Abstract: The vacuum preloading combined flocculation and solidification method (VP-FSCM) has been proposed in recent years to increase the efficiency of high-water-content slurries. The characteristic of the strength development ...

Abstract: A combined retaining structure (CRS) that consists of numerous piles, a concrete platform, and a gravity retaining wall was built to support a high embankment constructed on a steep slope. In this study, the behavior of ...

Abstract: Rock faces prevent adequate calculation of the active earth pressure of retaining wall near rock faces via the Coulomb and Rankine theories. The research is based on differential slice method and soil arching; it proposes ...
