This book was released on 1963 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnitudes of maximum and minimum stresses in the plane normal to the axis of several boreholes were determined in the rock adjacent to drifts at the Hard Hat experiment at the Nevada Test Site. Measurements were made both pre- and postshot. It is evident that the rock in the end of C-Drift was strongly disturbed by the Hard Hat event.

This book was released on 1967 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Project HANDCAR/PAINTED PONY, a low-yield nuclear device was detonated at a depth of 1,3200 feet in a vertical hole. The U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station was responsible for design of instrument grout mixtures with specified physical properties matching as nearly as possible those of the subsurface formations at the test site, design of a stemming grout mixture with specified heat of hydration and compressive strength properties, supervision of the field mixing and pumping of these grout mixtures, supervision of the device emplacement hole stemming operations, providing necessary instrumentation to determine levels of grout and pea gravel down-hole and determining the physical properties of field-mixed grout specimens on device detonation date.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the removal of four tunnel liners in the HARD HAT complex to determine the extent and type of damage to the surrounding rock. Although there was considerable crushing of rock at some locations, there was no evidence that classical spalling of rock had occurred. In contrast to the considerable rock damage observed in the two unlined sections in C-Drift, the rock surface behind the two liners removed in C-Drift appeared to be undamaged. From tests conducted on recovered samples of polyurethane foam, it was possible to make estimates of the minimum thickness to which the foam had been crushed during dynamic loading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Atomic Testing in Mississippi, David Allen Burke illuminates the nearly forgotten history of America's only nuclear detonations east of the Mississippi River. The atomic tests, conducted in the mid-1960s nearly 3,000 feet below ground in Mississippi's Tatum Salt Dome, posed a potential risk for those living within 150 miles of the site, which included residents of Hattiesburg, Jackson, Gulfport, Biloxi, Mobile, and New Orleans. While the detonations provided the United States with verification methods that helped limit the world's nuclear arsenals, they sparked widespread public concern. In 1964 and 1966 the Atomic Energy Commission conducted experiments at the salt dome -- code-named Dribble -- surrounded by a greater population density than any other test site in the United States. Although the detonations were not weapons tests, they fostered a conflict between regional politicians interested in government-funded science projects and a population leery of nuclear testing near their homes. Even today, residents near the salt dome are still fearful of long-term negative health consequences. Despite its controversy, Project Dribble provided the technology needed to detect and assess the performance of distant underground atomic explosions and thus verify international weapons treaty compliance. This technology led to advanced seismological systems that now provide tsunami warnings and detect atomic activity in other nuclear nations, such as Pakistan and North Korea.
