Use of vertical drains and lime-cement stabilization to improve stability and reduce settlement of a high embankment on very sensitive, soft soil [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
This article presents a case-study of the design and construction of a 14 m high embankment for a highway construction project in mid-Norway. The ground consists of up to 30 m soft clay, with high sensitivity over bedrock.

Traffic effects on the soil preconsolidation pressure due to eucalyptus harvest operations

Scientia Agricola, 2005
One of the limitations for reaching sustainable forest development is related to the traffic of machines and vehicles during harvest operations and wood transport, which may cause soil structure degradation.

Compressibilidade de um Argissolo Vermelho-Amarelo trafegado e escarificado Compressibility of a trafficked and chiseled Alfisol

Ciência Rural, 2012
O tráfego de máquinas agrícolas é considerado uma das principais fontes da compactação do solo. Uma prática utilizada para minimizar os efeitos da compactação é a escarificação, porém a haste escarificadora pode causar compactação subsuperficial.

Structural quality and load-bearing capacity of an Ultisol (Argissolo Vermelho amarelo) in mechanized coffee areas with different deployment times

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
The mechanized management systems used in Brazilian coffee plantations generate heavy machine traffic and lead to the application of loads on the soil that affect the soil structure and lead to widespread compaction.

The Influence of Segregation Size of Peat and Pre- Consolidation Pressure on the Effective Shear Strength Properties

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The degree of composition for peat soil in geotechnical engineering may affected the shear strength of the peat soil based on their types (sapric, hemic and fabric).

Groundwater-Corrected Constitutive Parameterisation and Finite Element Material Library Development from Regional Borehole Data for Shallow Clayey Soils

Geotechnics
Regional geotechnical archives contain valuable information for numerical modelling, but they are rarely organised in a form that supports traceable derivation of constitutive input parameters for advanced geotechnical analysis.

The dependence of the strength properties of soil on its physical state [PDF]

Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2012
Soils of hydraulic facilities and foundations are basically in the unsaturated state. Strength properties of these soils inside of each building area may be extremely various and should be carefully studied.

Alterações estruturais e mecânicas de solo de várzea cultivado com arroz irrigado por inundação Structural and mechanical changes in a lowland soil under flooded rice

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2013
A conversão de área natural para área de uso agrícola pode degradar a estrutura do solo, favorecendo a ocorrência de compactação. Este trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar as alterações nas propriedades físico-hídricas e mecânicas de um Gleissolo Háplico ...

Numerical Implementation of Isotropic Consolidation of Clayey Soils

Acta Polytechnica, 2003
This paper reports on implementation of several numerical techniques to solve a set of governing equations resulting from simple one dimensional isotropic consolidation of soils that behave according to the Cam clay model.
