"This report describes studies and analyses made to determine the load-carrying capacities of the pavements at Simmons Army Airfield with respect to various aircraft landing gear assemblies and pavement life categories. The report includes data obtained from design specifications, in-place and laboratory tests performed during construction of the pavements, and in-place and laboratory tests performed for evaluation purposes" (p. 1).

Preface: The purpose of this report is to present the results of a condition survey performed on taxiway 14, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, in accordance with addendum 6 to Instructions and Outline, "Condition Survey for Existing Pavements."

Preface: This report presents the results of a condition survey performed on taxiway 3 at March AFB, Riverside, California, in June 1955 in accordance with addendum 3 to Instructions and Outline, "Condition Surveys for Existing Pavements."

Preface: This report presents the results of condition surveys of taxiway 5 and the east N-S runway, McCoy Air Force Base, Orlando, Florida, made in accordance with addendum 3 to Instructions and Outline, "Condition Surveys for Existing Pavements."

Report of a hydraulic model investigation "to determine the most economical method of providing protection for Cumberland and Ridgeley against floods somewhat greater than the flood of March 1936 Specifically, the model was used to determine: the proper sections and grades of channels required to pass the design flood with maximum reductions in flood stages; the minimum heights of levees and walls; and the channel treatment required at bridges to insure the safe passage of floodwaters with minimum alterations to the structures" (p. 4).

From foreword: This report covers one phase of a comprehensive study to determine the relationship between the trafficability of soils and the mobility of military vehicles.

Foreword: This report covers one part of a comprehensive study to determine the relationship between the trafficability of soils and the mobility of military vehicles.

Preface: The study was initiated in early 1951 to develop methods of predicting the moisture content of several soils in the vicinity of Vicksburg, Mississippi.

"The purpose of this report is to consolidate data gathered by the Corps of Engineers in various geologic investigations, and to augment this material with pertinent information garnered from the extensive investigations and studies [of the Mississippi River deltaic plain and its associated offshore area]" (p. 1). The report focuses primarily on those materials that are most important from an engineering standpoint.

The following report presents the results of various investigations on the study of the durability of concrete exposed to natural weathering. The report is divided into two parts: first, the natural weathering exposure stations and test procedures are analyzed, then follows the analysis of the programs of investigations.

"The purpose of this report is to present the results of a study of the performance of the three relief well systems [along the Missouri River] during the July 1951 and April 1952 floods, and to compare their performance with design predictions. [...] The report includes observed uplift and well-flow data, descriptions of relief well operations during the floods, and an analysis of the effectiveness of the well systems together with discussion and comments on several experimental and test wells" (p. 2).

Series of pile loading tests performed on the Morganza Floodway control structure to determine the most economic way to support the foundation in the compressible underlying soils. The report also provides information about the structure and previous tests.

Summary: Enid Dam, a unit in the flood-control plan for the Yazoo River, is a rolled-fill structure about 85 ft high and 8400 ft long, and contains about 5-3/4 million cu yd of fill.

"This report contains a summary of construction of procedures and field observations made during and after construction of Benbrook Dam, a brief review of the original design data, and comparisons of design predictions with performance data" (p. 1). It is part of a series to compare field experience and performance of existing structures with design predictions.

This report contains general background information about the John H. Kerr project, which comprises a retaining structure, Buggs Island Dam, and a backwater protection structure, Island Creek Dam. It also provides more detailed information about the design, construction, and prototype observation of each of the dams.

This report reviews the performance of the Lookout Point Dam located on the Middle Fork of the Willamette River in Oregon. "This study is one of a series of similar studies of the foundation and soil mechanics features of earth dams [...] In these studies original design data are reviewed, construction experience is summarized, and performance fo the completed structures is compared with design predictions to provide information for use in the design and construction of future similar projects" (p. 1).

This report provides a summary and analysis of field observations and performance of the Tom Jenkins Dam in Ohio, compared with original design predictions.

This report provides a review of the design and performance of the embankment and foundation of Blakely Mountain Dam in Arkansas. "This study is one of a series of similar studies of the foundation and soil mechanics features of earth dams [...] In these studies field experience is analyzed and performance of the completed structures is compared with design predictions to provide information for use in the design and construction of future projects" (p. 1).

Report of findings from various tests: "Model investigations of the surges occurring in sewer lines and of the flow conditions in a typical pumping plant, used to dispose of drainage during high river stages, were conducted as a part of the local flood protection project for Louisville, Kentucky. Studies conducted on a 1:32 scale simplified model of the Southern Outfall Sewer provided general information on the relative amount of relief from surges to be expected from the pumping station and manholes in the sewer line upstream" (p. v).

From purpose of survey: The purpose of this survey is to provide data from which to determine the suitability of portions of Camp Stewart for use as a tank firing range.
