Corporate name TU Delft Date 2010-11-08 Abstract In this manual design rules and guidelines for the design of Polyurethane Bonded Aggregate revetments (PBA-revetments) are presented, based on results from laboratory research, full scale model tests, and experience and field measurements. Research is still ongoing, but from the first results some insight into the structural behaviour of PBA can be obtained. For the mechanisms that are most relevant to the design of the PBA-revetment, calculation methods are given to determine a minimum required layer thickness. To account for any uncertainties in the materials mechanical properties and behaviour, safe assumptions have been used for material parameters. Nonetheless, it is expected from the designer to apply these methods with caution, for each case checking if the assumptions are valid and relevant. Chapter 7 of this manual is dedicated to the remaining uncertainties and the assumptions that have been made. Also recommendations are given to minimize the risk in application of new materials. PBA-revetments are commercially available under the trade name Elastocoast, produced by Elastogran (BASF) Subject bonded permeable revetmentsrevetmentpolyurethaneelastocoast Classification TPG130450 To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:794095aa-3ca3-4f63-88cf-1f0edb65f84b Publisher Arcadis Source report 073962493 for Elastogran GmbH Part of collection Hydraulic Engineering Reports Document type report Rights © 2010 BASF - Elastogran Files PDF Polyurethane_bonded_revet ... manual.pdf 8.41 MB Close viewer /islandora/object/uuid:794095aa-3ca3-4f63-88cf-1f0edb65f84b/datastream/OBJ/view
