Numerical investigation of aggregate trench-reinforced clay ground improvement to increase bearing capacity of continuous strip foundations

Creator:: Walter, Jakob R.
Abstract:: Compacted aggregate trenches are a method of soil improvement that could be substituted for commonly used aggregate piers in certain geometrical arrangements of shallow foundations. However, this type of ground improvement has little research to support the understanding of their contribution to improved strength of an unimproved clay soil. This...

Plans and Specifications for a Sewerage System for all of Corvallis Lying West of Ninth Street

Creator:: Gardner, Wilford W.
Abstract:: At the present time only a portion of Corvallis is sewered and a portion of the city still employs the most crude and unhealthful methods of disposal. The district east of Ninth Street, as shown on the map, has an effective system of well constructed sewers, of the combined storm-water...

Location of the neutral axis in wood beams

Creator:: Holm, Sarah C.
Abstract:: It is commonly accepted that for the analysis of wood beams, the neutral axis coincides with the centroid of the beam. Although this assumption is used in analysis, wood is not an isotropic material, as it has different elastic properties in the tangential, radial and longitudinal directions, nor is it...

Alternate Methods for the Extraction and Measurement of Pore Solution in Fresh Concrete

Creator:: Biever, Joseph
Abstract:: Knowledge of the pore solution composition and pore solution resistivity can be helpful for determining the durability of concrete structures. Most notably, pore solution resistivity can be used in the calculation of the formation factor of concrete, which is a ratio of the electrical resistivities of concrete and its pore...

The impact of powered mobility use on expressive communication development of young children with disabilities

Creator:: Morrison, Zoe
Abstract:: While the use of powered mobility devices for young children with mobility challenges has taken off in recent years following evidence that the use of powered mobility at a young age augments other traditional mobility skill interventions, the research is still limited and focuses on physical impacts more. Recently, the...

A preliminary assessment of post-fire dissolved organic carbon concentrations in the McKenzie River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Hyatt, Charles
Abstract:: In recent decades, the occurrence of large, high severity wildfires has increased substantially in many parts of the world, including the western United States. These fires have the potential to impact water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and downstream communities for many decades. As such, it is increasingly important to understand the...

Post-Earthquake Performance Assessment of Steel Strongback Braced Frames

Creator:: Rhoades, Katharine
Abstract:: Traditional braced frames are an efficient and economic means of resisting seismic demands. However, braced frames are prone to story mechanisms, which can result in concentrations of demands and damage during seismic events. Including steel strongbacks in conjunction with traditional braced frames can mitigate story mechanisms. The SBF results in...

The Design of a Roof Truss for the Proposed Drill Shed at the Oregon Agricultural College

Creator:: Thompson, Ralph Infield
Abstract:: By an appropriation of the Oregon Legislature of it becomes possible for the Oregon Agricultural College to build a drill shed, a thing long needed by this institution. Dennis, Hendricks and Tobey, architects of Portland, submitted plans for this drill shed and in designing the truss for this building we...

Investigation, analysis and design of an experiment to test ponding loads on flexible roof systems

Creator:: Stark, Duncan
Abstract:: While damages due to ponding are common and expensive, provisions for design and construction of flat roof systems lack guidance regarding these loads. The goal of this research is to present methods of designing or building flat roofs that are less vulnerable to this condition. An investigation of the literature,...
