When would you consider accropodes to armour a rubble mound breakwater?
Accopodes are preferred when: i) armour stone quarrying is difficult to get bigger stones weighing more than 12t involving loading,at quarry site, transportation, unloading at project site for stacking all using heavy duty crane and then again transporting for placement abd placing whereas this simplified to mere casting at site and transportation to site for placement ii) Bye products of lesser stones will be over 50% iii) Design wave height(Hs) is more 3m/10 to 12 sec iv) For larger wave heights this is cheaper construction but you have to pay royalty to Sogreah still. v) Better interlocking property in accropode vi) You can have steeper slope beter than rubblemound meaning lesser quantity vii) Once placed it is stable by and large and no replacement viii) Better stabity and damage coeffcients for use Hudsons or Van der Meer formula ix) Single layer -fairly easy for construction x) Accropode II is still better-lesser concrete quantity an more friction capacity and good capacity to withstand worst wave climate xi) For lesser depths and reasonably moderate climates rubblemound is still better bcz placement does not require high skills where as it in accropodes this is must and sogreah will sit on your neck on the quality and interlocking necessity There are many more-i would stop here -i ahave an appointmeny k.dharmalingam port planning consultant Chennai, Tamailnadu India
Where was the first large-scale nuclear test site in the us?
The Pacific Test Range starting with Bikini Atoll in 1946 with Operation Crossroads. It eventually expanded to encompass Eniwetok Atoll, Johnston Island, and several other Islands and Atolls. The largest device tested was the Castle Bravo shot in 1954 at 15 Mtons. The Nevada Test Site north of Las Vegas started in 1951 as the official continental test site with Operation Ranger. The largest device tested was the Plumbob Pricilla shot in 1957 at 78 Ktons. The Plumbob series also included a failed underground "safety test" that launched its 4 inch thick steel "manhole cover" at a speed documented at greater than escape velocity, making it the first manmade object to launch from the earth's surface at greater than escape velocity (although it definitely melted from friction before leaving the atmosphere and fell back).
