I am currently designing the anticipated scour at a beach front. The scope is to protect the adjacent roadway embankment from scouring away with the use of either sheeting or armoured rip rap. In order to do the structural or geotechnical analysis, i would have to estimate the scour based on...

Percolation vs Permeability testing. When introducing a head of water, say 9 feet (8.6 feet cased) to a hole with no ground water present, and 4" of gravel at the bottom and them continued to run a percolation test with everthing that is required, i.e the 4 hours of saturation and timing the...

I RECENTLY RECEIVED A PAVEMENT DESIGN COMMENT FROM THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION WITH REGARDS TO THE DESIGN LIFE OF PAVEMENT STRUCTURES. QUOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THE NEW PAVEMENT FOR 30 TO 50 YEAR RANGE DESIGN LIFE TO ACCOMODATE THE 75 YEAR LIFE OF THE BRIDGE STRUCTURE. THE...

Can anyone give me a good publication on the design of a double sheet pile cofferdam wall. ACOE, FHWA, etc.

I beg to differ in this instance where the economy is run-short.... Government funding is not what it used to be and in-care of that fact the engineering field should try to economize on spendings so that work can progress in the development of whichever state one practices in.. A Census was...

I have recently found a PDF file from the NJDOT website which concentrates on the ROADWAY USER COSTS... But... The ROADWAY USER DELAY COST definition kind of fades as the material goes on.... But you people are correct on saying that the number does not really play a roll within a design...

Does Anyone out there have an idea on the Life Cycle Cost Roadway User DELAY costs analysis for pavement design. I have no idea what the format is going to look like without a detailed raodway traffic analysis!!! I have the FHWA LCCA handbook and it mentions a Roadway User Delay Cost but then...

Would anyone know of a formulae that deals with the embedment of a drilled pier and the TORSIONAL MOMENTS. I currently have transverse loads, longitudinal and transverse moments, and torsional moments from a structural engineer, BUT from a geotechnical state of mind, I need to verify that the...
