Sprayed zinc galvanic anodes for concrete marine bridge substructures / by Sagüés, Alberto A.(CARDINAL)324809; Powers, Rodney G.(CARDINAL)314377; Florida.Department of Transportation.State Materials Office.(CARDINAL)324808; Strategic Highway Research Program (U.S.)(CARDINAL)298325; University of South Florida.Department of Civil Engineering and Mechanics.;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 83-85.).Executive summary -- Introduction, objectives, and approach -- Procedure: Laboratory experiments -- Procedure: Field investigations -- Results: Laboratory experiments -- Results: Field investigations -- Discussion -- Conclusions -- References.A low-cost method for galvanic cathodic protection of reinforcing steel in concrete was examined. In this method, arc-sprayed zinc is deposited on the external concrete surface of steel-reinforced marine substructure bridge components, which are normally subject to corrosion of the reinforcement as a result of chloride ion contamination of the concrete. The concrete cover of corrosion-damaged substructure components is removed, exposing the reinforcing steel. After sandblasting, the zinc is arc-sprayed over the exposed steel and surrounding concrete, creating a 1/2 mm thick galvanic anode, which is in electronic contact with the steel and in electrolytic contact with the water in the concrete pores. In this investigation, the ability of the system to deliver protective current was examined by experiments in the laboratory and at field installations at bridges in the Florida Keys.

Magnitudes and Frequencies of Erosional Events -- 19. Rates of Denudation and Their Implications -- Appendix: The International System (SI) of Units.This second edition has the same general purpose as the first edition: to provide an integrated review of the basic knowledge and methods which form the foundation for advanced study and contributions to developments in the understanding of hillslopes. Since publication of the first edition, not only has knowledge advanced but an interdisciplinary approach to much of the research has become increasingly common and productive. These developments are reflected in this book by the threefold expansion of the bibliography and by the bringing together of the approaches and scientific knowledge from the contributing disciplines of geology, civil engineering, hydrology, soil science, ecology, and geomorphology to produce a comprehensive text which makes possible an integrated understanding of hillslopes. Approximately seventy per cent of the text is new, with many new figures and plates, which has enabled Professor Selby to provide a more comprehensive introduction than in the first edition to the nature of chemical bonding, the properties of mineral particles and fabrics of weak rock, rheology of rock and soil, hillslope hydrology, hillslope stratigraphy, and landslide hazard investigation.

On March 9, 1862, USS Monitor, prototype of a new class of armored warships, fought the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia at Hampton Roads, Virginia, only a day after Virginia had ravaged the Union fleet blockading the James River. In the world's first clash between iron-armored warships, Monitor and Virginia exchanged gunfire at close range for nearly four hours. The events at Hampton Roads changed the world's navies. After centuries of dominating battles at sea, wooden, sail-powered warships would be rendered obsolete. Iron, steam power, and heavy guns in rotating turrets were now the means to wage naval warfare. The harbinger of the change did not last long, however. Less than nine months later, the now-famous Monitor was under tow, heading south to Beaufort, North Carolina, when in heavy seas, the vessel sank, taking sixteen of its crew with it. Monitor was considered at the time to be a total and irretrievable loss; even the location of its final resting place became a mystery. Not until 1973 was the inverted hulk located, and in 1995, partial recovery of the wreck began under the auspices of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in partnership with the US Navy. The decision to place Monitor in a protected zone-a national marine sanctuary-marked another historic first for the vessel. The story of this decision, the subsequent protection and management of the historic resource, and the raising of major hull components including the gun turret, add another layer of history to the Monitor's fascinating story. Lavish illustration (photographs, site drawings, and artifact sketches) complement this informative and highly readable account by John D. Broadwater, whose decades-long career as an archaeologist included participating in several early Monitor expeditions and eventually heading Monitor National Marine Sanctuary, during which time he planned and directed the major expeditions that resulted in recovery of many of Monitor's most significant objects. Naval warfare buffs, amateurs and professionals involved in maritime archaeology, and Civil War aficionados will be intrigued and informed by USS MONITOR: A HISTORIC SHIP COMPLETES ITS FINAL VOYAGE."--BOOK JACKET.
