Titre : Resistance factors for use in load and resistance factor design of driven pipe piles in sands Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : K. C. Foye, Auteur ; G. Abou-Jaoude, Auteur ; M. Prezzi, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 1–13 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Load factors Limit states Foundation design Load and resistance factor design Driven piles Axial loads Cone penetration test Sand Résumé : Load and resistance factor design of foundations is done in the offshore industry and is now being done in bridge projects in the United States. Common methods used to establish resistance factors include calibration to assumed factors of safety and reliability analysis using field load test databases. Reliability analyses are the preferred tools for this work but the needed probabilistic information regarding design method uncertainty is difficult to obtain. Furthermore, field load test databases, while relatively attractive for assessing design uncertainty, are not able to discriminate between uncertainties caused by soil variability, test methods, and model design relationships. In contrast to previous efforts, this paper illustrates an approach to uncertainty assessment that seeks to isolate the various sources of uncertainty. Using this approach, reliability analysis is used to develop resistance factors for the design of driven pipe piles in sand. The resistance factor results are used to highlight some of the differences between design methods that are exposed by the proposed uncertainty assessment technique. A brief design example is also given that illustrates the use of the resistance factors.

Titre : CPT-Based Method for the Installation of Suction Caissons in Sand Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Marc Senders, Auteur ; Mark F. Randolph, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 14–25 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Suction Caissons Sand Cone penetration Installation Pumps Centrifuge models Résumé : A CPT-based method is presented for estimating the self-weight penetration and suction required during the installation of suction caissons in medium dense to dense sand. Existing methods, although fundamental in nature, suffer from the difficulty in estimating key input parameters such as an appropriate bearing factor for the tip resistance and frictional coefficients for skirt friction. Instead, the proposed method is based directly on the cone resistance profile, starting with the Det norske Veritas approach for calculating the installation resistance of skirted foundations. The approach is modified to include a simple linear reduction in end bearing on the skirt tips and internal friction with the level of suction, with those components of resistance assumed to reduce to zero once the suction reaches the critical level corresponding to hydraulic failure of the soil plug. The method is coupled with a seepage model so that, for a given pumping rate, the penetration and corresponding resistance can both be expressed as a function of time. Results of calculations with this complete model are shown to compare well with data from centrifuge model tests and with published data from suction caisson installations.

Titre : p-y criterion for rock mass Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Robert Liang, Auteur ; Ke Yang, Auteur ; Jamal Nusairat, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 26–36 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Drilled shafts Lateral loads Rock mass Deflection Résumé : Drilled shafts socketed in rock mass have been used frequently as a foundation system to support both vertical and lateral loads. Traditionally, the lateral interaction between the drilled shaft and the surrounding rock medium has been characterized by means of nonlinear p-y curves; however, there is a lack of well verified p-y criterion for rock mass. In this paper, a hyperbolic p-y criterion is developed based on both theoretical derivations and numerical (finite element) parametric analysis results. The methods for determining pertinent rock parameters needed for constructing the proposed p-y curves are presented in the paper. Two full-scale lateral load tests on large diameter, fully instrumented drilled shafts socketed in rock conducted by the writers, together with additional four load test results reported by Gabr et al. were used to validate the applicability of the proposed hyperbolic p-y curves for rock mass. The comparisons between the computed shaft responses (both deflections and bending moments) and the actual measured responses are considered acceptable.

Titre : Numerical study of the effect of foundation size for a wide range of sands Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nobutaka Yamamoto, Auteur ; Mark F. Randolph, Auteur ; Itai Einav, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 37–45 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sand Calcareous soils Silica Shallow foundations Size effect Finite element method Numerical analysis Résumé : This paper presents a numerical investigation of the effect of foundation size on the response of shallow circular foundations on siliceous and calcareous sands. The study is based on the predictive capabilities of the MIT-S1 soil model for simulating both the compression and shear behaviors of natural sands over a wide range of densities, K0 values and confining pressures. The paper highlights the variations in the deformation mechanisms for the siliceous and calcareous sands cases. The assessment of the bearing capacity factor, Nγ , is examined, showing a dramatic decrease in the values with increasing foundation size for the case of footings on calcareous sands, eventually converging to a terminal Nγ value. At this stage the sand resistance is insensitive to variations in initial density and foundation size because the sand tends to loose its initial characteristics due to grain crushing, leading the material rapidly toward ultimate conditions. In the silicious sand case, it is found that, eventually, for extremely large footing diameters, the deformation mechanism progresses toward a punching shear mechanism, rather than the classical rapture pattern accompanied by surface heave as employed in current bearing capacity equations. A dimensional transition between the failure mechanisms can clearly be defined, referred to as a “critical size” in the Nγ –D relationship.

Titre : Zero-displacement lateral spreads, 1999 Kocaeli, Turkey, earthquake Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : T. Leslie Youd, Auteur ; Daniel W. DeDen, Auteur ; Bray, Jonathan D., Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 46–61 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Earthquakes Liquefaction Displacement Turkey Fine-grained soils Coarse-grained soils Résumé : Three potential lateral spreads exhibited negligible displacements during the 1999 Kocaeli, Turkey Earthquake (Mw=7.5) even though they were located within 7km of the fault rupture. These spreads are analyzed to verify and augment current procedures for predicting liquefaction resistance and lateral spread displacement. The sites include Çark Canal and Cumhuriyet Avenue in Adapazari, underlain by fine-grained sediment, and Degirmendere Nose adjacent to Izmit Bay, a steeply sloping area underlain by moderately dense silty sand. The plasticity index and moisture content criteria of Bray and Sancio set forth in 2006 indicate that much of the fine-grained sediment is liquefiable. Even though liquefaction likely occurred, lateral spreading did not occur due either to the dilative nature of fine-grained, sandlike sediments or the inherent strength of claylike sediments. Corrected blow counts, (N1)60 , in moderately dense sand at Degirmendere Nose range from 15 to 25 blows/ 30cm , indicating that liquefaction should have occurred but that the silty sand was too dense and dilative to deform. This finding is consistent with the MLR procedure of Youd et al. set forth in 2002 that identifies liquefiable sands with (N1)60 greater than 15 blows/ 30cm as resistant to lateral spread during earthquakes with M<8 .

Titre : Effect of soil permeability on centrifuge modeling of pile response to lateral spreading Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lenart, González, Auteur ; Tarek Abdoun, Auteur ; Ricardo Dobry, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 62–73 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Centrifuge Pile foundations Earthquakes Liquefaction Soil permeability Bending moments Limit equilibrium Résumé : This paper presents experimental results and analysis of six model centrifuge experiments conducted on the 150g−ton Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute centrifuge to investigate the effect of soil permeability on the response of end-bearing single piles and pile groups subjected to lateral spreading. The models were tested in a laminar box and simulate a mild infinite slope with a liquefiable sand layer on top of a nonliquefiable layer. Three fine sand models consisting of a single pile, a 3×1 pile group, and a 2×2 pile group were tested, first using water as pore fluid, and then repeated using a viscous pore fluid, hence simulating two sands of different permeability in the field. The results were dramatically different, with the three tests simulating a low permeability soil developing 3–6 times larger pile head displacements and bending moments at the end of shaking. Deformation observations of colored sand strips, as well as measurements of sustained negative excess pore pressures near the foundations in the “viscous fluid” experiments, indicated that an approximately inverted conical zone of nonliquefied soil had formed in these tests at shallow depths around the foundation, which forced the liquefied soil in the free field to apply its lateral pressure against a much larger effective foundation area. Additional p-y and limit equilibrium back-analyses support the hypothesis that the greatly increased foundation bending response observed when the soil is less pervious is due to the formation of such inverted conical volume of nonliquefied sand. This study provides evidence of the importance of soil permeability on pile foundations response during lateral spreading for cases when the liquefied deposit reaches the ground surface, and suggests that bending response may be greater in silty sands than in clean sands in the field. Moreover, the observations in this study may serve as basis for realistic practical engineering methods to evaluate pile foundations subjected to lateral spreading and pressure of liquefied soil.

Titre : Seismic displacement criterion for soil retaining walls based on soil strength mobilization Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : C.-C. Huang, Auteur ; S.-H. Wu, Auteur ; H.-J. Wu, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 74–83 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Seismic effects Displacement Retaining walls Soil structures Soil stabilization Résumé : This paper presents a seismic displacement criterion for conventional soil retaining walls based on the observations of a series of shaking table tests and seismic displacement analysis using Newmark’s sliding-block theory taking into account internal friction angle mobilization along the potential failure line in the backfill. A novel approach that relates the displacement of the wall and the mobilized friction angle along the shear band in the backfill is also proposed. A range of horizontal displacement-to-wall height ratios (δ3h∕H) between 2 and 5% representing a transitional state from moderate displacement to catastrophic damage were observed in the shaking table tests on two model retaining walls. This observation is supported by both Newmark’s displacement analysis and a new approach that relates the movement of the wall to the mobilization of the friction angle along the shear band in the backfill. A permissible displacement of the wall as defined by the displacement-to-wall height ratio, namely, δ3h∕H , equal to 2% was found to be of practical significance in the sense that peak friction angle of the investigated sand is retained along the shear band in the backfill. It is also suggested that δ3h∕H=5% be used as a conservative indicator for the onset of catastrophic failure of the wall associated with fully softened soil strength along the shear band in cohesionless backfill.

Titre : CPT-based probabilistic soil characterization and classification Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : K.

Currently available semiempirical methods exhibit a significant variability in the estimation of soil type. Within the confines of this paper it is attempted to present a new probabilistic cone penetration test (CPT)-based soil characterization and classification methodology, which addresses the uncertainties intrinsic to the problem. For this purpose, a database composed of normalized corrected cone tip resistance (qt,1,net) , normalized friction ratio (FR) , fines content (FC), liquid limit (LL), plasticity index (PI), and soil type based on the unified soil classification system was complied. Soil classification was performed by laboratory testing of the standard penetration test disturbed samples retrieved from the boreholes within mostly 2m of each CPT hole. The resulting database was probabilistically assessed through Bayesian updating methodology allowing full and consistent representation of relevant uncertainties, including (1) model imperfection; (2) statistical uncertainty; and (3) inherent variability. As a conclusion, different sets of FC, LL, PI, and A -line boundary curves along with a new CPT-based, simplified soil classification scheme are proposed in the qt,1,net and FR domain. Probabilistic uses of the proposed models are illustrated through a set of illustrative examples.

Titre : Effect of loading mode on strain softening and instability behavior of sand in plane-strain tests Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : J. Chu, Auteur ; D. Wanatowski, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 108–120 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sand Laboratory tests Plane strain Strain softening Résumé : Experimental data to study the effect of loading mode on the strain softening and instability behavior of sand under plane-strain conditions are presented in this paper. A new plane-strain apparatus was adopted to conduct K0 consolidated drained and undrained tests under both deformation-controlled and load-controlled loading modes. The drained behavior of very loose and medium dense sand and the undrained behavior of very loose sand under plane-strain conditions were characterized. The test results show that the loading mode affects the postpeak behavior and controls whether strain softening or instability will occur in the postpeak region. Shear bands occurred in tests conducted on medium dense sand, but not in tests for very loose sand. The failure line and critical state line are not affected by the loading mode.

Mots-clés : Sand Laboratory tests Plane strain Strain softening Résumé : Experimental data to study the effect of loading mode on the strain softening and instability behavior of sand under plane-strain conditions are presented in this paper. A new plane-strain apparatus was adopted to conduct K0 consolidated drained and undrained tests under both deformation-controlled and load-controlled loading modes. The drained behavior of very loose and medium dense sand and the undrained behavior of very loose sand under plane-strain conditions were characterized. The test results show that the loading mode affects the postpeak behavior and controls whether strain softening or instability will occur in the postpeak region. Shear bands occurred in tests conducted on medium dense sand, but not in tests for very loose sand. The failure line and critical state line are not affected by the loading mode. The study also shows that the concept of a unique “ultimate state” for both dense and loose sand as previously established based on conventional drained triaxial tests is not supported by the plane-strain data.

Titre : Coupled thermohydromechanical modeling of the full-scale in situ test “prototype repository” Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : G. J. Chen, Auteur ; A. Ledesma, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 121–132 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Radioactive wastes Coupling Numerical analysis Rocks Backfill Comparative studies Predictions Bentonite Résumé : The Prototype Repository project represents a full-scale in situ test of the Swedish concept for high level radioactive waste disposal in deep geological repositories, being conducted at the underground Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory and managed by SKB (Swedish Agency for Radioactive Waste Disposal). Instead of canisters with radioactive material, heaters installed in cylindrical containers surrounded by compacted bentonite have been used in the test. A large number of thermohydromechanical parameters for materials used in the test were carefully determined based on the latest laboratory experiments and site investigation. After comparison among six simulation models, some valuable conclusions are made about the interaction effects of six deposition holes and the effects of thermohydrogas–mechanical coupling. A three-dimensional coupled thermohydraulic model was selected for the prediction of temperature, whereas an axisymmetric two-dimensional coupled thermohydromechanical model was selected for the prediction of relative humidity and stresses for the system of heater–bentonite–near rock. Selected results of temperature, relative humidity, and total stress are presented and discussed, and the agreement between the compared variables highlights the ability of the developed models to reproduce the complex coupled processes involved in the test.

Titre : Structural assessment of a concrete dam based on uplift pressure monitoring Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : C. Bernstone, Auteur ; M. Westberg, Auteur ; J. Jeppsson, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 133–142 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Dams Concrete Uplift pressure Structural reliability Monitoring Résumé : The context of structural monitoring of concrete dams as part of hydropower assets management is described. A tool that fits well into this context is the control of the uplift pressure of concrete dams. A monitoring technique suitable for this purpose was developed based on an automated water-level measurement technique using time-domain reflectometry and standard air-dielectric coaxial cable sensors. The signal is interpreted automatically by applying a threshold method to determine the apparent water level, which is then used to calculate the uplift pressure. A field test at a concrete dam column displayed consistent results, which were used as input to a reliability-based stability safety analysis. The results show that this technique can be very useful for uplift pressure monitoring. The information determined can serve as input to the maintenance work as well as assist engineering decisions.

Titre : Quantification of cable deformation with time domain reflectometry : implications to landslide monitoring Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Chih-Ping Lin, Auteur ; Shr-Hong Tang, Auteur ; Wen-Chin Lin, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 143–152 Note générale : Geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Deformation Slope stability Displacement Cables Landslides Monitoring Résumé : Time domain reflectometry (TDR) technology has become a valuable tool for detecting displacements and locating shear planes in rock or soil slopes. It is based on transmitting an electromagnetic pulse into a coaxial cable grouted in rock or soil mass and watching for reflections of this transmission due to cable deformity induced by the ground deformation. Early detection of localized shear deformation in soft soils and quantifying the shear displacement using TDR remains a challenging work. The TDR response due to localized shear deformation is affected by cable resistance, soil-grout-cable interaction, and shear bandwidth. A comprehensive TDR wave propagation model considering cable resistance is introduced to model TDR response to cable deformity. Effects of the influencing factors on the relationship between the reflection spike and the shear displacement are investigated through laboratory tests and numerical simulations. The implications to enhancing TDR response and quantifying shear displacement are stressed. Practical suggestions are made, including procedure for correcting resistance effect, selection of cable and grout, and how to quantify shear displacement using TDR.
