Evaluation of Soil Response to EPB Shield Tunneling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Earth pressure balance (EPB) shields can be operated so that soil is forced away from its face; this heaving process may cause smaller surface settlements than would result from tunneling, without inducing any initial ... -
Performance of a Stone Column Foundation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Vibro‐replacement stone columns were used to support a large wastewater treatment plant founded on up to 48 ft (15 m) of soft estuarine deposits. Support was required for distributed foundation stresses up to 3,000 psf ... -
Real and Apparent Relaxation of Driven Piles
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Relaxation, defined as a decrease in bearing capacity of driven piles with time after initial driving, has been observed to be a rare phenomenon in southern Canadian geotechnical conditions. It has been encountered by the ... -
Dynamic Behavior of Pile Groups in Inhomogeneous Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)An efficient method of analysis has been developed to determine the steady‐state dynamic response of vertically loaded piles and pile groups embedded in a soil stratum in which the stiffness increases linearly with depth. ... -
Effect of Initial Shear on Cyclic Behavior of Sand
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Drained and undrained cyclic torsional simple shear tests are conducted for saturated Ottawa sand with and without initial static shear applications. It was found from the experiment that when the tests were conducted under ... -
Closure to “<i>Basic Properties of Sand and Gravel Filters</i>” by James L. Sherard, Lorn P. Dunnigan, and James R. Talbot (June, 1984)

Comparison of Two Strength Criteria for Intact Rock
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Two broadly based empirical strength criteria have recently been proposed for intact rock. The first, which applies to intact rock and rock masses was presented by Hoek and Brown in 1980. The second, which applies to all ... -
Influence of SPT Procedures in Soil Liquefaction Resistance Evaluations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The purpose of this paper is to clarify the meaning of the values of standard penetration resistance used in correlations of field observations of soil liquefaction with values of -
Uncertainty of One‐Dimensional Consolidation Analysis
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The measured coefficient of consolidation, -

Liquefaction Resistance of Thickened Tailings
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A new method is presented for analysis of the potential for triggering liquefaction, i.e., a flow slide, in liquefiable soil masses. The method is based on the principle of steady state deformation. In conventional mine ... -
