This manual applies to major subordinate commands, districts, and laboratories <br />having responsibility for the design of civil wolks projects. <br /> <br />3, General.

Basic theory is <br />presented as required to clarify presentation and where the state of the art, as found in standard <br />textbooks, is limited. In the design guidance, wllere possible, both laboratory and prototype <br />experimental test results have been correlated with current theory. <br /> <br />FOR THE COMMANDER: <br /> <br />GWeUlL <br /> <br />ROBERT L.
