Finite-Element Analysis of Time Domain Reflectometry Cable-Grout-Soil Interaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Three-dimensional finite element analysis is combined with field and laboratory measurement of time domain reflectometry (TDR) cable-grout response to analyze the interaction between the cable, grout, and surrounding soil ...
Three-Dimensional Responses Observed in an Internally Braced Excavation in Soft Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Several three-dimensional effects were observed in the performance monitoring data collected during excavation for the Ford Engineering Design Center in Evanston, Illinois. The elevations of the soil around the excavation ...
Three-Dimensional Effects for Supported Excavations in Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of 150 finite-element simulations conducted to define the effects of excavation geometry, i.e., length, width, and depth of excavation, wall system stiffness, and factor of safety against ...
Evaluating Damage Potential in Buildings Affected by Excavations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Predicting building damage due to ground movements caused by excavations is an important design consideration when building in a congested urban environment. Current predictive approaches range from empirical methods to ...
