Abstract: A methodology is presented for predicting postconstruction reliability of full‐scale soil liners given a set of direct and indirect (compaction moisture content and dry density) permeability measurements from a test fill. ...

Abstract: An initial design methodology is presented to estimate post‐construction reliability of soil liners, where reliability is defined as the probability that the post‐construction effective hydraulic conductivity

Abstract: Theoretical relationships suggest that the hydraulic conductivity of compacted soils can be evaluated with electrical resistivity measurements. On the material scale, high resistivity may be indicative of low molding water ...

Abstract: Engineers are increasingly involved in designing comprehensive solid‐waste management plans for rural areas and small towns. Hazardous waste from households, farms, and some small businesses is part of the solid‐waste ...

Abstract: Procedures were developed and tested for quantifying seepage losses in unlined irrigation canals for reaches on the order of 100 ft (30 m). The procedure is appropriate for trapezoidal canal sections underlain by clay with ...
