Prepared by the Horizontal Directional Drilling Design Guideline Task Committee of the Technical Committee on Trenchless Installation of Pipeline Systems of the Pipeline Division of ASCE This Manual of Practice addresses the design of major pipeline or duct segments to be installed by horizontal directional drilling (HDD). HDD is a trenchless excavation method that is accomplished in three phases and uses a specialized horizontal drilling rig with ancillary tools and equipment. Topics include predesign surveys, drilled path design, pipe design, construction impact, and as-built documentation. This new edition captures advances in drilling equipment, improvements for tracking, and considerations for using alternative pipe materials. MOP 108 is a guide for design engineers who have previous experience and knowledge of the HDD installation process and pipeline design methods.

Keynote lectures presented at GeoCongress 2012, held in Oakland, California, March 25-29, 2012. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. Geotechnical Engineering State of the Art and Practice: Keynote Lectures from GeoCongress 2012 contains 30 peer-reviewed papers that survey the entire breadth of research and practice in geotechnical engineering. Each paper is contributed by distinguished geotechnical engineers who were invited to create a comprehensive overview of the profession by focusing on a specific technical subject. About half the papers present the state of the art by summarizing the latest research and challenges for geotechnical researchers. The other half demonstrate the state of the practice by reporting on issues as they are tackled by geotechnical engineers in the field. Taken together, these papers showcase the best of the profession and form a basis for integrating geotechnical research with its practice. Topics include: foundations and earth stability; geotechnical modeling; site characterization, testing, and monitoring; geoenvironmental engineering; embankments and slope stability; soil properties; pavements; tunneling and underground spaces; and earthquake engineering. This collection is an important touchstone for geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineers, whatever their focus on research and practice.

Prepared by the Task Committee on Contaminated Ground Water Modeling of the Committee on Ground Water Quality of the Environmental Engineering Division of ASCE. Quality of Ground Water assesses widely used models of contaminated ground water. Based on a survey of the professional community to determine which models are in frequent use, the models were classified according to a unified set of criteria. The Manual presents guidelines for the application of the models that include the capabilities and limitations of each model.

Sponsored by the Utility Risk Management Division of the Utility Engineering and Surveying Institute of ASCE Subsurface Utility Engineering for Municipalities: Prequalification Criteria and Scope of Work Guide is a resource for understanding subsurface utility engineering (SUE) and bringing up-to-date practices to the application of SUE for public works projects. SUE incorporates existing and emerging technology to identify, characterize, and map underground utility facilities throughout the project development process. This book answers basic questions about SUE, such as, "What is it?", "How is it used?", and "What is its future?" Also included are chapters on consultant prequalification criteria and a checklist of scoping items that affect costs and scheduling. This report will be a valuable resource for engineers, contractors, and project owners working to improve the quality and efficiency of public work projects.

Sponsored by the Geomatics Division of ASCE and the National Geodetic Survey of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. CORS and OPUS for Engineers describes new global positioning system (GPS) technologies and procedures that are immediately relevant to civil engineering professionals engaged in high-accuracy positioning. This collection of 22 articles, half new and half previously published in peer-reviewed journals, assembles the latest thinking on the use of two advanced services-CORS and OPUS-for obtaining accurate positional coordinates. Created and managed under the auspices of the National Geodetic Survey, the CORS (continuously operating reference stations) network contains more than 1,600 permanent, geodetic-quality receivers that collect GPS data around the clock at locations distributed throughout the United States, its territories, and a few foreign countries. These data are then made freely available to the public via the Internet. OPUS (online positioning user service) is a free, automated, Web-based utility that provides its users with accurate and reliable positional coordinates in a timely fashion by processing each user's GPS data with corresponding data from the CORS network. Together, CORS and OPUS form the backbone of today's high-accuracy, three-dimensional positioning activities. Both theoretical and empirical, this collection is a must-have for practitioners and researchers involved in surveying, GIS, remote sensing, and mapping applications that utilize GPS technology.
