Comparison of Erosion Control Products Using an ASTM D6459 Rainfall Simulator: Insights and Suggestions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study used a large-scale ASTM International D6459 rainfall simulator to evaluate performance of various types of erosion control products used in construction. Rolled erosion control products (RECPs), hydraulic erosion ...
SILTspread: Performance-Based Approach for the Design and Installation of Silt Fence Sediment Barriers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Construction operations are susceptible to high rates of rainfall-induced soil erosion due to the earth-disturbing nature of land-grading activities. Silt fence sediment barriers are a temporary sediment control practice ...
Hydraulic Performance Evaluation of Wattles Used for Erosion and Sediment Control
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Land disturbing construction activities can become nonpoint sources of pollution, particularly due to suspended sediment, if erosion and sediment control measures are ineffective. Wattles have become popular practices among ...
