Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 At present, the geogrid is commonly used to treat the differential settlement of the subgrade at the joint of the filling and excavation effectively. In order to further improve the utilization rate of geogrid in the treatment of subgrade, the driving ...

Influence of increasing differential settlement under columns on a RC frame response considering different support conditions [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Natural hazards and human activities bring about overall or local ground subsidence. Predicting the effects of large differential settlement on response of structural frames, especially in congested urban areas, is a main issue in design process as ...
