When designing embankments over soft soils, geotechnical engineers face many challenges. These include potential bearing failure, intolerable settlement, and global or local instability. Pile-supported embankments have been emerged as an effecti[...]

This paper focuses on the design and performance of a very tall mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall. Expansion of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport called for the construction of a third runway west of the two existing runways. A signifi[...]

In this paper, an analytical study considering the effect of uncertainties in the seismic analysis of geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) walls is presented. Using limit equilibrium method and assuming sliding wedge failure mechanism, analysis is[...]

An approach to quantify nonuniformity of compacted earth materials using spatially referenced roller-integrated compaction measurements and geostatistical analysis is discussed. Measurements from two detailed case studies are presented in which [...]

The paper presents the performance of four long-span deep-corrugated steel box culverts with spans of 8- and 14-m during backfilling, as well as comparisons with finite-element modeling and design codes. Two of the culverts were stiffened at the[...]

The comfort and safety of a moving train is largely determined by the dynamic response of the railway track and its foundation (i.e., subgrade). To study the dynamic stability of a silt subgrade subjected to train traffic loading with increasing[...]

Flow liquefaction is a major design issue for large soil structures such as mine tailings impoundments and earth dams. If a soil is strain softening in undrained shear and, hence, susceptible to flow liquefaction, an estimate of the resulting li[...]

A weighted-residual approach for differentiating one-dimensional discrete data is presented and applied to an experimental program in which distributions of bending moment were measured along a model pile foundation in a centrifuge test. The wei[...]

One important component in the design of tunnels in urban areas is a correct assessment of the interaction between the underground excavation with other structures in the vicinity. In this sense a correct stress-strain response by the model repr[...]

Piles composed of more than one material in their cross section have been used for more than 100 years. Originally this was limited to driven steel shell or pipe piles filled with portland-cement concrete. More recent developments include variou[...]

The seismic stability of slopes reinforced with a row of piles is analyzed using the kinematic theorem of limit analysis within the framework of the pseudostatic approach. An existing method which is based on the theory of plasticity is used to [...]

High-pressure isotropic compression tests were carried out on reconstituted sand samples that were reinforced with cement, randomly distributed fibers, or both, making comparisons with the unreinforced sand and conducting tests from a variety of[...]
