Torsional Resistance of Single Pile in Layered Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Analysis and mathematical solutions are presented for a torsionally loaded pile embedded in two-layered soil deposit assuming elastic behavior. Soil shear modulus is assumed to be constant in each layer or to vary linearly ... -

Discussion of “<i>Dilatometer Testing on Highly Overconsolidated Soils</i>” by Alireza Boghrat (May, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 5)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
Degradation of Marine Clays under Cyclic Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)A study of the effect of the overconsolidation ratio (OCR) on the cyclic shear modulus degradation of clay is presented. The research is based on a series of strain‐controlled, constant‐volume, cyclic, simple‐shear tests ... -
Uplift Load‐Displacement Behavior of Spread Foundations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The design of spread foundations for uplift loads is based primarily on capacity considerations, largely because there has been only a limited effort to characterize the load‐displacement response of these foundations. ... -
Centrifuge Modeling of Transport Processes for Pollutants in Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The physico‐chemical processes of advection, dispersion, adsorption, and degradation that control pollutant transport processes in groundwater are described. Dimensional analysis is presented, and the scaling requirements ... -
Closure to “<i>Uplift of Anchor Plates in Sand</i>” by E. J. Murray and J. D. Geddes (March, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 3)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
Lime‐Induced Heave in Sulfate‐Bearing Clay Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Expansive reactions between lime and sulfate‐bearing clay soils have attracted little attention until relatively recently. Lime treatment of Stewart Avenue in Las Vegas, Nevada, has induced heave in excess of 12 in. Heaved ... -
Overconsolidation Ratio of Clays from Penetration Pore Pressures
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)A method is proposed for evaluating the overconsolidation ratio in clays based on the distribution of dynamic pore pressure around a penetrating cone. For this purpose the pore-pressure measurements at or on the tip and ... -
Closure to “<i>Postconstruction Deformation of Rockfill Dams</i>” by Oscar Dascal (January, 1987, Vol. 113, No. 1)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -

(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
In‐Situ Shear Test of Soil‐Root Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)In situ shear tests were performed on soils reinforced by roots. Analytical models of soil‐root interaction presented in a companion paper were used to compute the forces in the roots and the contribution of the roots to ... -
Analyses of Dam Failures in 1985 Chilean Earthquake
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)During the Central Chile earthquake of 1985, two small dams suffered substantial embankment deformations indicating liquefaction and major strength loss in the embankment or foundation soils. However, the configuration of ...
