Rock for Erosion Control

Editor(s): Charles H. McElroy, David A. Lienhart

Examines the current technology used by scientists, geologists, engineers, and others to measure and evaluate the durability and performance of rock used for riprap, gabions, canal and channel linings, and other erosion control applications. State-of-the-art procedures used by construction and quarry personnel for specification conformance and compliance testing are also discussed. 13 peer-reviewed.
