ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Discussion of “Interference of Two Closely Spaced Strip Footings on Sand Using Model Tests” by J. Kumar and M. K. Bhoi
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Bearing Capacity of Strip Footing above Void
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The bearing capacity behavior of strip footing located above a continuous void in silty clay soil was investigated experimentally and analytically. The experiment was performed in a test tank which contained a compacted ...
Stability of Spread Footing Above Void in Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stability of spread footing situated above a continuous void was investigated. The study involved a theoretical analysis and a model footing testing. The theoretical analysis was made using the finite element method ...
Closure to “<i>Soil Compaction and Permeability Prediction Models</i>” by M. C. Wang and C. C. Huang (December, 1984, Vol. 110, No. 6)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Effect of Underground Void on Foundation Stability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effect of underground void on the stability of shallow foundation supported by a compacted clay was investigated by using a three‐dimensional finite element computer program. The clay soil was a commercially available ...
Collapse Load of Strip Footing Above Circular Void
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equations relating collapse footing pressure with soil strength property and void conditions for strip footings centered above continuous circular voids are developed using the upper bound theorem of limit analysis. Results ...
Performance of Strip Footing on Stratified Soil Deposit with Void
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The performance of strip footings on a homogeneous soil and a stratified deposit containing two soil layers both with and without a continous void is investigated. Various factors affecting footing performance are analyzed. ...
Active Length of Laterally Loaded Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The active length of single free-head vertical piles, subjected to lateral pulse loadings at the pile head was analyzed by using the method of direct analysis. Direct analysis employs the numerical approach based on the ...
Permeability Behavior of a Water Treatment Sludge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The permeability behavior of an alum water‐treatment sludge and treated separately with a slaked lime and a fly ash was investigated and compared with untreated sludge. The treatment level was 60% by dry weight of sludge. ...
Runoff in Shallow Soils under Laboratory Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Laboratory experiments of runoff production in shallow soils were conducted on plots consisting of a bedrock layer, an intermediate soil layer, and a crushed stone cover layer. Artificial rainfall was supplied in varying ...
