SOILS AND GEOLOGY PROCEDURES FOR FOUNDATION DESIGN OF BUILDINGS AND OTHER STRUCTURES This manual presents guidance for selecting and designing foundations and associated features for buildings, retaining structures, and machinery. Foundations for hydraulic structures are not included. Foundation design differs considerably from design of other elements of a structure because of the interaction between the structure and the supporting medium (soil and/or rock). q Chapter 2 Identification and Classification of Soil and Rock q Chapter 3 Engineering Properties of Soil and Rock q Chapter 4 Field Explorations q Chapter 5 Settlement Analysis q Chapter 6 Bearing-Capacity Analysis q Chapter 7 Dewatering ad Groundwater Control q Chapter 8 Slope Stability Analysis q Chapter 9 Selection of Foundation Type q Chapter 10 Spread Footings and Mat Foundations q Chapter 11 Deep Foundations Including Drilled Piers q Chapter 13 Foundations on Expansive Soils q Chapter 14 Retaining Walls and Excavation Support Systems q Chapter 15 Foundations on Fill and Backfilling q Chapter 16 Stabilization of Subgrade Soils q Chapter 17 Design for Equipment Vibrations and Seismic Loadings q Chapter 18 Foundations in Areas of Significant Frost Penetration FOUNDATIONS IN EXPANSIVE SOILS This manual presents guidance for selecting economical foundations on expansive soil to minimize structural distress to within tolerable levels and guidance for minimizing problems that may occur in structures on expansive soils. q RECOGNITION OF PROBLEM AREAS § Identification of swelling soils q METHODOLOGY FOR PREDICTION OF VOLUME CHANGES § Application of heave predictions § Potential total vertical heave § Potential differential heave § Shallow individual or continuous footings § Reinforced slab-on-grade foundations q MINIMIZATION OF FOUNDATION MOVEMENT § Preparation for construction q CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES AND INSPECTION § Minimization of foundation problems from construction q Of Swell Behavior From Soil Suction q Frame And Wall Construction Details Construction print reading is a key skill for technical students.

The criteria and guidelines contained in this manual apply to Army and Air Force installations in the continental United States. Planting design guidance in this manual is generally applicable for all installations. However, each installation should develop planting plans tailored to the specific landscape project. In addition to general design guidance, this manual describes planting techniques and methods for the successful establishment of plants. Factors which are critical in the selection of turfgrass are discussed; these include site evaluation, proposed use of the site and required maintenance. q Chapter 2 - Landscape Design Guidelines q Chapter 3 - Planting and Establishment of Trees, Shrubs, Ground Covers and Vines q Chapter 4 - Establishment of Turf q Appendix B - Street Plantings q Appendix C - Supplemental Turf Information As an engineer officer you may be assigned the job of directing some phase of utilities work. To do this efficiently, you must understand the broad, general phases of utilities operations. That is the purpose of this subcourse.

Large semipermanent installations in a theater of operations such as depots, base hospitals, replacement depots, and the like require fairly extensive, complex utilities systems. The design, construction, rehabilitation (where necessary) and operation of these systems are responsibilities of engineer units. While this course will not make you an expert, it will furnish sufficient basic information to enable you to function as an engineer staff officer or commander in the communications zone of a theater of operations. q Lesson 1: Electric Power Systems q Lesson 2: Electrical Distribution Systems q Lesson 3: Water Distribution Systems q Lesson 4: Sewage Collection and Disposal This manual is a guide for engineering personnel conducting surveys in support of military construction.

It will explain the types and uses of a large number of tools, a practical application of a selected group of tools, safety requirements, general care, and limited repair. A user must have, choose, and use the correct tools in order to do the work quickly, accurately, and safely. Without the proper tools and knowledge of how to use them, the user wastes time, reduces efficiency, and may face injury. § Safety and safety equipment § Miscellaneous measuring tools § Surface, depth, and height gages § Ring and snap gages and gage blocks § Miscellaneous measuring gages § Hammers, mallets, and mauls § Grinders and sharpening stones § Pipe cutting and threading tools § Tube cutting and flaring tools Various PowerPoint Lessons (converted to .pdf) from CARPENTRY AND MASONRY 1.
