The results of the test pile program established driving criteria for production piles that included end of- drive blow counts and pile tip elevations with an appropriate allowance for setup. The program also confirmed that the planned installation equipment ...

<p>A shake-table series of experiments has provided valuable data for liquefaction-induced lateral spreading effects on pile foundations. In this paper, this data is employed to estimate peak soil pressure on single piles embedded in a laterally spreading ...

Geological evidence suggests that during a future eruption, Cumbre Vieja Volcano on the Island of La Palmamay experience a catastrophic failure of its west flank, dropping 150 to 500 km3 of rock into the sea. Using a geologically reasonable estimate of landslide ...

<p>As a material, soft clay poses many challenges to geotechnical engineers. The<br />material responds in a spectacular manner to stress changes. The paper describes the behaviour of five embankments constructed on lightly overconsolidated soft Malaysian ...
