Formation of Artificial Collapsible Loess

open access: yesProblematic Soils and Rocks and In Situ Characterization, 2007
This paper will present work over recent years, which has aimed to develop a reproducible collapsible loess sample in the laboratory. The idea was to create specimens that not only reproduce the degree of loess collapse found in the field, but did so ...

The Collapsible Diseases of Masonry Structure in the Loess Regions [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Earth and Planetary Science, 2012
The main reason of the collapsible diseases of masonry structure in the loess regions is the foundation soil soaked by water. Based on the survey of the collapsible disease of masonry structure in the loess regions, by analyzing the reasons for the ...

Bearing Characteristics and Negative Skin Friction Preventive Measures for Highway Bridge Pile Foundations in Collapsible Loess Areas Under Water Immersion

open access: yesWater (Switzerland)
In collapsible loess sites, large-scale collapsible settlement may occur after water immersion, which will reduce the bearing capacity of existing highway bridge pile foundations and pose serious potential safety hazards.

Collapsible Loess on the Loess Plateau of China

1995
The aeolian silt accumulation making up the Loess Plateau of North China reaches more than 250m in thickness in the Lanzhou region. Regional studies have shown that there is a clear gradient in collapsibility from the dry north-west to the moist south-east of the Plateau.

Improvement of Collapsible Loess in Eastern Europe

open access: yes, 2015
Loess consists essentially of silt-sized (typically 20-30 microns) primary quartz particles that form as a result of high-energy earth-surface processes such as glacial grinding or cold climate weathering.

Collapsibility and seismic settlement of loess

Engineering Geology, 2009
Loess collapsibility and seismic settlement have proven to be costly geotechnical hazards in China. Since collapsibility assessment and mitigation are now conventional practices in Chinese design codes, some previous efforts have been made to relate collapsibility and seismic settlement in order to simplify assessment of the latter.

Collapsible Loess in Iowa

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1973
Abstract The collapsibility, or tendency towards rapid consolidation or settlement upon saturation by water, of many C‐horizon loess soils constitutes and important physical property pertinent to soil genesis, erosion, and engineering.

The Study of Jinnan Loess Collapsible and Depth

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
At present, there are not enough research for the initial collapse pressure and collapsible coefficient of the loess in the country; There are tests for the Jinnan collapsible loess, to study the collapsible coefficient and the initial collapse pressure changes with the depth.
