Abstract: A study of the seismic behavior of rigid-faced reinforced soil-retaining walls subjected to scaled earthquake ground motions is presented in this paper. A numerical model was developed and validated to simulate the ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of a numerical model for simulating the shaking table tests on wrap-faced reinforced soil retaining walls. Some of the physical model tests carried out on reinforced soil retaining walls ...

Abstract: This paper presents the evaluation of the optimum mixing ratio of sand-tire chips (STC) mixtures based on void ratio and shear-strength properties. Locally available sand and tire chips of

Abstract: A series of laboratory model tests was performed to investigate the behavior of geosynthetic reinforced stiff clay foundation systems under circular loading. The footing consisted of a rigid circular steel plate with a ...

Abstract: This paper presents the evaluation of the optimum mixing ratio of sand-tire chips (STC) mixtures based on void ratio and shear-strength properties. Locally available sand and tire chips of 20×10  mm size are adopted. ...
