Hailed on its first publication as a masterful account for both the general reader and student, The Science of Water continues to ask the same questions: water, water, water … water everywhere, right? In addition, it asks: the Earth’s supply of fi nite water resources can be increased constantly to meet growing demand, right? Despite these absurdities, a belief actually does prevail that the Earth’s fi nite water resources can be increased constantly to meet growing demand. History has demonstrated that consumption and waste increase in response to rising supply. However, the fact of the matter is that freshwater is a fi nite resource that can be increased only slightly through desalinization or some other practices, all at tremendous cost.

Concrete face rockfill dams are being used with greater frequency and to greater heights in the last decade. The developments leading to this progress are many and are addressed in the papers included in this book. Major features contributing to progress are the development and use of the smooth drum vibratory roller and design improvements in the cut-off to the foundation and concrete face slabs and joints. Papers on the performance of the existing modern dams, rockfill zoning, dam construction, and seismic analysis, and dams currently under design are included. Details are presented on dams constructed of gravel and low compressive strength rock and dams on poor foundations, as well as on dams of high compressive strength rockfill on excellent non-erodible foundations.

Code of Practice for Precast Concrete Construction
Author: Buildings Department, Hong Kong | Size: 1.21 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: The Government of the Hong Kong | Year: 2003 | pages: 73
This Code of Practice deals with the design, construction and quality control of structural and nonstructural precast concrete elements. The design method used in this code is the Limit State Design as given in the Code of Practice for the Structural Use of Concrete. Other alternative design approaches may also be used provided sufficient justifying calculations are submitted. For bridges and associated structures, reference should also be made to the Structures Design Manual for Highways and Railways issued by the Highways Department. All design should be carried out under the supervision of a registered structural engineer or authorized person, with the execution of the works carried out under proper supervision. The requirements outlined in this code apply to both structural and non-structural members.
