After the successful experimentation in Iowa with thin-bonded concrete overlays as an alternative to bituminous overlay, the Louisiana DOTD decided to resurface a short section of US 61, north of Baton Rouge, using this technique during April 1981. The resurfacing consisted of 5.8-bag, limestone aggregate concrete mix with an average thickness of a

A series of static and dynamic loading tests was conducted on a full-scale bridge specimen constructed using prestressed precast panels placed on top of prestressed precast girders and covered with a cast-in-place bridge deck. The north half had panels with transverse prestressing strands extending beyond the panel edges, and the south half had smo

Twelve healthy young men were evaluated in each of four experimental conditions involving the possible combinations of two exercise conditions given prior to performance testing (1 h of heavy exercise vs. no exercise) and two altitude conditions (ground level vs. 12,500 ft) which were administered during performance testing. Performance was measure

The age of a population is observed to be influential in how land is used. Various land uses attract different volumes of traffic. With population pyramids, the population of the age groups can be predicted, and it follows that future land requirements by type of use can be estimated. These land use estimates can, in turn, be used to predict the am

With the escalation of fuel costs, many people are turning to tighter, better insulated buildings as a means of achieving energy conservation. This is especially true in northern climates, where heating seasons are long and severe. Installing efficient well sealed vapor barriers and weather stripping and caulking around doors and windows reduces co
