Erosion Control Methods for Army Training Land Rehabilitation: Survey of Current Technology
Authors: Eunice G. Vachta; Robert E. Riggins; CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING RESEARCH LAB (ARMY) CHAMPAIGN IL |
| |
Abstract: This report is a comprehensive summary of erosion control technology which classifies and briefly discusses current methods, materials, and structures. Greater demands are being made on Army training lands, making them more vulnerable to damage from erosion. Managers of these lands can intervene in erosion processes using appropriate erosion control strategies. These methods can preserve the land's capability to support training activities. Erosion control measures are classified here according to their roles in disrupting erosion: soil stabilization, runoff management, and sediment control. Within each of these categories, engineering technologies for erosion control are identified in the areas of landforming, materials, and structures. The information given is brief and general; for specifics the reader must consult the technical references. Future reports will develop guidance to help planners identify erosion problems and select appropriate and cost-effective control measures. (fr)
