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 ...

Studies on Cyclic and Dynamic Loading on Cohesive Soil in Road Engineering

Sas, Wojciech; Głuchowski, Andrzej; Gabryś, Katarzyna; Soból, Emil; Szymański, Alojzy (13th Baltic Sea region geotechnical conference. Historical experience and challenges of geotechnical problems in Baltic Sea region, 2016, 2016)

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 ...

Underground Space of Saint-Petersburg as a Multicomponent System: Engineering Geological and Geotechnical Aspects of its Development

Dashko, Regina; Alekseev, Ivan (13th Baltic Sea region geotechnical conference. Historical experience and challenges of geotechnical problems in Baltic Sea region, 2016, 2016)

The paper offers a complex approach to assess underground space as a multi-component system for its development and utilization. It is indicated that a geotechnical analysis of sandy and clayey soils of St. Petersburg needs ...
