Anisotropic Hardening Plasticity Model for Sands
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)An anisotropic hardening plasticity model based on the concept of bounding‐surface plasticity is formulated for prediction of the three‐dimensional stress‐strain‐volume‐change behavior of sand. The model employs the ... -
Analysis of Performance of Pile Groups Adjacent to Deep Excavation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)Analyses and performance of groups of step‐tapered piles located adjacent to a 50‐ft‐deep tieback excavation are described. The excavation is made through primarily granular soils within an existing framed structure. The ... -
Modified Vlasov Model for Beams on Elastic Foundations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)Realizing the inadequacy of the classical Winkler model to represent an elastic continuum, Vlasov and Leont'ev developed a two‐parameter model for a beam on an elastic foundation. The Vlasov model required an estimation ... -
Expansion of Compacted Gravelly Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)The primary factors governing the expansion of a compacted clayey soil are the amount and activity of the clay particles. In many cases, the compacted soil may contain gravel-sized particles that, by themselves, will not ... -
Effect of Footing Shape on Behavior of Cantilever Retaining Wall
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)Reinforced concrete cantilever retaining walls bearing on soil usually have a shear key incorporated into their footing base. The intended function of the key is to increase the sliding resistance of the wall. A study of ... -

Uplift Behavior of Screw Anchors in Sand. II: Hydrostatic and Flow Conditions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)The behavior of model single‐pitch screw anchor installed in dense sand subjected to hydrostatic pressure or upward seepage flow is presented. The experimental setup described in a companion paper was modified to allow ... -
Discussion by “<i>Interaction of Geology, Construction Practice, and Foundation Design</i>” by William S. Gardner (June 1989, ASCE Foundation Engineering Conference, held at Evanston, Ill., and published in <i>Foundation Engineering: Current Principles and Practices</i>, by ASCE, New York, N.Y., 1989, pp. 1552–1577)

Performance of Strip Footing on Stratified Soil Deposit with Void
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)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. ... -
Stress Ratio Effects on Collapse of Compacted Clayey Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)A“double‐triaxial” test procedure similar to the double‐oedometer test was developed to determine the wetting‐induced collapse potential of soils subjected to anisotropic stress states. Based on a series of double‐triaxial ... -
Passive Inclined Anchorages in Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)There are various forms of soil anchor that rely on passive resistance and/or skin friction to resist inclined tension loads arising from their use as structural components. This note outlines the observed behavior of deep ... -
Uplift Behavior of Screw Anchors in Sand. I: Dry Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)Experimental and theoretical investigations on the behavior of single‐screw helical anchors in sand are presented. A testing program included 56 tests conducted on five model anchors installed in dense, medium, and loose ...
