    Estimating Failure Probabilities for California Levees 

    Source: Journal of Geotechnical Engineering:;1983:;Volume ( 109 ):;issue: 002
    Author(s): James M. Duncan; William N. Houston
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: The probability of failure of California Delta levees was estimated using simple statistical procedures, based heavily on empirical data. Forty‐four islands were included in the study, and it was found that the probability ...

    Level Surveys and Patterns of Movement in Collapsible and Expansive Soils Studies 

    Source: Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities:;2017:;Volume ( 031 ):;issue: 001
    Author(s): Sandra L. Houston; William N. Houston
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: The demerits of level surveys for assessing foundation movements associated with moisture-induced volume change of soils have been well discussed and debated in the literature. In spite of the limitations of level surveys, ...

    Shear Strength and Shear-Induced Volume Change Behavior of Unsaturated Soils from a Triaxial Test Program 

    Source: Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering:;2008:;Volume ( 134 ):;issue: 011
    Author(s): Sandra L. Houston; Natalia Perez-Garcia; William N. Houston
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: A series of unsaturated soil triaxial tests were performed on four soils including sand, silt, and a low plasticity clay. Attempts were made to correlate unsaturated soil properties from these tests and data from the ...

    Prediction of Field Collapse of Soils Due to Wetting 

    Source: Journal of Geotechnical Engineering:;1988:;Volume ( 114 ):;issue: 001
    Author(s): Sandra L. Houston; William N. Houston; Donald J. Spadola
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: A series of oedometer tests are used to provide data for a quantitative prediction of soil collapse. A full scale field test is conducted to provide a benchmark for comparison with laboratory test results and predictions. ...

    Evaluation of In‐Place Wetting Using Soil Suction Measurements 

    Source: Journal of Geotechnical Engineering:;1993:;Volume ( 119 ):;issue: 005
    Author(s): Kenneth D. Walsh; William N. Houston; Sandra L. Houston
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: An evaluation of water sources and extent of wetting at a collapsible soil site is presented. The field and laboratory data were collected after distress of an existing structure was observed. The underlying soils at the ...

    Development of t-z Curves for Cemented Fine-Grained Soil Deposits 

    Source: Journal of Geotechnical Engineering:;1995:;Volume ( 121 ):;issue: 012
    Author(s): Kenneth D. Walsh; Sandra L. Houston; William N. Houston
    Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
    Abstract: Drilled shaft load-settlement analysis is frequently performed using load-transfer curves known as t-z curves. Many t-z curves are discussed in the literature, and are often used for approximate analyses. The peak skin ...
