Hoover水坝旁路被描述为显着，华丽，令人印象深刻，壮观，巨大的工程壮举。这是2010年10月完成的，这2.4亿美元土木工程项目花了几十年的密集计划和准备，需要六个机构管理财团的协调努力，并由三叉强调设计，安全和经济考虑。
民间工程师设计它们，景观建筑师厌恶他们，开发人员想知道为什么我们需要他们，市政工程师经常需要它们 - 我讨厌他们。保留和拘留池已成为 Stormwater Management 在大多数美国的商业和住宅项目上。它们最初用于防洪，后来还纳入水质要求。它们的能力为其恢复峰值流量的能力合理良好，但其有用性阻止到那里。以下是我不是拘留/保留池的粉丝的一些原因：
我一直在倡导和设计 Green 现在几年的基础设施和盖子解决方案。在那些年份，我听到的最常见的事情之一是“那么耗费我的东西？”假设总是越来越多的，经常他们期望它需要花费更多。幸运的是，它往往更便宜而不是更昂贵。尤其如此，土木工程（雨水基础设施，评分，停车场，景观设计等）。当我告诉他们将花费较少时，客户是自然的，所以他们的下一个陈述通常是“真的！？，多少钱？”。在回答那个问题时，我发现“嗯，这取决于”，并不总是飞，所以我已经汇集了几个green vs traditional design elements.

“Assessing the conditions of the nation’s public schools remains a difficult process,” says the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) in their 2009 Report Card for America's Infrastructure. The problem leading to this "D" grade seems to be funding. However, part of the problem is that we don’t know how much of a problem we have.

The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) includes Levees on its 2009 Report Card for America's Infrastructure, giving them a D–. The category of "Levees" covers major flood control works. However, what about the water that causes the flooding that levees protect against? Throughout drainage basins comprising thousands of square miles, stormwater runoff makes its way downstream. Obviously some systems convey that stormwater and even control it. ASCE says nothing about these storm sewer systems, but they form a vital part of America's infrastructure.

Buffalo Township’s wastewater treatment plant is located along Buffalo Creek in Pennsylvania, beneath the State Route 28 bridge. This type of wastewater treatment plant is perfect to serve smaller communities. It supports 6,000 people with 3,100 sewer connections to homes and businesses throughout Sarver, Pennsylvania, and the vicinity. It’s an excellent example of an efficient wastewater infrastructure that uses extended aeration to treat raw sewage, without any initial sedimentation.

减少、重用、回收。这是环保运动最简单的口号，也是全国家庭和小型项目的指导原则。该原理如何应用于基础设施，特别是沥青路面?我们已经尽可能少地使用沥青路面，但这更多是一个经济决定。我们回收沥青路面来建造新的路面。我们重新利用它作为清洁填充物。我们还能用它做什么?我们能用它收集太阳能吗?< / p > < / div >
美国的高速铁路（HSR）基础设施的持续开发将使人们能够迅速从城市到城市的旅行，并公司在较少时间内运送货运。然而，使HSR独特的是超出产品的推销，以提供新的运输方式。在美国开发美国的储备金基础设施。需要考虑各种施工方法和技术选择。 zach kent是加利福尼亚州海边的模块化湿地的雨水工程师。We learned about Modular Wetlands’ urban wetland unit in our case study, “Water Quality Retrofit and Retaining Wall Remediation.” We've partnered with Kent to provide a perspective on some dynamics within the stormwater management industry over the last decade, including new processes and technologies designed to meet higher regulatory standards. The City of Takoma Park, Maryland, needed to replace a failing retaining wall that supports a roadway in a small residential development. The Linden Avenue site is directly adjacent to Sligo Creek, which is a tributary of Anacostia Creek, a river undergoing a significant restoration effort. T. E. Scott & Associates, Inc., designed a replacement for the failing retaining wall infrastructure, created a pocket park for the local residents, and provided water quality treatment for the unmanaged watershed. This combination of aesthetic and environmental improvements adds value to the project. We’ll look at some stormwater flow design calculations, a storm water flow splitter, an urban modular wetland unit, a step/plunge pool, and an interesting retaining wall design. I just finished reading Stephen Flynn’s 2007 book "The Edge of Disaster: Rebuilding a Resilient Nation." For those who’ve been interested enough in infrastructure topics to find their way to the Operations Channel, I’d highly recommend this book. Flynn is more of a security expert than he is a construction specialist, but it is exactly this objective perspective which makes his focus on our infrastructure so valuable. He includes infrastructure shortfalls along with Jihadists and pandemics as major threats to our society. He sees our aging infrastructure beyond the bricks and mortar, as reducing our national flexibility, as vulnerable terrorist targets, and as economic liabilities for future generations. These add up to make our declining infrastructure a tangible national security issue that he’s rightly concerned about. 正如Watts it Matter to You?输电< / > < / em >,美国土木工程师学会(第3期)分配美国的< >强能源< / >强基础设施级的“<强> D + < / >强”的< a href = " http://www.infrastructurereportcard.org/fact-sheet/energy " target = " _self”> < em > 2009年成绩单对美国的基础设施< / em > < / >。“电力分配”解释了电力从发电设施到你的家庭或企业的路径的最后一步。它涵盖了电力事业的商业模式，配电基础设施如何驱动发电和传输决策，以及电能计量。< / p > < / div >
如 瓦特对你很重要？发电, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) assigned the United States’ ENERGY infrastructure a grade of “D+” on their 2009 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure. Electricity transmission, which is the second of three installments on energy, covers transmission lines and grid networks, “green” power transmission, and "smart" grids. Electricity distribution will be covered in installment three as we follow the path of electricity from a power generating facility to your home or business. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) assigned the United States’ ENERGY infrastructure a grade of “D+” on their 2009 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure. Electricity generation is the first of three installments on energy and covers nuclear, coal and natural gas, and hydro-electric power generating facilities. Electrical transmission and distribution will be covered in installments two and three as we follow the path of electricity from a power generating facility to your home or business. The goal is to provide an overview on how electrical power is delivered, including issues of current concern. 我追随的各种博客发给我新闻通讯，有关新智能桥技术的一篇文章去年周五引起了我的注意。一个“智能桥”可能更好地标记为一个谈话的桥梁 - 将其状态传达给正在聆听后续解释的人的状态。基线测量临界应变，偏转和腐蚀条件可以通过项目完成后的结构建立，然后在整个桥梁的使用寿命中监控。
