Development and application of test cases for comparing vertical ground heat exchanger models [PDF]
The main objective of this paper is to establish a set of test cases for analytical verifications and intermodel comparisons of ground heat exchanger (GHX) models used in building simulation programs. Several test cases are suggested.

The Study of Geomechanical Condition of Unstable Rocks in the Vicinity of Mine Working Junctions
The relevance of research of material strain nature based on physical models equivalent to rocks is substantiated. To identify the dependencies and mechanism of unstable rock strain in the vicinity of mine working junctions, an experimental technique has

Load-settlement behaviour of model pile groups in sand under vertical load
Model pile load testing is effective to study the load-settlement behaviour of pile foundations given the controlled environment in which the testing is done. This paper reports a testing program in a large calibration chamber involving individual piles

The Performance of Bamboo Truss with Gapit Form Under Vertical Loads Authors
The connection in bamboo construction is frequently the weakest point. This research discusses the performance of the gapit form on bamboo truss that effectively optimises the bamboo's inherent strength and can sustain vertical loads.

Osterberg method of testing high capacity bored-piles [PDF]
It is obvious that for high-rise building construction there should be added additional requirements not only for designing, but also for organization and technology for foundations and underground parts of the building. Only qualitative calculations
