Closure to “Piezometer Performance at Wildlife Liquefaction Site, California” by T. Leslie Youd and Thomas L. Holzer
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Hydraulic Resistance of Steel Sheet Pile Joints
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)Steel sheet pile joints are investigated to determine their permeability behavior. A suitable definition is obtained for the permeability. A testing rig is described and tests on 10 different joint filler materials are ... -
Role of Topography and Anisotropy When Selecting Unlined Pressure-Tunnel Alignment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)This paper shows how analytical solutions, proposed by the writers to predict in-situ stresses in rock masses with smooth and irregular topographies, can help in the selection of the alignment of unlined pressure tunnels ... -
Development of t-z Curves for Cemented Fine-Grained Soil Deposits
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)Drilled shaft load-settlement analysis is frequently performed using load-transfer curves known as t-z curves. Many t-z curves are discussed in the literature, and are often used for approximate analyses. The peak skin ... -
Engineering Properties of Diatomaceous Fill
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)It is common for fill that has a low dry density and high moisture content to have poor engineering properties, such as high compressibility and low shear strength. For the tested diatomaceous fill, the range in dry density ... -
Foundation Uniform Pressure and Soil-Structure Interaction
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Piezometer Performance at Wildlife Liquefaction Site, California
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Design of Landfill Leachate-Collection Filters

Closure to “Design of Landfill Leachate‐Collection Filters” by George R. Koerner and Robert M. Koerner
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Laboratory Modeling of Laterally-Loaded Drilled Shafts in Clay
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)The behavior of free-head rigid drilled shafts under static and cyclic lateral and moment loading was investigated using laboratory models in relatively large test chambers. This testing program represents perhaps one of ... -
Liquefaction Of Sand under Bidirectional Monotonic and Cyclic Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)A laboratory study is presented of the liquefaction behavior of sand subjected to bidirectional monotonic and cyclic simple shear loading conditions using a new bidirectional simple shear apparatus. Tests were performed ... -
Normalized Nondegrading Behavior of Soft Clay under Cyclic Simple Shear Loading
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)The Masing rules, often used in modeling the behavior of soils under cyclic loading, are unreliable when there is significant cyclic degradation of the soil-strain curves. In the present paper it is shown that degradation ... -
Liquefaction Resistance Using CPT and Field Case Histories
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)Relationships between cone penetration tip resistance and the liquefaction potential of sandy soils are presented to facilitate use of the cone penetration test (CPT) in liquefaction assessments. The relationships are based ... -
Aspects of Compaction Grouting of Liquefiable Soil
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)The purpose of this paper is to review available case-history data on the treatment of liquefiable soils by compaction grouting, and to provide observations that are useful in evaluating the effectiveness of future ... -
Spectral-Based Peak-Shear-Strength Criterion for Rock Joints
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)In general, roughness profiles of rock joints consist of nonstationary and stationary components. At the simplest level, only one parameter is necessary to quantify nonstationary joint roughness. To capture the nonstationary ... -
Profile and Frictional Capacity of Embedded Anchor Chains
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)Previously published methods for solving the force distribution and geometric profile of an embedded anchor chain involve numerical solution by an incremental integration technique. By rationalizing the problem, closed-form ... -
Closure to “Working Stress Design Method for Reinforced Soil Walls” by Mauricio Ehrlich and James K. Mitchell
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Working Stress Design Method for Reinforced Soil Walls

Closure to “Influence of Horizontal Stresses on Gilgai Landforms” by Britt Maxwell
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995) -
Modeling Lateral Sliding of Slope due to Liquefaction of Sand Layer
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)The stability of a soil slope is analyzed based on the experimental results of a centrifuge test. The failure mechanism recorded in the model test closely resembled that which occurred in the field. Excess pore pressure ...
