Analysis of Residual Stress Effects in Piles
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)A simple method is outlined for analyzing the residual stresses in a single pile following driving or jacking and for determining the subsequent axial load‐deformation behavior. It is found that the stiffness of the pile ... -

Uplift of Anchor Plates in Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)An investigation into the vertical uplift of anchor plates in a cohesionless medium is described. Factors investigated in relation to the load‐displacement response were the size and shape of plate, depth of embedment, ... -
Lateral Earth Pressure on Retaining Structure with Anchor Plates
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)An earth‐retaining structure that derives its stability from anchor plates placed in the backfill soil is described. The system has been used for railroad/highway bridge abutments and as earth‐retaining walls to contain ... -

Instrumentation for Test Fill in Hong Kong
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)An offshore test fill was constructed over very soft marine clay to help develop and prove construction techniques for a large proposed reclamation project. The fill and foundation soils were heavily instrumented to monitor ... -
Test Fill at Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)A test fill was constructed to evaluate the feasibility of a proposed airport reclamation over extremely soft marine clay. The test fill investigated the feasibility of reclaiming in layers to avoid creation of mudwaves ... -
Shear Strength of Prestressed Cohesive Soils
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)The results of an experimental investigation to determine the effects of preloading on the Mohr-Coulomb failure envelopes of cohesive soils are described. In situ shear tests using the Borehole Shear Test (BST) were performed ... -
