Discussion of “<i>Settlement and Moisture Movement in Collapsible Soils</i>” by Mostafa El‐Ehwany and Sandra L. Houston (October, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 10)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Closure to “<i>Simple Procedure for Determining Cap‐Plasticity‐Model Parameters</i>” by Tien‐Kuen Huang and Wai‐Fah Chen (March, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 3)

Preliminary Design for NATM Tunnel Support in Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Design of tunnels constructed with the new Austrian tunneling method (NATM) is considered. With this method the tunnel is generally excavated using hand‐mining equipment and immediately supported with a continuous shell ... -
Dynamic Experiments on Two Pile Groups
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Field experiments are conducted on two groups of piles supporting rigid foundations and subjected to harmonic loading. The objective is to investigate the ability of linear elastic theories of pile‐group modeling to predict ... -
Strength Correlation Factor for Residual Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Complete weathering of parent rock has resulted in the formation of residual soils that cover most of the land area of Sri Lanka. The physiography of the island demands that new engineering structures be located on sloping ... -
Effective Cohesion for Compacted Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)When an unsupported chunk of compacted clay is placed in water, it will generally completely slake apart. However, if the sample is compacted over optimum and after the sample is allowed to cure, it may not slake apart. ... -
Closure to “<i>Building Response to Excavation‐Induced Settlement</i>” by Marco D. Boscardin and Edward J. Cording (January, 1989, Vol. 115, No. 1)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Empirical Estimation of Double‐Layer Repulsive Force between Two Inclined Clay Particles of Finite Length
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)In a clay-water-electrolyte system, there exists a double-layer repulsive force between the clay particles. In a recent study, the influence of the nonparallel orientation and the finite size of the clay particles are ... -
Generalized State Parameter for Partly Saturated Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)Studies on compressibility and shear strength aspects are the concern of many investigators concerned with partly saturated soils. In soil engineering connected with partly saturated soils, there are no approaches connecting ... -
Soil Suction‐Potential Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)A suction‐potential model based on the diffusion equation is proposed whereby the suction is predicted at all times and depths in terms of a parameter K and the initial values of suction -
Discussion of “<i>Postdensification Penetration Resistance of Clean Sands</i>” by A. Sridharan, N. S. V. V. S. J. Gandhi, and S. Suresh (April, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 4)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Discussion of “<i>Variability in Compaction Control</i>” by Iraj Noorany (July, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 7)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Discussion of “<i>Dynamic Response of Sand Reinforced with Randomly Distributed Fibers</i>” by Mohamad H. Maher and Richard D. Woods (Muly, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 7)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Erratum: “Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Structures” by Dov Leschinsky and Ralph H. Boedeker (October, 1991, Vol. 117, No. 10)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Discussion of “<i>Minimum Undrained Strength of Two Sands</i>” by J.‐M. Konrad (June, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 6)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992) -
Modeling Desiccating Behavior of Mine Tailings
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)A one‐dimensional model of the sedimentation and desiccation of high‐clay‐content, subaerially deposited tailings is described. The approach is semi‐empirical and predicts average density and water content of a layer of ... -
