aleman on Nov-17-2005 at 08:33 PM RST @ 24.230.141.235 Lab I went to a meeting in Arlington, Texas a few weeks ago. The soils mechanics Lab set up a big display of all their testing stuff and their products. I think you would have been in heaven.

aleman on Nov-17-2005 at 08:38 PM RST @ 24.230.141.235 I did not know what any of it was Lab, I just kept nodding and smiling at them. They had some big photos of washed out dams that they had been examining. Mass soil movement poor compaction during construction not enough water added during the compaction stage of building the damn, soils with very low clay content, you could have joined right in AND THERE WERE SNACKS AND REFRESHMENTS!
