This manual prescribes guidance for designing hydraulic steel structures (HSS) by load and resistance factor design (LRFD) and guidance for fracture control. Allowable stress design (ASD) guidance is provided as an alternative design procedure or for those structure types where LRFD criteria have yet to be developed. This manual applies to HQUSACE/OCE elements, major subordinate commands, districts, laboratories, and field operating activities having responsibility for design of civil works projects.

The completely updated Second Edition of "ASCE Manual No. 73" provides information and recommendations on principles and procedures that are effective in enhancing the quality of constructed projects. The guide discusses the roles, responsibilities, requirements, and limits of authority of participants in the design and construction process, highlighting concepts and practices that are valuable to each in achieving project goals and objectives. It presents several key themes, including the value of clearly defining and assigning responsibilities, the importance of teamwork, the need for clear

From foundation exploration to analysis techniques, this comprehensive guidebook provides information on the selection, design, and installation of sheet pile walls based upon the present state of the technology for sheet pile-soil-structure interaction behavior. Chapters address open channel hydraulic theory; system loads including surcharge and water loads; system stability and design for rotational stability; non-linear soil springs; and nonlinear anchor springs.

Strength Design in Aluminum: A Review of Three Codes has been prepared by the Task Committee on Strength Design in Aluminum of the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE to compare the Canadian CSA S157-03 Strength Design in Aluminum, 2003; the Eurocode 9 Design of Aluminum Alloy Structures (EC9); and the Aluminum Association’s Specification for Aluminum Structures: Load and Resistance Factor Design, 2nd Edition, 2000. Frequently using a tabular format, this report compares how the three codes treat symbols, design principles, material principles, resistance limited by yield or rupture

Geotechnical Baseline Reports for Construction: Suggested Guidelines examines the role of the Geotechnical Baseline Report (GBR) as a means of allocating and managing subsurface risks associated with subsurface construction. It discusses the importance and benefit of ensuring compatibility between the GBR and other contract documents, as well as the importance of involving experienced firms and individuals in the preparation and review process.
