This manual provides guidance for the selection, design, installation, operation, and maintenance of cathodic protection systems for navigation lock gates and other civil works hydraulic structures. The primary corrosion control method for civil works hydraulic structures is a protective coating system, most often paint. Where the paint system and structure are submerged in water, a combination of the anodic and cathodic properties of material...

The Corps of Engineers played an important part in winning World War II. Its work included building and repairing roads, bridges, and airfields, laying and clearing minefields, establishing and destroying obstacles, constructing training camps and other support facilities, building the Pentagon, and providing facilities for the development of the atomic bomb. In addition to their construction work, engineers engaged in combat with the enemy in...

This manual covers the various types of auxiliary power generating systems used on military installations. It provides data for the major components of these generating systems, such as, prime movers, generators, and switchgear. It includes operation of the auxiliary generating system components and the routine maintenance which should be performed on these components. It also describes the functional relationship of these components and the s...

Soldier physical readiness is acquired through the challenge of a precise, progressive, and integrated physical training program. A well-conceived plan of military physical readiness training must be an integral part of every unit training program. This field manual prescribes doctrine for the execution of the Army Physical Readiness Training System. Profusely illustrated.

Published in 2010, this work provides an historic context for military training lands, written to satisfy a part of Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966 as amended. Cultural resources personnel at the installation level and their contractors will use this historic context to determine whether military training resources are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and whether an adverse effe...

Medical terminology is the professional language of those who are directly or indirectly engaged in the art of healing. You will need to know medical terms in order to read a medical record, to complete forms, to decipher a physician's handwriting, and to communicate with others in the hospital in a professional manner.At first, the medical terms may seem strange and bewildering to you and appear to be extremely difficult to learn. Fortunately...

The purpose of this manual is to present basic principles used in the design and construction of earth levees. The term levee as used herein is defined as an embankment whose primary purpose is to furnish flood protection from seasonal high water and which is therefore subject to water loading for periods of only a few days or weeks a year. Embankments that are subject to water loading for prolonged periods (longer than normal flood protection...

This manual provides current guidance and engineering procedures for the solution of tidal hydraulics problems. The subjects covered in this manual range from the fundamentals of estuarine engineering to specific problem solving techniques, including environmental considerations, to a summary of "lessons learned" from completed projects. The problem solving portion of the manual serves as a means of transferring the technical knowledge obtaine...

This manual describes available or preferred procedures or concepts of drilling and blasting conducted during rock excavation, in order to aid design and construction personnel in related matters. The manual is designed principally for the use of geologists and engineers who are given responsibilities in drilling and blasting projects. Such responsibilities may come either in the design or the construction phase.Contents:IntroductionMechanics ...

The primary purpose of this manual is to provide practical guidance for removal of underground storage tanks. The manual addresses site evaluation, monitoring, testing, removal, and site restoration. A secondary purpose is to provide information relative to remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater.

The purpose of this book is to provide guidance on ground improvement for civil works and military programs projects. It contains an up-to-date overview of ground improvement techniques and related considerations. It addresses general evaluation of site and soil conditions, selection of improvement methods, preliminary cost estimating, design, construction, and performance evaluation for ground improvement. This book should be used as a resour...

The manual provides a general overview of groundwater principles. Practical discussions are provided for planning groundwater investigations and modeling of groundwater flow. Additionally, a section on surface water and groundwater interaction is included. To enhance understanding of concepts, examples are provided throughout the manual.This manual initially presents an overview of the occurrence and movement of groundwater. Procedures for pla...

The purpose of this manual is to provide technical criteria and guidance for the planning and design of concrete gravity dams for civil works projects. This manual presents analysis and design guidance for concrete gravity dams. Conventional concrete and roller compacted concrete are both addressed. Curved gravity dams designed for arch action and other types of concrete gravity dams are not covered in this manual.Basically, gravity dams are s...

This design guide provides guidance for the basic design, installation and operation of ground water extraction and ground water injection systems for the cleanup of contaminated ground water, exclusive of any treatment systems. General guidance on ground water extraction already exists. The intent of this design guide is to document lessons learned from experience and to provide a systematic approach to the installation, operation and trouble...

All hydraulic projects subjected to freezing temperatures have ice problems, such as: ice buildup on lock walls, hydropower intakes, and lock approaches, ice accumulation in navigation channels, ice passage over spillways that scours the downstream channels, and ice damage to shore structures and shorelines, etc. Therefore, ice control measures should be considered for both new and existing projects to improve operations and safety in cold reg...
