The interpretation of in-situ geotechnical test data needs a unified approach so that soil parameters are evaluated in a consistent and complementary manner with laboratory results. A common thread in assessing in-situ tests is the focus on the geologic stress ...

The axial load-displacement-capacity of drilled shaft foundations can be conveniently evaluated using the results of seismic piezocone penetration tests (SCPTU) to provide continuous profiles of small- and large-strain soil properties. The penetration readings ...

Laboratory and field measurements of the small-strain shear modulus of a Piedmont residual soil were compared to gain a better understanding of mechanisms affecting stiffness. Resonant column tests were performed to study influences of void ratio, overconsolidation ...

A series of instrumented load test on two drilled shaft foundations situated in residual soil and partially weathered rock of the Piedmont geology were conducted to evaluate load displacement and load transfer response. An extensive array of in situ tests ...

Critical state models are highly successful in reproducing the behavior of soft clays as far as the major differences between elastic and plastic behavior are concerned. However, they are not able to model the non-linear behavior of soils at small strains. ...
