In most of the geotechnical projects the parameters are determined only for the saturated condition. Although it is known that this condition is the most critical to soil strength and deformability, this conservative approach may neglect a possible important contribution of the unsaturated condition, resulting in an increase in the cost of the geotechnical solution. This paper presents and discusses the site characterization of the active zone of an unsaturated sandy soil profile under different suction conditions. Laboratory tests with controlled suction (retention curves, triaxial compression with bender elements and oedometer tests) were carried out on undisturbed samples collected from 1.0 to 5.0 m depth. The results show that strength and deformability parameters are strongly affected by soil suction and are less influenced by confinement stress up to 5.0 m depth. All the investigated subsoil profile shows a collapsible behavior, more pronounced closer to the ground surface and under the effect of higher suction values. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating the suction influence in the site investigation, parameter determination, and geotechnical design for more economical, reliable, and environmentally sustainable solutions.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43316922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main effects studied were the tensions in the reinforcements and the horizontal deformations of the face, including the influence of the type of shear strength envelope (total stresses or effective stresses) of the soil. In this study, a young gneiss residual soil (silty sand) was studied to obtain the grain size distribution, index properties and parameters of strength and deformability. This soil was considered for backfill in hypothetical sections of GRSW. The numerical results contributed to a better understanding of the GRSW behaviour, with evaluations closer to real field conditions. In the analyses carried out, when increasing the heavy compaction distance from the face, there are tendencies pointing to the reduction of the tensions in the reinforcements, displacement toward the interior of the soil mass of the points at which the maximum reinforcement tension occurs and reduction of the horizontal deformations of the face.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47978447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of the stability analysis showed the variability of the safety factor, the probability of failure, and the mobilized-mass volume, in the twenty-six simulated scenarios. The results of the runout analysis of the mobilized-mass volume indicated that any possible landslide would interdict, at least, two of the three lanes of traffic, equivalent to 59.7% of the lanes. Therefore, it can be concluded that a 2D and 3D stability analysis combined with the material point method to predict the post-failure soil displacement provides a better understanding of all processes involved in a landslide, which helps to establish more adequate and effective mitigation and remedial measures for each situation. Finally, in conclusion, the studied slope, with a maximum failure probability of 1.24%, is safe in terms of its overall stability for all twenty-six simulated scenarios.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47823658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A probabilistic analysis considers the statistical information of the problem to this quantification. In the geotechnical area, uncertainties play a particular role in structure design because it deals with naturally formed materials. Evaluating spatial variability has become progressively important. However, studies on the correct reproduction of this variability and conditional simulations are limited. In this paper, a geostatistical-based enhancement of the Random Finite Element Method (RFEM) is presented. The main aim of this study is to incorporate an advanced multivariate geostatistical technique (i.e., Turning Bands Co-simulation, TBCOSIM) to reproduce the coregionalization model of soil properties correctly in order to investigate the effects regarding this reproduction. It is illustrated in a real case of soil slope. The results showed that, for the unconditional simulation, the presented approach reached a perfect agreement with the coregionalization model, while the conditional simulation inserted some disturbances to this agreement, but it still satisfactorily reproduced the model. The original RFEM failed to reproduce this structure, leading to lower variances than the presented approach, which would cause a non-conservative design. Furthermore, disregarding the local uncertainty (i.e., the nugget effect) may introduce bias to analysis and, depending on its magnitude, may also lead the conditional analysis to not show a worthwhile reduction in variances of results. Finally, this paper shows that correctly determining the coregionalization model and reproducing it on probabilistic analysis may meaningfully influence the results.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46485578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This factor is obtained from Archie’s Law and consists of the ratio of pore water electrical conductivity to saturated porous material electrical conductivity, being related to porosity by constant terms. In this study, the electrical conductivity of the pore solution was obtained from a soil-cement leaching test after curing, and the conductivity of the monolithic soil-cement, by applying continuous voltage between 12-35 V onto electrodes of 1 mm thick copper plates. The influence of cement content and dry density on the electrical properties and water absorption was studied and discussed for curing times of 7 and 28 days. The samples molded with higher dry densities and cement contents presented higher Formation Factor for Soil Cement and higher unconfined compression strength. The Formation Factor and the unconfined compression strength are linearly related. Due to the methodology adopted, the Formation Factor was predominantly influenced by the conductivity of the pore solution and was related to the open porosity by means of a power function. Therefore, the Archie’s Law can be applied to soil-cement. In this case, the cementation coefficient varies until 28 days of curing, tending to stabilize around 8 from that age onwards. The volumetric coefficient can be adopted as a constant with a value of 1012.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41357568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this, a sample of residual diabase soil was collected and compacted in the laboratory at its optimum moisture content. Granular matrix suction sensors (GMS) were installed inside the compacted sample to monitor the suction during the experiment. The GMS allowed the monitoring of suction profile variations during the drying of the specimen submitted to ambient conditions. The DMT blade was statically inserted at 6 different points of the specimen surface with measurement of parameters A and B at every 10 cm deep. It was observed that with the increase of suction, there is an increase in both: material index value (ID) and dilatometric module (ED), but a reduction in the horizontal stress index (KD) value. The increase in ED value and reduction in KD value indicates that there is an increase in deformability modulus (E) and a decrease in coefficient of at-rest earth pressure (K0). The DMT correctly detected the trend in variations in geotechnical parameters as a function of variation in soil suction profiles.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42193076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of studies have been undertaken to quantify the degree of improvement achieved by using natural and synthetic fiber reinforcement. However, there is a lack of studies to understand the desiccation behavior of reinforced clay. This study aimed to explore the desiccation and cracking behavior of clayey soil reinforced with two natural fibers (coir and jute fiber) in addition to the degree of improvement in tensile strength. A series of direct tension and desiccation cracking tests have been conducted in the laboratory on clay-coir and clay-jute fiber mixes. The results demonstrate that when coir and jute fibers are used, the tensile strength of fiber-reinforced soil rises by up to 475 percent and 215 percent, respectively, when compared with the tensile strength of unreinforced soil at the same moisture content. Desiccation test results also show that blending of fibers reduces the breadth and depth of cracks significantly. The characteristics of unreinforced and fiber-reinforced clayey soil under desiccation and direct tension are briefly discussed in this paper. Findings of the present study will be important for professionals dealing with clay liners and trying to reduce cracking problems associated with drying soil.","PeriodicalId":43687,"journal":{"name":"Soils and Rocks","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44264282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
