Earth Linings for Seepage Control (Classic Reprint): Evaluation of Effectiveness and Durability - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Explore how earth linings perform in real-world canals and reservoirs over years of testing. This report shares practical findings from an outdoor seepage laboratory where soil linings were evaluated for effectiveness and durability. It explains the setup, the materials tested, and how leakage changed with time, season, and different lining choices.
The study runs through decades of data from 1948 to 1966, using controlled seepage channels to compare clay, silty, and sandy loam linings. It covers installation methods, compaction, subgrade preparation, and how weather and water delivery affect seepage. The goal is to help engineers choose linings that balance initial seepage with long-term durability.
What you’ll experience
- A clear description of experimental channels, subgrades, and the gravel cover used to protect linings.
- Insights into how seepage rates change over a season and with years of service.
- Information on how different soil textures influence performance and how bentonite additives affected results.
- Simplified formulas and graphs that relate seepage to time and material type.
Ideal for readers of engineering reports, canal design, and seepage control studies who want a grounded, data-driven view of earth-lining effectiveness and longevity.

impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a 19-year-long study of various soil types installed as linings for irrigation canals and reservoirs. The author, an agricultural engineer, and soil scientist, sought to evaluate the effectiveness and serviceability of earth linings. The study commenced in 1948 and concluded in 1966, with periodic seepage measurements taken throughout irrigation seasons over this period. The extensive data gathered is analyzed and summarized, providing insights into lining effectiveness and durability. The book explores the impact of soil type, subgrade conditions, and water quality on seepage losses. It also examines the influence of factors such as bentonite additions, intermittent water delivery, and microbiological activity on lining performance. The findings contribute to our understanding of earth lining materials and their suitability for controlling seepage in irrigation systems. The book offers a valuable resource for professionals involved in the design, construction, and maintenance of irrigation infrastructure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
