Vertical facing panel-joint gap analysis for steel-seinforced soil walls [PDF]
This paper reports the results of a numerical parametric study focused on the prediction of vertical load distribution and vertical gap compression between precast concrete facing panel units in steel-reinforced soil walls ranging in height from 6 to 24 ...

Compaction behaviour of clay [PDF]
This paper presents an experimental study of the compaction behaviour of non-active clay. One-dimensional static compaction tests were carried out at high and medium water content with matric suction monitoring using Trento high-capacity tensiometers. At

Influence of Structure and Liquid Limit on the Secondary Compressibility of Soft Soils
The macroscopic mechanical properties of natural sedimentary soft soils, which are usually linked to their microstructure, are different from those of remolded soils.
