Recycled Asphalt Pavements - Kossuth County Iowa, HR-176, 1975

Kossuth County is located in North Central Iowa bordering on the State of Minnesota. It is the largest county in Iowa consisting of 28 congressional townships. The population of the county is 23,000 of which 11,000 people live in the rural area. There are 13 towns located in the county with the county seat, Algona, being the largest with a population of 6,100. Major industry of the area is grain farming with some beef and hog production. Naturally, where there is good grain farm land it follows that there is poor soil available for road construction and pavements. However, below the 3 to 4 feet of good farm land of Kossuth there is present a good grade of clay soil which does make an adequate base for surfacing when placed and compacted on top of the roadbed. As early as 1950, the then Kossuth County Engineer, H.M. Smith, embarked on a program of stage construction in building new grades and pavements. The goal of his program was primarily to conserve the county's rapidly dwindling supply of surfacing materials, and also, to realize the side effects of providing smooth and dustless roads for the public. Engineer Smith was fully aware of the poor soils that existed for road construction, but he also knew about the good clay that lay below the farm soil. Consequently, in his grading program he insisted that road ditches be dug deep enough to allow the good clay soil to be compacted on top of the roadbed. The presence of the compacted clay on top of the road resulted in a briding affect over the farm soil. The stage construction program satisfied the objectives of aggregate construction and dust control but did generate other problems which we are now trying to solve as economically as possible.

Current Population Reports Series P-26, Federal-State cooperative program for population estimates, September 1975

This report presents population estimates for July 1, 1973 and provisional estimates for July 1, for counties and metropolitan areas prepared under the auspices of the Federal State Cooperative Program for Local Population Estimates. The objective of this program. is the development and publication of State - prepared estimates of the population of counties using uniform procedures largely standardized for data input and methodology. The methods used have been mutually agreed upon by the individual States and the Bureau of the Census on the basis of a test of methods against the 1970 census. For a more detailed description of the program.

Memoria oral y alimentación: estrategias de supervivencia durante la Guerra Civil Española (1936-1939) y la posguerra (1939-1955)

El principal objetivo de nuestro tra bajo es delimitar las prácticas de reciprocidad que se llevaron a cabo durante el período de tiempo analizado y que permitieron reproducirse socialmente a los grupos menos favorecidos por la guerra y la posguerra . Nuestro análisis demuestra que la alimentación es un sistema de comuni - cación mediante el cual se crean o mantienen prácticas de poder , así como expre - siones de identidad y/o defensa o ruptura de las normas morales que comparte un grupo social .

Evaluation of Lime as an Additive to Soil-Asphalt Stabilization, HR-1, Progress Report, 1961

This report presents the results of a limited investigation of the use of lime as an auxiliary additive for improving the stabilization of soils with cutback asphalts. It is felt that the data obtained presents additional information on the subject of asphalt stabilization

Pinpointing Suspect Triplicate Unconfined Compressive Strength Values in a Series of Soil-Additive Strength Determinations, HR-1, Progress Report, 1961

In recent years, various types of organic and inorganic materials have been investigated for use as soil stabilizing agents in the construction of highways and airports. Since the properties and environmental conditions of soils vary so greatly from place to place, a stabilizing agent that is suitable for one type of soil may not be satisfactory for another. As a result, it is often desirable to evaluate several stabilizing agents under varying treatment conditions before deciding on a specific one to be used with a given soil. In addition many research programs have been initiated which investigate the effects of these stabilizing agents upon soils.

Corrosion of Steel in CRCP, HR-1004, 1975

The Materials and Research Departments cooperated in planning and performing Research Project HR-1004 during the summer of 1974. The Research Department agreed to accept responsibility for the final report; it has been delayed because of our efforts to obtain a maximum amount of information from the data by means of various statistical analyses. This memorandum contains all of the data, hopefully in a manner that will permit you to proceed with your consideration of an experimental project using cathodic protection for the CRCP steel. A more detailed report will be prepared at a later date.

El model de propaganda com a arma: Estudi de la creació i direcció de la opinió pública en la guerra d’Iraq del 2003

Scientia Potentia est, que traduït, vindria a significar “la informació és poder”.Aquest tòpic que, de ben segur, hem escoltat un miler de vegades és una expressió que hem acabat assimilant.De fet, ens trobem en una època que, el sociòleg Manuel Castells, defineix com l’era de la informació. Una època marcada per les noves tecnologies i el seu augment desfermat, tant quantitatiu com qualitatiu, que permet, o provoca, un ritme de transmissió, i de vida, molt més elevat.És una època en la que els constants fluxos d’informació, han comportat que la globalització, és a dir, l’increment de la interconnexió entre diferents societats, hagi assolit quotes extraordinàries.Estem saturats d’informació i, tot i així, desinformats, ja que és pot convertir en una tasca àrdua destriar allò que ens pot valer o interessar.
