Strength and Deformational Characteristics of Foamed Bitumen Mixes under Suboptimal Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of foamed bitumen contents on the strength and deformational behavior of foamed bitumen mixes used for road pavements is very complex and not fully understood yet. While some writers report an increase in ...
Monotonic and Cyclic Simple Shear Response of Well-Graded Sandy Gravel Soils from Wellington, New Zealand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake, liquefaction of gravelly soils from reclaimed fills occurred in CentrePort, Wellington, New Zealand. This study presents constant volume monotonic and cyclic simple shear tests on well-graded ...
Vs-Based Evaluation of Select Liquefaction Case Histories from the 2010–2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence included a number of events that triggered recurrent soil liquefaction at many locations in Christchurch, New Zealand. However, the most severe liquefaction was induced by the ...
