    Denver, Colorado : U.S. Department of the Interior (USDI), Bureau of Reclamation - Earth Sciences and Research Laboratory, Geotechnical Research, Technical Service Center ; Washington, D.C. : U.S. Government Printing Office [distributor]
    Keywords: earth structure ; soil ; exploration ; drilling ; remote sensing
    Description / Table of Contents: The Earth Manual comprehensively covers the engineering of earthen structures. Chapter 1, Properties of Soils, covers soil classification, index properties, and engineering properties, including many mathematical relationships. Chapter 2, Investigations, focuses on methods for determination of the qualities of the earth that structures are built with and upon. This chapter includes sections on Principles of Investigations, Exploratory Methods, Sampling and Testing Methods, and Recording and Reporting of Data. The Third Edition expands upon previous editions' treatments of drilling and remote sensing. Chapter 3, Control of Earth Construction, details the considerations necessary to ensure that the nearby materials used in various types of earth construction meet the design specifications. This chapter describes construction control for foundations, embankment dams, canals, pipelines, miscellaneous features, and stabilized soils.

    Washington, D.C. : U.S. Government Printing Office
    Keywords: erosion ; sedimentation ; soil ; sediment transport ; rivers ; reservoirs
    Description / Table of Contents: The Erosion and Sedimentation Manual provides a comprehensive coverage of subjects in nine chapters (i.e., introduction, erosion and reservoir sedimentation, noncohesive sediment transport, cohesive sediment transport, sediment modeling for rivers and reservoirs, sustainable development and use of reservoirs, river processes and restoration, dam decommissioning and sediment management, and reservoir surveys and data analysis). Each chapter is self-contained, with cross references of subjects that are discussed in different chapters of this manual. The manual also includes a list of commonly used notations used in the erosion and sedimenation literature, conversion factors between the Imperial and metric units, physical properties of water, and author and subject indexes for easy reference. Each chapter has a list of references for readers who would like to seek out more detailed information on specific subjects. The manual should serve as a useful book for researchers, university professors and graduate students, and engineers in solving erosion and sedimentation problems.
