Abstract: In recent years, new seismic design methods for gravity retaining walls, based on the earthquake‐induced permanent displacement of the wall, have been proposed. These methods generally ignore the effects of ground motion ...

Abstract: In some cut-slope projects landslide is a common problem during construction due to unfavorable geomorphological and geomechanical conditions. It is necessary to do a quantitative assessment of the risk posed by landslide ...

Abstract: There are clear advantages in the establishment of reliable, direct cone penetration test (CPT) based methods for assessment of the axial capacity of driven piles. These advantages motivated the formation of a joint industry ...
