Compaction Grouting Consensus Guide

Compaction Grouting Consensus Guide (ASCE/G-I 53-10)

This guide focuses on the practical and engineering aspects of compaction grouting as a technique of ground improvement. Compaction grouting increases the density, strength, and stiffness of the ground through slow, controlled injections of low-mobility grout that compacts the soil as the grout mass expands. The technology can be applied to a wide range of soils, in most cases being used to improve the engineering properties of poorly compacted fills and loose native soils. Compaction grouting can be applied equally well above or below the water table.  

Ultrafine Cement in Pressure Grouting cover

Ultrafine Cement in Pressure Grouting

This books presents the technical and practical information required by engineers to plan and implement grouting programs that are cost effective and technically sound. As a key component of modern grouting programs, ultrafine cement is an ideal solution for geotechnical engineers and construction contractors who are grappling with the challenges of managing costs while developing sites that may be less than ideal. Increasingly, the virtues of ultrafine cement lead engineers and contractors to use it rather than less-expensive portland cements.

History of the Modern Suspension Bridge

/uploadedImages/Books_and_Journals/Books_-_Personify/ASCE_Press_(PAP)/41018(1).jpg

Tadaki Kawada traces the modern suspension bridge from its earliest appearance in Western civilization only 200 years ago to the enormous Akashi Kaikyo and Storebælt bridges completed at the end of the twentieth century.
