Most of the existing methods for estimating settlements of footings in sand have been developed for either isolated square footings or for strip footings. The literature contains limited information on settlement analysis of rectangular footings[...]

Soil movements associated with slope instability induce shear forces and bending moments in stabilizing piles that vary with the buildup of passive pile resistance. For such free-field lateral soil movements, stress development along the pile el[...]

This paper presents experimental data on the variation of lateral earth pressure against a nonyielding retaining wall due to soil filling and vibratory compaction. Air-dry Ottawa sand was placed in five lifts and each lift was compacted to achie[...]
