Download or read book Biotechnical and Soil Bioengineering Slope Stabilization written by Donald H. Gray and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1996-08-23 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive, practical guide to the selection,construction, and installation of soil bioengineering andbiotechnical slope protection Here is the ultimate guide to physically attractive,environmentally compatible, and cost-effective methods ofprotecting slopes from erosion and mass wasting. Lavishlyillustrated with more than 150 photographs and supplemented withscores of charts and tables, this book covers the entire subjectfrom general principles and background on the nature of soilerosion and mass movement to detailed information on rootstrengths, treatment selection, unit costs, critical tractivestresses, methods for harvesting and handling live cuttings, andmore. Four illustrated case studies, each addressing a different set ofproblems and solutions, demonstrate both the application ofparticular technologies and the site investigation, planning,scheduling, and organization required to complete these projectssuccessfully. This unique reference handbook * Reviews the horticultural and engineering underpinnings forbiotechnical and soil engineering treatments * Documents and explains the role of woody plants in stabilizingslopes against both surficial erosion and mass movement * Provides details on a broad range of soil bioengineering methods,including live staking, live fascines, brushlayering, live cribwalls, branchpacking, and live slope gratings * Describes various biotechnical methods and materials, includingthe incorporation of vegetation in erosion control blankets,flexible mats, cellular revetments (geocells), rock armor (riprap), and gabion and open-front crib walls * Summarizes the findings of the National ScienceFoundation-sponsored workshop to assess the state of the art anddetermine research needs For practicing professionals, researchers, and students ingeotechnical engineering, geology, soil science, forestry andforest engineering, landscape architecture, environmentalhorticulture, and restoration ecology, this book offers thorough,up-to-date coverage that is not available from any other singlesource.

This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transportation systems provide tremendousopportunities and, if properly located on the landscapewith well-designed drainage features, can remain stablefor years with negligible affects to adjoining areas.Roads, however, are often linked to increased rates oferosion and accumulated adverse environmentalimpacts to both aquatic and terrestrial resources.Transportation systems provide access and allowutilization of land and resources. Developmentpriorities usually emphasize access, safety, andeconomics while environmental concerns refer tooperational and maintenance problems such as surfacecondition; plugged drainage structures, includingditchlines; mass failures and surface erosion; or reducedaccess.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioengineering is attracting many high quality students. This invaluable book has been written for beginning students of bioengineering, and is aimed at instilling a sense of engineering in them.Engineering is invention and designing things that do not exist in nature for the benefit of humanity. Invention can be taught by making inventive thinking a conscious part of our daily life. This is the approach taken by the authors of this book. Each author discusses an ongoing project, and gives a sample of a professional publication. Students are asked to work through a sequence of assignments and write a report. Almost everybody soon realizes that more scientific knowledge is needed, and a strong motivation for the study of science is generated. The teaching of inventive thinking is a new trend in engineering education. Bioengineering is a good field with which to begin this revolution in engineering education, because it is a youthful, developing interdisciplinary field.
