Design and Construction of Cut and Cover Road Tunnels
Design and Construction of Cut and Cover Road Tunnels The increased use of underground space for transportation systems and the increasing complexity and constraints of constructing and maintaining above ground transportation infrastructure has created a need for improved understanding of tunnel engineering and tunnel construction methods. This course presents the construction methodology and excavation support…
Slope Stability
Slope Stability This course provides guidance for analyzing the static stability of slopes of earth and rock-fill dams, slopes of other types of embankments, excavated slopes, and natural slopes in soil and soft rock. Methods for analysis of slope stability are described and are illustrated by examples in the appendices. Topics include design considerations, design…
Soil Stabilization for Pavements
Soil Stabilization for Pavements This course provides guidance for the design and improvement of the structural quality and workability of soils used for base courses, subbase courses, select materials, and subgrades for pavements construction. The training material is from the US Army Corps of Engineers document “Soil Stabilization for Pavements Mobilization Construction”. Criteria and standards…
Corrosion of Soil Reinforcements
Corrosion of Soil Reinforcements Engineers and specialty material suppliers have been designing reinforced soil structures for the past 35 years. During the last decade significant improvements have been made to the design methods and in the understanding of factors affecting the durability of the soil reinforcements. This work is becoming even more important now that…
