Abstract: The pullout resistance of reinforcement is an important parameter in the design of reinforced earth structures. Existing design procedures consider the pullout resistance of reinforcement from axial pull. However, the ...

Abstract: The in situ density of compacted layers obtained from sand-cone test is commonly used to assess the quality of compaction of pavement layers. This test is tedious, time consuming, and sometimes not feasible to perform in ...

Abstract: Quality control for compaction of earth fills is commonly performed by measuring the in situ density using the sand cone method. In situ density measurements from sand cone testing are highly operator-dependent; in addition, ...
