Evaluation of Pipe-Jacking Forces Based on Direct Shear Testing of Reconstituted Tunneling Rock Spoils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The installation of underground trunk sewer lines in the Tuang formation of Kuching City, Malaysia, used trenchless technology in the form of the pipe-jacking method. The evaluation of pipe-jacking forces mainly involves ...
Behavior of Pile Groups Subject to Excavation-Induced Soil Movement in Very Soft Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of centrifuge model tests was conducted to investigate the behavior of pile groups of various sizes and configurations behind a retaining wall in very soft clay. With a 1.2-m excavation in front of the wall, which ...
Interpretation of Geomaterial Behavior during Shearing Aided by PIV Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Several researchers have studied the behavior of particles during shearing to have better insight into the Mohr-Coulomb (MC) strength parameters. In most cases, the movements of particles along the shear band were studied ...
Ground and Groundwater Responses Due to Shaft Excavation in Organic Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Excavation of a 16-m deep shaft was suspended due to groundwater drawdown of about 4.5 m that led to nearby ground subsidence and settlement of infrastructure. As a remedial measure, a deep-ground recharge system ...
Severe Damage of a Pile Group due to Slope Failure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A pile group consisting of four cast-in-place concrete piles was instrumented to measure the induced bending moment along the piles due to excavation of an adjacent slope. The green field lateral soil movement profiles and ...
