Book Description
The objective of this investigation was to design, construct, and evaluate two promising ALRS concepts for full-scale operations of the F-4 aircraft. After aircraft traffic was completed, test sections were trafficked to failure with loadcarts simulating maximum loaded F-4 and F-15 aircraft. Aircraft and pavement surface interaction were evaluated for a thin asphalt surfaced pavement and for unsurfaced stabilization soil pavement. Significant findings included: (1) an asphalt surface course thickness of 2 inches over a conventionally designed pavement will support 150 passes of the F-4 aircraft, (2) a surface course is required for stabilized soil structures, particularly in areas subjected to jet blast for the prevention of foreign object damage to engines, (3) deflection from the falling weight deflectometer can be used with a layered elastic model to predict performance of the pavement structures, and (4) the CBR design procedure should not be modified for the design of ALRS pavements.

Gravel Roads
Author: Ken Skorseth
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Gravel roads
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Leading the Way
Author: Ronald B. Hartzer
Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 846
Book Description
"Leading the way describes how the men and women of Air Force civil engineering have provided the basing that enabled the Air Force to fly, fight, and win. This book depicts how engineers built hundreds of bases during World Wars I and II, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. At the same time, these engineers operated and maintained a global network of enduring, peacetime bases. It describes the engineers' role in special projects such as the ballistic missile program, the Arctic early warning sites, and construction of the U.S. Air Force Academy. Using hundreds of sources, this detailed narrative tells the story of how civil engineers have been organized, trained, equipped, and employed for more than 100 years. From the beaches of Normandy to the mountains of Afghanistan, civil engineers have forged an unmatched record of success and built a solid foundation for today's Air Force."--Back cover.
