Description

The Federal Lands Highway Division of the Federal Highway Administration is the primary road-builder for the National Park Service, Forest Service, Wildlife Refuges, and several other government agencies. The roads constructed or rehabilitated by Federal Lands are generally low to medium volume roads. Rockery walls also known as Dry Stack walls are gravity walls that typically use rough onsite rocks stacked in an interlocking fashion with no mortar, concrete, or steel to retain cut or fill slopes. They are non-invasive and inexpensive wall types, and aesthetically they blend well into natural settings. A rationally based and tested design procedure is needed to provide designers and owners with the confidence that these structures can be used in modern highway engineering. Additionally, since these walls are assembled in-place in the field with local materials, appropriate construction materials, procedures, documentation and contract language needs to be established. Major tasks required are as follows: Review Standard of Design and Construction Practice and of Performance of Existing Walls; Prepare Design Guidelines; Prepare Construction and Maintenance Guidelines; Prepare A Final Report and an Implementation Plan.
