Abstract: A three-span-continuous girder bridge has to be integrally lifted by 3 m to meet increased navigation capacity. This paper mainly introduces the lifting system mechanism, construction process, and bridge jack-up monitoring. ...

Abstract: An analytical solution is developed in this paper to investigate the vertical vibration of a pipe pile in viscoelastic soil. The soil is assumed to be a homogeneous and isotropic layer. The pipe pile is considered as a ...

Abstract: This paper presents the forensic analysis undertaken on two rehabilitation projects toward highlighting the cost savings achieved by implementing the optimum rehabilitation option and material made from these studies. ...

Abstract: Earthquakes have been found to seriously threaten the structure of tunnels. To study the seismic performance of a composite lining embedded in a saturated poroelastic half space under an incident P wave, an analytical model ...

Abstract: The embedded ratio of retaining structures and improved depth of ground at an excavation base are two key factors for the stability of deep excavation. For a collapsed excavation in soft clay in Hangzhou, China, a numerical ...

Abstract: Mitigating the ground vibration initiated by the passage of trains to safeguard the surrounding structures is a challenge for geotechnical engineers. Among various existing methods, open trenches are one of the most common ...

Abstract: The diaphragm wall is widely used in deep excavation engineering to guarantee the safety of the foundation pit and surrounding environment during excavation. An accurate prediction of the lateral deformation of the diaphragm ...

Abstract: In excavation engineering, most of the retaining structures are subjected to asymmetrical loads, including in asymmetrical excavation and asymmetrical overloading. However, a theoretical solution to, and deformation-controlling ...

Abstract: A series of model tests about vibroflotation were conducted to investigate soil property change on silica sand foundations, especially for earthquake-resistant behavior. First, the process of double-point vibroflotation ...

Abstract: It is necessary to fully understand the settlement of high-speed railway subgrade induced by train loading to ensure the operation safety of high-speed trains. A 1:7 reduced-scale model test was designed to investigate the ...
