Statistical Model of Boulder Size and Fraction
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)The presence of boulders in a soil stratum could pose problems during construction and affect satisfactory performance of a geotechnical system. Statistical description of boulders can be useful in assessing the reliability ... -

Compaction‐Induced Earth Pressures Under K0‐Conditions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)Analytical models and procedures are presented for the evaluation of peak and residual compaction‐induced lateral earth pressures either in the free field or adjacent to vertical, nondeflecting soil‐structure interfaces. ... -

Lateral Force‐Displacement Response of Buried Pipe
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The results of an experimental program to assess the response of buried pipes to lateral ground movements are presented. The effects of pipe depth, soil density, pipe diameter, and pipe roughness are considered, and test ... -
Moisture Curve of Compacted Clay: Mercury Intrusion Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)This study presents procedures with which one can predict the equilibrium water content, in-service, of a clayey pavement subgrade. Mercury intrusion and pore-size distribution of a specimen of the soil at the in-service ... -
Uplift Force‐Displacement Response of Buried Pipe
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The design of buried pipelines in areas of vertical ground movement is governed, in part, by the magnitude of the forces imposed on the pipe and the displacements at which they are developed. An experimental study of these ... -
Re‐Examination of Slide of Lower San Fernando Dam
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A major slide occurred in the upstream slope of the Lower San Fernando Dam immediately following the earthquake of February 9, 1971. Previous analyses of this slide have been based on evaluation of seismic shear stresses ... -
Strain Path Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The Strain Path Method provides an integrated and systematic framework for elucidating and predicting pile foundation behavior, interpreting in situ tests, assessing sampling disturbance effects and, in general, approaching ... -
Compaction Characteristics of River Terrace Gravel
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Large‐scale field and laboratory tests were carried out to investigate compaction characteristics of a river terrace gravel soil at the 120‐m high Sao Simao Dam in Brazil. The coarse fraction of the deposit was typically ... -

Hydraulic Conductivity of Two Prototype Clay Liners
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Two prototype liners were constructed at a site near Austin, Texas, using clays of low and high plasticity. The clays were compacted to 100% of standard Proctor density at a water content slightly wet of optimum using a ...
