CASE HISTORY: VALUE ENGINEERING OF DRIVEN H-PILES FOR SLOPE STABILITY ON THE MISSOURI RIVER (2009)
In order to increase rail traffic capacity, a rail line owner added an additional track adjacent to an existing main line along the Missouri River near Gasconade, MO. The new track was placed on the existing railroad embankment between the existing track and ...

PROBABILISTIC CALIBRATION OF RESISTANCE FACTORS FOR SLOPE STABILITY (2009)
Significant research has been performed in recent years to develop load and resistance factor design (LRFD) methods for geotechnical applications. However, one lacking aspect of this work is application to design of earth slopes, including consideration of ...

CASE HISTORY, MULTIPLE AXIAL STATNAMIC TESTS ON A DRILLED SHAFT EMBEDDED IN SHALE (2006)
As was the case on this project, the uncertainty of foundation performance in shale can lead to overly conservative designs, particularly with drilled shaft foundations. An extensive Statnamic axial testing program was performed to verify that the load-settlement ...
