Analysis of the stability of the excavated openings and the corresponding measures against instability inevitably necessitate a good understanding of the yielding and failure mechanisms of the openings. This paper proposes a mechanism of potential yielding across an excavated rectangular diaphragm wall panel trench. By using an elastic analytical solution to the problem of horizontal stress changes and displacements induced during the installation of a rectangular diaphragm wall panel, two extreme cases (panel trenches with dimensions 1 m × 1 m and 6 m × 1 m) have been analysed to investigate the distribution of the principal stress change of the soils around the trenches due to excavation. It has been found that, when the elastic limit is reached, soils with different consolidation histories will exhibit different yiel...","PeriodicalId":45150,"journal":{"name":"Geotechnical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2005-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1680/GENG.2005.158.3.169","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67402367","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}

They are typically used for the installation of electricity cables or small-diameter pipelines. This type of tunnelling differs from conventional tunnelling owing to the lack of soil excavation. The tunnel is formed by dynamically expelling soil outwards in a predominantly radial direction. This creates a stress and displacement field that has the potential to damage existing services and buildings. To reduce the risk of damage to existing structures installation guidelines detailing acceptable proximity distances need to be provided. This paper details a methodology that has been used to calculate acceptable proximity distances to existing grey iron pipelines that have a transverse geometric configuration to the new pipeline.

For a range of uniformly graded granular materials compacted to the same relative density, there will be two important factors influencing the strength of the aggregate: particle strength and voids ratio (which will be a function of particle shape). Large oedometer tests have been performed in addition to box tests and single particle crushing tests and a new parameter, called the relative strength index, is defined to incorporate the effects of both particle strength and voids ratio. It is found that the relative strength index correlates well with the amount of degradation of ballast in both the large oedometer tests and the box tests, and therefore shows promise as a suitable method for comparing ballast types without having to apply thousands of cycles of load on each ballast.","PeriodicalId":45150,"journal":{"name":"Geotechnical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2005-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1680/GENG.2005.158.2.107","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67402183","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 test piles are embedded in superficial deposits and weathered rocks with various degrees of decomposition. In this paper, the pile load test results are interpreted and reported. A simple and rational method of back-analysis for long piles, using inclinometer data and assuming a fourth-order polynomial to represent the shape of soil reaction profile, is introduced. The method, requiring only simple spreadsheet-type operations, makes it possible to incorporate non-linear concrete behaviour in the back-analysis, and to deduce the p–y curves for future design of piles in similar ground conditions. In order to verify the rational method, an analysis is carried out using the back-analysed p–y curves, and the predictions are found to agree well with the measured pile head deflections.

In designing a caisson a geotechnical engineer must consider the installation process as well as the in-place performance. The purpose of this paper is to present calculation procedures for the installation of a caisson in clay. For clay sites, the caisson will often be used as an anchor, with the ratio of the skirt length (L) to the diameter (D) as high as 5. Calculation methods are presented for determining the resistance to penetration of open-ended cylindrical caisson foundations with and without the application of suction inside the caisson. Comparisons between predictions and case records are made. A companion paper describes the calculation procedure for installation in sand soils. Finally, comments are made here about installation in a variety of soils other than homogeneous deposits of clay or sand.","PeriodicalId":45150,"journal":{"name":"Geotechnical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2005-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1680/GENG.2005.158.2.75","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67402250","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}

In the present paper, a finite-element program is used to perform pumping analyses, involving moving phreatic surfaces and possible desaturation of materials. First, a problem of local dewatering from a line of wells is analysed, involving desaturation of the soil. The results from an analytical solution as well as those of the numerical model are compared with field data. It is shown that the numerical results, accounting for soil desaturation, are closer to field measurements. Second, the ability of the finite-element program to model falling and subsequently rising groundwater levels in cities due to variable water abstraction (as in the case of London) is assessed. The techniques show promise and are sufficiently flexible to be applied to other geologies and boundary conditions.","PeriodicalId":45150,"journal":{"name":"Geotechnical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2005-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1680/GENG.2005.158.2.83","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67402278","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 paper looks at the problem of assessing of deep foundation settlements and describes two approaches developed to enable designers to take soil–foundation non-linear behaviour into account. The first provides in-field stiffness parameters evaluated by back-analysis of full-scale piles.

This paper examines the application of a new three-surface kinematic hardening model for the subgrade in a finite-element analysis to evaluate the rut depth and resilient vertical strain at the top of the subgrade at the end of the construction stage. The resilient modulus for the subgrade is determined by examining the stress changes at different depths in the subgrade, for different thicknesses of granular material, and applying such stress changes to simulated triaxial samples for 50 cycles to compute the resilient modulus at different depths for input to a layered elastic analysis, in order to...","PeriodicalId":45150,"journal":{"name":"Geotechnical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1680/GENG.2005.158.1.45","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67402176","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}
