Prepared by the Task Committee on Inland Navigation of the Waterways Committee of the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE. Inland Navigation: Channel Training Works presents design guidance on structures that reshape a river channel to create reliable depths and widths for safe and dependable vessel transit. This Manual of Practice focuses on training structures used in open-river channels with flow in one direction (non-tidal), and many of the structures are also appropriate for use on low-head (no reservoir storage capacity) lock-and-dam river systems. It describes in detail the proper use of dikes and revetments and explains how to design channel dimensions and alignment so that little or no maintenance dredging is required. Topics include: sediment management in river channels; evolution of training works in the United States; training structure types and layout; dikes; revetments; other types of training works; case studies; costs; environmental design; model studies; performance evaluation and inspection; repair techniques. Includes a glossary and a reprint of a 1991 paper on an analytical method to determine dike length. MOP 124 is a key reference for navigation engineers working on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers projects or in the private sector, as well as state and local government officials charged with managing river systems.

Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Grouting and Deep Mixing, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, February 15-18, 2012. Sponsored by the Deep Foundations Institute; International Conference on Grouting, Inc.; the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 189 peer-reviewed papers focusing on the science and technology of grouting. Papers describe advances in materials, instrumentation, control, and the basic science of grouting and deep mixing, and they lead the way to better understanding of and new applications for these technologies. Several papers focus on new developments in jet grouting and deep mixing, which are used extensively in the restoration of levee and flood control structures in and around New Orleans. Topics include: anchors and piles; cement-based grouts; chemical and other grouts; dam foundation grouting, grout curtains, and cutoffs; deep mixing methods, applications, and performance testing; grouting for seepage control; highways and transportation; jet grouting; karst grouting; levees and flood walls; low mobility grouting; mine applications; permeation grouting; performance testing; structural support; and tunneling. These papers are useful to geotechnical researchers and engineers, construction supervisors, and other professionals involved in the planning, design, and implementation of underground grouting and deep mixing programs.
