Soil Resistances to Embedded Anchor Chain in Soft Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)This paper presents a method to calculate the chain tension at the anchor point and the chain configuration inside the soil for an anchoring system consisting of a pile with an embedded connection between the anchor pile ... -
Experimental p‐y Model for Submerged, Stiff Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)A series of full‐scale, cyclic, lateral load tests on instrumented piles of varying diameter at a test site in submerged, overconsolidated clay is described. A -
Building Response to Excavation‐Induced Settlement
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)Analytic models and field data are used to develop procedures to evaluate the tolerance of brick‐bearing‐wall and small frame structures to the ground displacements that develop during opencutting and tunneling. The role ... -
Permeability of Clays Under Organic Permeants
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)A magnesium montmorilionite and a kaolinite clay are subjected to organic and inorganic permeants to study the changes in permeability caused by the reaction between clays and permeants. The permeants are acetic acid, ... -
Skin Friction of Driven Piles in Calcareous Sands
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)The skin friction mobilized along the shaft of driven precast concrete piles in dense calcareous sands was determined by field tests on two piles at one site in Kuwait. The results are compared with data obtained from tests ... -
Vertical Vibration of Machine Foundations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)A perturbation technique, the method of multiple scales, is used to obtain an approximate analytical solution of the nonlinear dynamic response of foundations on soils. The analysis takes into account the nonlinearity of ... -
Improved Filter Criterion for Cohesionless Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1989)The capability of filters to retain cohensionless base soils is studied through a combination of a physical model of soil particle transport and statistical analysis of laboratory data. It is found that the ratio DF15/DB85, ... -

Uplift Testing of Model Anchors
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The results of model tests of 18 ground anchors vertically buried in sand are described in this paper. Also described are tests on half‐section model anchors which were tested to observe movement and behavior during uplift ... -
Measured and Predicted Axial Response of 98 Piles
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)This article deals with the prediction of the response to monotonic axial loading of single piles in various soil conditions. A 98‐pile load test data base was obtained from the Mississippi State Highway Department and was ... -
Set of Constitutive Models for Soils Under Slow Movement
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Materially objective, rate‐type constitutive relations are presented for creeping soil. The soil is treated either as a non‐Newtonian viscous fluid or a saturated mixture of an inviscid interstitial fluid and a non‐Newtonian ... -
Vertical and Torsional Vibration of Foundations in Inhomogeneous Media
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)A study of the dynamic impedances for radially inhomogeneous, infinite viscoelastic layers with a circular hole, and for piles embedded in a medium represented by such layers is made. Systems in vertical and torsional modes ... -
Lateral Load Analysis of Nonlinear Piles
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Analysis of the response of pile foundations to lateral loads requires accurate characterization of the behavior of the pile and the soil surrounding the pile. The common assumption of pile linearity in bending may not be ... -
