Laboratory measurement & field assessment of residual shear strength with reference to soil deposits in the Bath-Bristol region / Salim Kouloughli

Public ISBD Titre : Laboratory measurement & field assessment of residual shear strength with reference to soil deposits in the Bath-Bristol region Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Salim Kouloughli, Auteur ; A. Clarke, Directeur de thèse Editeur : Bath : [s.n.] Année de publication : 1984 Importance : 79 f. Présentation : ill. Format : 29 cm Note générale : Master thesis : Civil engineering : University of Bath : 1984 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Laboratory  measurement Field  assessment Reference Soil  deposits Bath-Bristol  region Index. décimale : Ms01584 Résumé : In his introduction to the english translation of alexandre collin's book on 'landslides in clay strata' (1846) skempton (1956) pointed out that the understanding of the mechanism of landslides has been a slow process which first commenced with coulomb's demonstration of the friction strength characteristics of granular materials (1773). However, with the recognition of the importance of pre-existing shear discontinuities occuring in areas of old landslips, the use of residual strength helped to 'reproduce' the in-situ conditions in a more satisfactory manner. This realised a major step forward in the assessment of many natural slope stability problems.
