CORE-LOC (trade name) Concrete Armor Units: Technical Guidelines
This report provides technical guidelines for a new type of concrete armor unit called CORE-LOC(TM) (hereafter referred to as core-loc), which was developed and patented worldwide by the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. Information is provided on core-loc geometry, stable weight estimation, armor layer thickness, and armor layer packing density. The use of core-loc as a repair unit for dolos armoring is discussed. Fabrication guidelines are provided, including a discussion of American standards for concrete, cement, and aggregates. Recommended standard core-loc sizes are discussed and tables are provided that suggest standardized core-loc sizes with their associated geometric relationships, hydraulic stability capacity, and structural requirements.
