Bearing Capacity of Desiccated Tailings

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 1999
The development of matric suctions in soils contributes to their shear strength, resulting in an enhanced factor of safety against bearing-capacity failure. In this paper, matric suction profiles of desiccated mine tailings are predicted from a steady-state solution for evaporative conditions, and from an isothermal mathematical model that simulates ...

Compressibility and Bearing Capacity

Journal of the Geotechnical Engineering Division, 1981
Small-scale model footing tests were carried out on two frictional soils having identical strength characteristics and different deformation characteristics. The results emphasized the importance of soil compressibility. Test results are compared with existing analyical methods dealing with the bearing capacity of compressible soils. The suitability of

Effect of soil variability on bearing capacity accounting for non-stationary characteristics of undrained shear strength

Computers and geotechnics, 2019
The objective of this paper is to investigate the bearing capacity of spatially varying soil in the presence of non-stationary feature of undrained shear strength. Firstly, undrained shear strength is modeled by a non-stationary random field.

Experimental and theoretical studies on the ultimate bearing capacity of geogrid-reinforced sand

Geotextiles and Geomembranes, 2019
Geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS) structures have gained popularity in replacing concrete rigid piles as abutments to support medium or small-spanned bridge superstructures in recent years. This study conducted 13 model tests to investigate the ultimate

Undrained seismic bearing capacity of strip footing placed on homogeneous and heterogeneous soil slopes by finite element limit analysis

Computers and geotechnics, 2019
In this paper, undrained seismic bearing capacity of a strip footing placed on a slope in both homogeneous and heterogeneous soils is investigated using the lower and upper bounds of finite element limit analysis.

Ultimate bearing capacity of strip footings on sand overlying clay under inclined loading

Computers and geotechnics, 2019
In this paper, the bearing capacity and the failure mechanism of obliquely loaded footings on sand overlying clay are determined by using discontinuity layout optimization (DLO) procedure.
