The effects of gypsum on infiltration and surface properties of some western Oregon soils

Creator:

Pronold, Michael Joseph

Abstract:

The effects of broadcast gypsum on infiltration rates, crusting, aggregate stability, and runoff and sediment yields were analyzed during the winter months on three West Oregon soils. The results were used to evaluate its utility as a management tool to help control erosion. An application rate of two metric tons...

Predicting the thermo-mechanical behavior of a gypsum-to-wood nailed connection

Fuller, James J.

Abstract:

With high costs of testing and rating a structural system for fire resistance, the utilization of computer simulations that approximate the integrity of structural subsystems could conceivably reduce development costs. Before an analysis of a light-frame wood system can occur, information on the components of the substructure must be known....
