Download or read book Ground Anchors and Anchored Structures written by Petros P. Xanthakos and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1991-09-03 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treating anchorages as a direct application of the laws of statics and the theories governing the transfer of load, this book focuses on designs that are safe and reasonably priced. It is divided into two parts. Following a general introduction in the first chapter, Part One goes on to explore anchor systems, components, installation and construction details. Presents special anchor systems such as extractable, compression-type, multibell, and regroutable anchors. Analyzes the transfer of load and its relation to failure modes and anchor load capacity; deals with design considerations; covers mechanisms and types of corrosion; and details anchor stressing, testing programs, and evaluation standards. Part Two considers uses and applications and design aspects of anchored structures; presents design examples of practical value and reasonable simplicity; and incorporates examples and case histories.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation This book shows how routine inspection and monitoring can extend the service life of the anchored structures that represent key elements of a country¿s infrastructure. Where inspection highlights unacceptable tendon corrosion or over-stressing, the results provide early warning of the need for precautionary or remedial measures, in order to safeguard the integrity of the anchored structure. The findings in this book show that in spite of these benefits, sufficient attention is not currently paid to routine maintenance inspection and service behaviour monitoring. Contents Include: ¿ Maintenance testing and service behaviour monitoring of permanent ground anchorages ¿ Inspection procedures and physical conditions recorded in service ¿ Service behaviour monitoring procedures and performance in service ¿ North American Dam rehabilitation ¿ Rock bolts in tunnels and mines ¿ Non-destructive integrity testing ¿ Corrosion monitoring and corrosion protection systems ¿ Case histories of satisfactory performance, shortcomings and failures in service ¿ Recommendations and standards for inspection, monitoring and repair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents state-of-the-practice information on the design and installation of cement-grouted ground anchors and anchored systems for highway applications. The anchored systems discussed include flexible anchored walls, slopes supported using ground anchors, landslide stabilization systems, and structures that incorporate tiedown anchors. This book draws extensively in describing issues such as subsurface investigation and laboratory testing, basic anchoring principles, ground anchor load testing, and inspection of construction materials and methods used for anchored systems. This book provides detailed information on design analyses for ground anchored systems. Topics discussed include selection of design earth pressures, ground anchor design, design of corrosion protection system for ground anchors, design of wall components to resist lateral and vertical loads, evaluation of overall anchored system stability, and seismic design of anchored systems. Also included in this book are two detailed design examples and technical specifications for ground anchors and for anchored walls.

Working Group on Corrosion and Corrosion Protection of Prestressed Ground Anchorages and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1986 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This state of the art report summarizes the mechanisms and types of corrosion to which a ground anchorage based on a prestressing tendon can be subjected. The chemical, electrochemical and bacterial reactions between agressive soils and steel and concrete are dealt with in detail. There is a carefully recorded and analysed list of a number of known cases of tendon corrosion. A corrosion protection philosophy is proposed, with five classes of protection, with examples of such protection in current practice.
Download or read book Specialty Construction Techniques for Dam and Levee Remediation written by Donald A. Bruce and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dam and levee remediation has become more prevalent since the start of the twenty-first century. Given the vastness and complexity of the infrastructures involved, keeping up with maintenance needs is very difficult. Major surges in repair are usually triggered by nature’s wake-up calls, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes. The challenge has been to develop methods that ensure safe, effective, reliable, and robust solutions for current and future remediation issues. Specialty Construction Techniques for Dam and Levee Remediation presents the state of practice in North American dam and levee remediation as it relates to the use of specialty geotechnical construction techniques, such as anchors, grouting, cutoff (diaphragm) walls, and deep mixing. The book focuses on the actual construction processes, describing design and performance aspects of remediation where appropriate. Chapters deal with the application of drilling and grouting methods, methods to install mix-in-place (category 2) cutoff structures, excavated and backfilled trenches (category 1), composite cutoff walls, and stabilization using prestressed rock anchors. The book also provides a comprehensive guide to dam and levee instrumentation, covering planning, operating principles, data management, staffing, and automation. As an educational and salutary example of ineffective efforts, the final chapter presents a case history of a series of remediations performed on a single project, which ultimately proved unsuccessful. A wide range of methods has been developed in response to the challenges that arise in the dam and levee remediation arena and the need for a competitive edge. These new methods are designed and monitored using state-of-the-art techniques, giving rise to the emergence of new intensity and initiative in this field. This book captures this transformation by examining the theory and practice of contemporary remedial techniques, using recent U.S. case histories to provide knowledge and inspiration to readers, both in North America and around the world.
