RISEmbankment Design Method Combining Limit-State Approach with Stress-Path Application
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A rational design method for embankments on soft soils that takes care of both bearing capacity and stability mechanisms is proposed in this paper. Two types of embankment-construction techniques are used on soft soils: a ...
Free-Field Measurements to Disclose Lateral Reaction Mechanism of Piles Subjected to Soil Movements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil-pile interaction remains to be the most ambiguous yet one of the most crucial aspects in the design of laterally loaded soil-pile systems subjected to embankment-induced movements. This paper proposes a new method ...
