Includes bibliographical references (volume 1, page 95).v. 1. Research report and design guide -- v. 2. Experimental data.Laboratory report;The objective of this report is to develop and test methodologies for computing energy losses at junction manholes. Laboratory data obtained over a 6-year period at the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Hydraulics Laboratory are analyzed within the framework of three methodologies: the energy grade line, power loss, and neural networks. Descriptions of the methods are presented, along with a statistical analysis comparing the accuracy with which each method computes observed depth in the junction manhole.Sponsored by Office of Engineering and Highway Operations R & D, Federal Highway Administration, and performed by GKY and Associates, under contract no.

Performance of epoxy coated rebars in bridge decks / by Smith, J. L.(CARDINAL)710268; Virmani, Yash Paul.(CARDINAL)317090; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 99-100).Introduction -- Summary of individual reports -- Summary of findings and discussion -- Conclusions -- References.Final report.Epoxy coated rebar (ECR) was introduced in the mid 1970s as a means to minimize concrete deterioration caused by corrosion of the reinforcing steel and to extend the useful life of highway structures. This report summarizes the results of investigations performed by highway agencies in the United States and Canada, academia, and the Canadian Strategic Highway Research Program to evaluate the performance of ECR. A total of 92 bridge decks, two bridge barrier rails, and one noise barrier rail was evaluated in the States of California, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin, and the provinces of Alberta, Nova Scotia, and Ontario.Sponsored and performed by Office of Engineering Research and Development, Federal Highway Administration.
