| This report presents the development of condition rating procedures for tainter and butterfly filling and emptying valves for navigation lock structures. Several site visits and field investigations were conducted, experts from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers were asked to rate the valves, and the results were compared to a preliminary version of the rating system. Modifications were made to reflect the experts' opinions more accurately. In the following document, ... |

| The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers established a Repair, Evaluation, Maintenance, and Rehabilitation (REMR) program to focus more attention on deterioration and maintenance rates of civil works structures. An Iowa State University (ISU) research team has implemented this program and developed rating and maintenance procedures for miter lock structures as well as other structural components. This supplement describes and documents updates to the original inspection procedure and rating rules for ... |

| The objectives of this work were (1) to develop an inspection and rating system that uniformly and consistently describes the current condition of miter lock gate structures, and (2) to develop guidelines for the maintenance and repair of these structures. After inspection data are gathered, they are filed on a computer disk through a microcomputer program. The program will then compute the structural and functional condition indexes for miter lock ... |

| For much of its early history the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was heavily involved in the design and construction of new facilities, but now the mission of the Corps is shifting from construction to the maintenance of existing facilities. The Corps has addressed its changing role by instituting a Repair, Evaluation, Maintenance, and Rehabilitation (REMR) program. As a part of this program, a project team at Iowa State University ... |
