Dynamic penetration test (DPSH) is one of the large amount of soil in-situ tests are known. In world practice, this method usually used for granular soil investigations although it could be applied in cohesive soils. ...

Investigations of soil shear strength properties for Baltic Sea shore sand along Klaipėda city is presented. Investigated sand angle of internal friction (φ) and cohesion (c) is determined via two different direct shear ...

Soil investigations concerning cyclic and dynamic loading differ from static analysis. The Problem with the abovementioned loads becomes more important, when cohesive soils are taken into consideration. There are plenty ...

In order to evaluate overconsolidation ratio (OCR) of soil, the necessity to restore them as much as possible to in situ conditions appears, because sometimes when it is not taken into account, mistakes could be made while ...

The paper deals with the probabilistic method of the assessment of the depth of soil freezing. Annual (winter) maxima of the position of the zero centigrade temperature measured in the soil were approximated by Gumbel ...

In article the description and results of in situ test of soils is resulted by of Russian drilling test (RDT). It involves several drilling parameters: torque, axial force, rotation speed, linear velocity, tip resistance ...

This report described the methodology and results of soil tests in the compression device with the ability to specify horizontal motions. The research introduced of behaviour of undermining soils – the areas affected by ...

This paper describes the results of experimental investigations anisotropic clay at triaxial tests and uniaxial compression. A band clay of glacial origin has been selected for the study widespread in the north of Belarus. ...

A framework based on logarithmic contractancy is proposed to produce versatile shapes of yield surfaces for structured anisotropic clays. The recently proposed constitutive model (E-SCLAY1S) is an extension of existing ...

For the foundation of an industrial complex, auger-cast-in-place piles (ACIP-Piles) have been installed on behalf of the recommendation of a local geotechnical consultant. With respect to the poorly graded sand deposits ...
