Winner
of the 2005 IECA Excellence in Technology Award!!
It's
Here! E-SenSS (Environmentally Sensitive
Streambank Stabilization) features
such techniques as vegetated riprap bent-pole method,
cross vanes and double cross vanes, bendway weirs
and vanes with J-hooks.
E-SenSS
is the product of 3 years of intensive literature research,
case study analysis and DOT Surveys on 44 different
streambank treatments for application near highways.
The National Cooperative Highways Research Board (a division
of National Academy of Science) funded this research
for development of guidelines for environmentally-sensitive
techniques for Departments of Transportation across the
nation. The CD contains 44 technique guidelines, 19 Special
Topic documents, and a total of 56 technique typical
drawings in both AutoCAD and MicroStation format. Greenbank
is a rule-based selection system that relates the hydraulic,
geotechnical and environmental constraints of each technique
to site conditions and project constraints to provide
the user with a list of techniques applicable to the
project. These techniques suggestions are linked to the
relevant documents detailing specifics of the techniques.
