Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pipe jacking is a construction process for the no-dig laying of pipes. Successful pipe jacking demands low skin friction between the ground and the jacked pipe. This is achieved with bentonite lubrication. The bentonite slurry fed into the annular gap fulfils several purposes. It stabilises the annular gap by supporting the surrounding ground and reduces friction contact between ground and jacked pipe. The Bentonite Handbook deals comprehensibly with the relevant aspects of annular gap lubrication: starting with the ground conditions, which are of decisive importance for lubrication, through the rheological properties of the bentonite slurry to the technical components of lubrication technology and lubrication strategy. The use of standardised measuring apparatus is described as well as mixing equipment and the automatic lubrication system. Overview tables with calculations and suggested values for bentonite consumption quantities depending on the prevailing ground conditions and the pipe jacking parameters complete the recommendations.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Download or read book Civil Engineering101:Beginner's Guide for Metro Rail system & Engineering written by Prof Gautam Bondyopadhyay and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2023-11-19 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era defined by rapid urbanization and the pressing need for efficient, sustainable transportation solutions, the emergence of metro rail systems stands as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation. As cities continue to expand and populations grow, the need for efficient, sustainable, and reliable modes of transportation becomes ever more pressing. Metro rail systems have emerged as a solution to the challenges posed by congestion, pollution, and limited urban space. These systems represent the culmination of decades of engineering prowess, incorporating cutting-edge technologies and forward-thinking design principles. The engineering marvel that is the metro rail system addresses these challenges head-on, revolutionizing urban mobility and reshaping the urban landscape. At the behest of the students, I tried to design this book primarily to provide clear-cut, contemporary, and stimulating text with a lot of sketches and photos of Kolkata Metro construction in a convenient form for the final-year Civil Engineering students. An attempt has been made to provide a quite modern and up-to-date coverage of the art of civil engineering which is changing by the day. This book has been divided into Five Modules, namely ‘Overview of Metro Systems’, ’Civil Engineering’,’ Mechanical and HVAC’, ‘Brief on Electronics & Communication Engineering’ and ‘Brief on Electrical Engineering’ covering 17 Chapters with questions and answers at the end of each Module in line with AICTE/ MAKAUT syllabi. Richly illustrated with diagrams, photographs, and architectural renderings, "Urban Arteries" offers a visual feast for readers interested in the intersection of engineering and urban development. I have sourced various details, specifications, and data made publicly available by Indian Metro Rail, and Kolkata Metro Rail on the web. This book is crafted to be a guiding light for aspiring civil engineering students who seek to unravel the complexities of metro railway systems. It serves as a comprehensive exploration of the principles, methodologies, and multidisciplinary facets that converge to create these marvels of modern engineering. By reorganizing and expanding upon the provided content, the book offers a comprehensive guide to metro systems and engineering, covering various aspects including planning, civil engineering, electronics, mechanical systems, and electrical systems. The content aims to provide readers with a thorough understanding of the complexities involved in designing, constructing, and operating modern metro systems in urban environments

Download or read book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering written by Jay Ameratunga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

Download or read book Handbook of Tunnel Engineering I written by Bernhard Maidl and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tunnel engineering is one of the oldest, most interesting but also challenging engineering disciplines and demands not only theoretical knowledge but also practical experience in geology, geomechanics, structural design, concrete construction, machine technology, construction process technology and construction management. The two-volume "Handbuch des Tunnel- und Stollenbaus" has been the standard reference for German-speaking tunnellers in theory and practice for 30 years. The new English edition is based on a revised and adapted version of the third German edition and reflects the latest state of knowledge. The book is published in two volumes, with the first being devoted to more practical themes of construction and construction process in drill and blast and mechanised tunnelling. Microtunnelling and ventilation are also dealt with. All chapters include practical examples.

Download or read book Handbook of Geotechnical Investigation and Design Tables written by Burt G. Look and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical handbook of properties for soils and rock contains, in a concise tabular format, the key issues relevant to geotechnical investigations, assessments and designs in common practice. In addition, there are brief notes on the application of the tables. These data tables are compiled for experienced geotechnical professionals who require a reference document to access key information. There is an extensive database of correlations for different applications. The book should provide a useful bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application to practical engineering solutions. The initial chapters deal with the planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and rock properties and some of the more used testing is then covered. Later chapters show the reliability and correlations that are used to convert that data in the interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design. This book is intended primarily for practicing geotechnical engineers working in investigation, assessment and design, but should provide a useful supplement for postgraduate courses.
