Centrifuge Study of Faulting Effects on Tunnel
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)If a tunnel crosses a geological fault which is considered to be active, the possibility of a displacement in the fault must be accounted for in the tunnel design. When the tunnel is embedded in soil, the assessment of the ... -
Dynamic and Static Testing in Soil Exhibiting Set‐Up
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)Pile foundation studies were conducted on four types of steel piles driven through estuarine deposited soils and into a highly variable glacial deposit to total depths of 33–48 m (110–156 ft). Twenty piles were subjected ... -
Observed Performance of a Deep Excavation in Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)A test section was established next to a 40‐ft‐deep, braced excavation in soft to medium‐stiff, saturated clays in Chicago, Ill. Surface and subsurface three‐dimensional ground movements, pore water pressures, sheet‐pile ... -
Soil‐Sheet Pile Interaction in Vibro‐Piling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)The study of skin friction developed in the present article falls within the scope of research work on high‐frequency vibro‐piling (1,500 to 3,000 Hz). Our laboratory measurements performed thus far have concerned the ... -
Critical Filters for Impervious Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)Final results of an extensive laboratory research program on “critical” downstream filters in embankment dams with impervious sections are presented. The investigation was carried out at the Soil Mechanics Laboratory, ... -

Reinforced Earth and Adjacent Soils: Centrifuge Modeling Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)Data are presented for thirty-three geotechnical centrifuge models of reinforced soil retaining walls in which the effects on wall behavior of foundation and retained fill are studied. The results indicate that the retained ... -

Cyclic Axial Loading Analysis of Piles in Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)This paper develops an analysis for the behavior of a single pile or symmetrical pile group in sand under cyclic axial loading. The analysis allows consideration of the effects of degradation of skin friction, base resistance ... -
Lateral Wall Deflections of Braced Excavations in Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)The lateral deflections of sheetpile or diaphragm walls are often used to evaluate the performance of braced excavations. This paper examines the influence of a number of factors affecting the lateral deflections of strutted ... -
Distortion of Steel Tanks Due to Settlement of Their Walls
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)The relationship between settlements and lateral deflections of the walls of floating‐roof steel tanks, and methods that can be used to estimate lateral wall deflections, are the main focus of this paper. As the walls of ... -
One‐Dimensional Lagrangian Consolidation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)In the case of a mixed Spatial and Material description of Large-Deformation Consolidation, it is shown that if the geometry is updated through an expression for the velocity of solids, then the complete Lagrangian description ... -
