  • An evaluation of coastal Oregon's marginal aggregates

    Creator:
    Clemmons, Gregory H.
    Abstract:
    Coastal Oregon is deficient in quality construction aggregates. There is, however, an abundance of lower quality, or marginal, aggregate available for construction purposes. An evaluation of these marginal aggregates is the purpose of this paper. There are four classes of marginal rocks found on the Oregon Coast. Basalts, high in...

  • Development of structural layer coefficients for open graded asphalt emulsion mixes

    Creator:
    Hatch, David Russell
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the development of structural layer coefficients for open graded asphalt emulsion surfacing layers which can be used with the AASHO pavement design method, as modified by the U. S. Forest Service, Region 6. A field survey conducted to document the history, performance and material characteristics of in-service...

  • Evaluation of fabric reinforcement of the roadway structure

    Creator:
    Lavansiri, Direk
    Abstract:
    An evaluation of fabric reinforcement of the roadway structure is made. The study includes a parametric analy sis using layered elastic theory and a series of large scale model tests. The parametric. study analyzes the stresses and strains of roadway structures with a fabric layer between tna surface layer and...

  • Tidal influence on downstream fining in gravel-bed rivers

    Creator:
    Coles, Derron Rafiq
    Abstract:
    This research examines the downstream fining phenomenon as it operates in coastal gravel-bed rivers of Oregon. Downstream fining is a change in bed composition toward smaller sediment sizes in the downstream direction. Changes in stream flow discharge and channel slope affect the rate of bed-load transport, thereby altering the downstream...

  • Demonstration of a permeable barrier technology for the in-situ bioremediation of pentachlorophenol contaminated groundwater

    Creator:
    Cole, Jason David
    Abstract:
    A pilot scale demonstration of a biological permeable barrier was conducted in a pentachlorophenol-contaminated aquifer at a wood preserving facility. A permeable reactor was constructed to fit within a large diameter well. Arranged in series, a cylindrical reactor 24" x 36" (0.61 x 0.91m) (diameter x height) was partitioned to...
