Abstract: Design of column-supported embankments (CSE) requires the evaluation of global stability using the conventional limit equilibrium method (LEM). Yet, for CSEs using unreinforced concrete columns and load transferring geogrids, ...

Abstract: Lateral spreading analysis of column-supported embankments (CSEs) requires an understanding of lateral thrust distribution. This includes quantifying the portion of thrust that is resisted by tension in geosynthetic ...
