Abstract Field-based electrical resistivity methods offer a nondestructive and rapid means to collect continuous subsurface data. As such, these types of geophysical are becoming increasingly popular tools for geotechnical engineers; however, it is challenging derive information, such as soil type, density, water content, from the field measurements. Laboratory-based soil-box tests, AASHTO T 288-12, Standard Method Test Determining Minimum Laboratory Soil Resistivity, also being used examine...
Capacitively-Coupled Resistivity (CCR), Electrical Tomography (ERT), and seismic surface wave testing using Love Rayleigh waves were performed on Kinion Lake Dam, an embankment dam that has historically experienced significant seepage internal erosion issues. The goal of this study is to detect locations in the for remediation purposes map bedrock location across area nondestructive geophysical measurements. Surveys completed along crest downstream toe subsurface conditions with a focus...
In this paper, two very simple and accurate equations are introduced that enable geotechnical engineers to determine the undrained ultimate bearing capacity of shallow strip foundations resting on two-layered clays. Results analyses show in case weak-over-strong clay, usually general shear failure occurs, strong-over-weak soil will most likely experience punching with a large amount plastic settlement before it reaches its capacity. This study applied finite-difference method using computer...
Conventional bridge systems make use of expansion joints to accommodate movements caused primarily by thermal changes. These may accelerate the deterioration elements and often require significant maintenance costs. Originally proposed in Australia, seamless concept eliminates need for between decks roadway pavements. Past applications bridges have utilized a continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) which transition zone is employed deck CRCP longitudinal contraction pavement. A...
