Rock riprap replaces porous concrete slope protection at Santee-Cooper project
Porous concrete slabs on slopes of earth dams of Santee-Cooper project in South Carolina revealed erosion to depth of about 2 in.: it was decided to replace porous concrete by 24 to 42 in. rock riprap on 6 to 12 in. rock filter layer; illustrated description of breaking of concrete pavement and construction of riprap; 330,000 cu yd of solid rock had to be transported and placed.
