This book was released on 1985 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a field investigation carried out with the French self-boring pressuremeter PAF 76 in a soft deltaic clay deposit located in south Louisiana are presented. The in-situ test is performed using an electronic control and data acquisition system, monitored by an HP85 microcomputer. A brief description of the equipment used, the general in-situ test procedure, and the approach used for the interpretation of a standard expansion test are presented. General characteristics of the deposit as well as an outline of the testing program are summarized. The standard pressuremeter characteristics are then plotted versus depth and compared with results obtained using other testing methods at the same site (cone penetrometer, dilatometer, triaxial test). This comparison shows that the self-boring pressuremeter yields shear strength and elastic modulus values much higher than the other classical methods, which agrees with previously reported observations.

Download or read book In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering written by Alan J. Lutenegger and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-05-03 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering covers the field of applied geotechnical engineering related to the use of in situ testing of soils to determine soil properties and parameters for geotechnical design. It provides an overview of the practical aspects of the most routine and common test methods, as well as test methods that engineers may wish to include on specific projects. It is suited for a graduate-level course on field testing of soils and will also aid practicing engineers. Test procedures for determining in situ lateral stress, strength, and stiffness properties of soils are examined, as is the determination of stress history and rate of consolidation. Readers will be introduced to various approaches to geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations using in situ tests. Importantly, the text discusses the potential advantages and disadvantages of using in situ tests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ten years have passed since the first edition was published. During that period there have been a substantial number of changes in geotechnical engineering, especially in the applications of foundation engineering. As the world population increases, more land is needed and many soil deposits previously deemed unsuitable for residential housing or other construction projects are now being used. Such areas include problematic soil regions, mining subsidence areas, and sanitary landfills. To overcome the problems associated with these natural or man-made soil deposits, new and improved methods of analysis, design, and implementation are needed in foundation construction. As society develops and living standards rise, tall buildings, transportation facilities, and industrial complexes are increasingly being built. Because of the heavy design loads and the complicated environments, the traditional design concepts, construction materials, methods, and equipment also need improvement. Further, recent energy and material shortages have caused additional burdens on the engineering profession and brought about the need to seek alternative or cost-saving methods for foundation design and construction.
