (SDI) Specifications and Manuals (1939 - present)

The Major Units Laboratory at West Virginia University has been involved in full-scale diaphragm studies for the past fifteen years. The work has covered tests on a wide range of deck panel types, metal building wall systems, panels with insulating concrete fill, and plywood assemblies, all used as diaphragms, and under static, cyclic, and dynamic loading. Connection performance, critical to diaphragm behavior, has been evaluated through an extensive test program covering arc-spot (puddle) welds, different types of screws, and power driven pins. These have established fastener strength limits and have been especially important for defining fastener flexibility factors.

Fire Protection Through Modern Day Building Codes, D. F. Boring, James C. Spence, Walter G. Wells Jan 1981

Fire Protection Through Modern Day Building Codes, D. F. Boring, James C. Spence, Walter G. Wells

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

In this edition, fire protection regulations are not included and requirements of model codes and recommendations of code writing organizations are cited in the text. Much progress has been made in building construction techniques and in material development since the publication of the First Edition in 1944. While this Fifth Edition reflects that progress, it adheres to its original purpose to help develop construction standards for safeguarding life and property from fire.

Missouri Dam Safety Inspection Reports

This report is prepared under guidance contained in Department of the Army, Office of the Chief of Engineers, Recommended Guidelines For Safety Inspection Of Dams, for a Phase I investigation. The purpose of a Phase I investigation is to identify expeditiously those dams which may pose hazards to human life or property. The assessment of the general conditions of the dam is based upon available data and visual inspections. Detailed investigations and analyses involving topographic mapping, subsurface Investigations, testing and detailed computational evaluations are beyond the scope of a Phase I investigation; however, the investigation is intended to identify any …

Aquatic Habitat Inventory Of The Missouri River From Gavins Point Dam To Ponca State Park, Nebraska, James C. Schmulbach, Jeffrey J. Schuckman, Eric A. Nelson Jan 1981

Aquatic Habitat Inventory Of The Missouri River From Gavins Point Dam To Ponca State Park, Nebraska, James C. Schmulbach, Jeffrey J. Schuckman, Eric A. Nelson

United States Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District

One of the few reaches of the Missouri River which remains in a relatively natural free-flowing state is a 93 km segment extending from Gavins Point Dam to Ponca State Park, NB. This reach of the river was designated as a National Recreational River (P.L.95-625, Sect. 707, 1978) because the natural and cultural values of this section were considered worthy of preservation. Early in 1979, the Secretary of the Interior designated the Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service (HCRS) as the agency responsible for developing a management plan for the Missouri Recreation River. The HCRS teamed with the U.S. Army Corps …


Missouri National Recreational River: Native American Cultural Resources, John Ludwickson, Donald Blakeslee, John O'Shea Jan 1981

Missouri National Recreational River: Native American Cultural Resources, John Ludwickson, Donald Blakeslee, John O'Shea

United States Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District

An inventory of known and identifiable cultural resources referrable to Native American populations was undertaken for a corridor along the new Missouri National Recreational River, roughly from Gavin's Foint Dam to Ponca, Nebraska. These resources included archaeological sites and collections, ethnographic and ethnohistorical data and relevant environmental background information. Using these data the Native American occupation of the Missouri National Recreational River area was synthesized into a regional overview which stresses culture-historical developments and changing adaptations to the natural environment. Problems for continuing research utilizing existing archaeological collections were developed, and recommendations for continued field work to fill in gaps …


Probable Causes Of Cracking In A Series Of Reinforced Concrete Box Girder Bridges, Steven Milton Bjordahl Jan 1981

Probable Causes Of Cracking In A Series Of Reinforced Concrete Box Girder Bridges, Steven Milton Bjordahl

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is the result of a study undertaken at the request of the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) to determine the probable cause of a specific type of cracking that was observed in a series of reinforced concrete box girder bridges. The cracking consists of horizontal cracks through the end diaphragms of the girder and horizontal cracking over the interior bents. Typical crack patterns obtained from information supplied by the SDDOT are shown in Figure 1.


Phase 1 Inspection Report: National Dam Safety Program. Upper Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin. Lake Bono Del Dam, Jefferson County, Missouri, Horner & Shifrin, Inc., St. Louis, Missouri Jan 1981

Phase 1 Inspection Report: National Dam Safety Program. Upper Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin. Lake Bono Del Dam, Jefferson County, Missouri, Horner & Shifrin, Inc., St. Louis, Missouri

Missouri Dam Safety Inspection Reports

This report presents the results of field inspection and evaluation of the Lake Bono Del Dam (MO 30434):

It was prepared under the National Program of Inspection of Non-Federal Dams.

This dam has been classified as unsafe, non-emergency by the St. Louis District as a result of the application of the following criteria:

1) Spillway will not pass 50 percent of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping the dam.

2) Overtopping of the dam could result in failure of the dam.

3) Dam failure significantly increases the hazard to loss of life downstream.

A Laboratory Evaluation Of Leachate From The Jim Bridger Power Plant Scrubber Wastes, V. Dean Adams, Mary E. Pitts, Megan J. Dyer Jan 1981

A Laboratory Evaluation Of Leachate From The Jim Bridger Power Plant Scrubber Wastes, V. Dean Adams, Mary E. Pitts, Megan J. Dyer

Reports

Introduction: Scrubber wastes obtained in an affort to limit air pollution generated by coal-fired pwoer plants may contribute to another possible sources of pollution. To date, scrubber wastse have been in a liquid phase which causes disposal problems partially due to the liquid characteristics. The use of solid scrubber wastes and the land deposition of such wastes is proposed. The feasibility of solid scrubber wastes disposal in landfills is under question. The primary area of concern is the effect that water percolation through such wastes would have on groundwater quality parameters. Contamination could result either as precipitation travels downward through …
