Abstract: This study looks at the empirical relationship between the presence of large dams and the potential alteration in extreme precipitation patterns in their vicinity. The global analysis indicates that extreme precipitation ...

Abstract: This note presents an inexpensive method of reducing the cell-fluid leakage in a long-duration consolidation/permeability test in a triaxial cell. It involves two membranes sealed with hose clamps over two O-rings and ...

Abstract: Two underground concrete box culverts were installed below ground on Plantation Drive in the City of Benbrook, Texas, in 1991. The culverts consisted of precast segments with case-in-place (CIP) collars/bends. The concrete ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study that was conducted to understand the impacts of aging and rejuvenation on fundamental properties of asphalt binders. A Performance Grade (PG) 64-22 binder was aged to simulate the ...

Abstract: The use of resistivity imaging (RI) in subsurface investigation has increased in recent years. RI is a non-destructive method and provides a continuous image of the subsurface. However, only qualitative evaluation of the ...
