Prediction Of Pore Water Pressure During Earthquakes In Southern Kyoto Area, F. Oka
Prediction Of Pore Water Pressure During Earthquakes In Southern Kyoto Area, F. Oka
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
This paper is concerned with the liquefaction analysis for the hypothetical earthquake in southern Kyoto area in Japan. The method of liquefaction analysis can consider the local soil properties of sand and clay, using the constitutive equations of clay and sand, and the theory of mixture. From this study, it becomes evident that liquefaction will occur at the site near the river, and also liquefaction can be observed in the clay layers.

Verification And Evaluation Of The Result Of Liquefiable Soil Treated With Vibroflotation, Bao-He Gu, Zong-Han Hu, Wan-Yu Wang
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
Result of liquefiable soil treated with vibroflotation is recommended in this paper through the treatment of soil of a large power plant. The site lies in macroseismic area, where the bearing capacity of soil in layer B was low and there existed liquefaction potential. Verifications before and after treatment depicted clearly that the result of vibroflotation was excellent. Not only the liquefaction trend of soil was eliminated but also the bearing capacity was enhanced. Various testing methods were introduced and evaluation of liquefaction potential of soft saturated soil before and after treatment were analyzed and discussed in this paper.
A Case History Of Bridge Performance During Earthquakes In Japan, T. Iwasaki
A Case History Of Bridge Performance During Earthquakes In Japan, T. Iwasaki
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
This paper describes the results of investigations on seismic damages to highway bridges due to the past major earthquakes occurred in Japan, with emphasis on gen. technical engineering aspects. More than three thousand highway bridges sustained seismic damages for these sixty years since 1923. Among them some thirty bridges completely fell down, including nine bridges failed due to the effects of fires. For some typical bridge damages, results of detailed analyses are also given in order to clarify the causes of the> damages. From the review of comprehensive studies on actual bridge damages, this paper makes several conclusions regarding seismic …
A Case History Of Chemical Attack Of A Clay Shale, G. H. Glos, D. Hinkle
A Case History Of Chemical Attack Of A Clay Shale, G. H. Glos, D. Hinkle
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
This paper describes the results of an extensive investigation made to determine the cause of excessive settlements of two 800 MN steam turbine units located at the Four Corners Steam Electric Station near Farmington, New Mexico. The units are located on a clay-shale formation with numerous gypsum seams. The settlement was originally attributed to the solutioning of these gypsum seams. It was found that the construction of a large unlined cooling pond raised the ground water table in the vicinity of the power plant. In this saturated environment, a chemical attack of the existing clay shales began. It is believed …

India's First Venture Relating To Subsurface Drainage By Horizontal Drains, T. K. Natarajan, A. V. S. R. Murty, Deep Chandra
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
Landslides in the Nilgiris district in 1978-79 1 caused heavy damages to property and human life. The field studies indicated that in certain spots, the build up of excess hydrostatic pressure, caused by direct and indirect ingress of water into the soil mantle, is the main cause for certain landslides in the region. The paper attempts to give the total case history relating to a pioneering venture of its kind towards the correction of landslides undertaken in India. The case history assumes special significance in as much as the horizontal drains successfully installed for the first time in this country, …

International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
This paper describes the ground movements measured at a Test Section during construction of twin rapid transit tunnels in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Test Section was located in an area of rock, soft ground and mixed face tunneling, with the alignment of the twin tunnels approximately 100 feet below ground surface. Overburden soils consist primarily of a very dense, saturated glacial till containing cobbles and boulders, with a weakly metamorphosed, fractured shale bedrock below. Instrumentation at the Test Section was installed in three cross-sections: one with the tunnel headings entirely in rock, a second with the tunnel headings in soft ground, …
Pretreatment Of A Soft Soil By Surcharging - A Case History, D. Lakner, I. K. Lee, E. Armstrong, O. G. Ingles
Pretreatment Of A Soft Soil By Surcharging - A Case History, D. Lakner, I. K. Lee, E. Armstrong, O. G. Ingles
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
A normally consolidated silty clay deposit, varying in depth from 0 to 15 m, was pretreated by surcharging combined with P.V.C. vertical drains. Representative field values of the vertical coefficients of primary (0.0015 m2/kN) and secondary consolidation (0.01) were calculated from the settlements caused by a preliminary fill placed some six years prior to the detailed geotechnical studies. A conservative representative field value of the horizontal coefficient of primary consolidation was established to be 8 m2/year. Asaoka's method was used to predict future settlements due to both primary and secondary consolidation. The vertical drains were installed …
Stabilization Of The Outenberg Hill In Geraardsbergen, R. De Paepe, M. Wallays
Stabilization Of The Outenberg Hill In Geraardsbergen, R. De Paepe, M. Wallays
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
A road, winding across the "Oudenberg" hill at Geraardsbergen, Belgium, and built partly in embankment and in excavation, suffered from three landslides from 1937 to 1966. Bored piles were used to nail the surface layers to the stable substratum, subsurface drainage to limit the fluctuations of the water table and a 220 m long low viaduct founded directly on bored piles to re-establish the traffic. Since the end of the works no additional movement appeared.

Use Of Surcharges As Treatment Of Residual Soil Foundation - A Case History, L. G. F. S. Demello, M. Cepollina, F. J. P. Deoliveira
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
Predetermined locations for storage of leaching materials needed total warranty against cracking as result of differential settlements. Two stockpiles had to be located on a platform, one placed in area of low height cuts of unsaturated residual soils, the other over fills placed without compaction criteria over saturated clayey soils of low consistency. It was decided to preload the platform in order to minimize future absolute and differential settlements, reducing them to allowable limits. The systematic interpretation of the instrumentation allowed the optimization of the treatment. The behaviour during unloading of the soils indicated heaves much smaller than the limits …

Adjustable Columns Control Settlement Of Structure, F. B. Newman, A. M. Digioia Jr.
Adjustable Columns Control Settlement Of Structure, F. B. Newman, A. M. Digioia Jr.
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
A five-story precast concrete building was to be built on 10 to 130 feet of mixed cohesive and bouldery engineered fill. The initial estimates of total and differential settlement of shallow foundations for the structure were considered intolerable. After evaluating several options, it was concluded that providing a means of adjusting the building columns to "relevel" the structure as the foundations settled was the most cost-effective approach to the problem. The observed settlements were different than originally estimated, and some unanticipated settlement and adjustment problems did occur. However, the approach was successful and cost effective.
Embankment On Vertical Drains - Pore Pressures During Construction, M. Jamiolkowski, R. Lancellotta
Embankment On Vertical Drains - Pore Pressures During Construction, M. Jamiolkowski, R. Lancellotta
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
Excess pore pressures and consolidation settlements observed during the construction of a trial embankment placed on four different types of vertical drains are examined with the aim of evaluating: undrained pore pressure response, field coefficient of consolidation and drain performance.
Evaluation Of A Differentially Settled Tank, S. M. Gazioglu, J. L. Withiam
Evaluation Of A Differentially Settled Tank, S. M. Gazioglu, J. L. Withiam
International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering
The paper discusses studies undertaken to identify the cause(s) for differential settlements experienced by a large floating roof tank. The studies included an evaluation of existing subsurface and tank performance data, additional subsurface exploration and laboratory test programs, a monitoring program during the restricted use of the tank and recommended remedial measures to allow full use of the tank. It is concluded that the affected portion of the tank was sited over a thicker and more compressible soil layer than the remaining portions and that releveling by mudjacking would allow unrestricted future use of the tank.
