Book Soil Settlement and the Concept of Effective Stress and Shear Strength Interaction

Download or read book Soil Settlement and the Concept of Effective Stress and Shear Strength Interaction written by Mohd Jamaludin Md Noor and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-12-27 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the principal concept of soil mechanics that become the basis in explaining the soil mechanical behaviours. It is the extended concept of effective stress of Terzaghi and it is known as "the concept of effective stress and shear strength interaction." This new concept incorporates the role of mobilised shear strength developed within the soil body in resisting the compressive effect. Based on this new concept a comprehensive soil volume change framework has been developed known as Rotational Multiple Yield Surface Framework (RMYSF). This RMYSF is able to explain and quantify the puzzled and complex soil volume change behaviours. The main advantage of this RMYSF is that it is able to make a good prediction of soil and rock stress-strain responses at any effective stress. This will lead to accurate prediction of soil and rock settlements. Due to its simplicity and the comprehensive nature of this new fundamental concept in soil and rock mechanics, it will eventually be included in soil and rock mechanics syllabus for undergraduate and postgraduate courses. This book would be very useful for geotechnical engineers dealing with soil settlement, underground excavation, computer modelling, rock mechanics, road engineering, earth and rock dam engineering and tunnel engineering.

Book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering

Download or read book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering written by Jay Ameratunga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

Book Stress   strain behavior of a gneiss residual soil using the cubic triaxial cell

Download or read book Stress strain behavior of a gneiss residual soil using the cubic triaxial cell written by and published by . This book was released on 1912 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O conhecimento do comportamento de solos residuais é de grande importância para projetos geotécnicos no Brasil e, em particular, na região do Rio de Janeiro, tendo em vista que o clima tropical e as características geológicas favorecem a ocorrência de mantos residuais de grande espessura. O presente trabalho trata do estudo do comportamento tensão-deformação de um solo residual proveniente de um perfil de alteração de rocha gnáissica do maciço da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. Como os solos residuais gnáissicos preservam as foliações herdadas da rocha matriz, investigou-se em particular a relevância de se considerar a ocorrência de anisotropia nas características de resistência e deformabilidade destes solos. No estudo foi utilizado o equipamento triaxial cúbico desenvolvido na PUC-Rio. Este equipamento possibilita o controle independente das três tensões principais, sendo mais adequado para a reprodução das trajetórias de tensões tridimensionais, usualmente associadas com obras geotécnicas no campo, e em particular, para estudos sobre as características de anisotropia de solos. O programa experimental constou de ensaios de compressão axial e hidrostática, sob condições drenadas de carregamento, utilizando o equipamento triaxial cúbico. Foram realizados também ensaios oedométricos convencionais, de modo a se obter as características de compressibilidade do solo. Foram moldados corpos de prova a partir de blocos indeformados, paralelos e perpendiculares à foliação observada no solo, o que possibilitou a análise dos resultados para direções distintas de carregamento. Para efeito de comparação sobre a relevância do arranjo estrutural dos grãos do solo, foram ensaiados também corpos de prova compactados dos mesmos materiais. A análise dos resultados permitiu a obtenção dos módulos de deformabilidade e dos parâmetros de resistência do solo residual. Em particular, foram verificados os efeitos da direção de carregamento dos corpos de prova, do nível das tensões de confinamento, do grau de intemperismo, do arranjo estrutural dos grãos e dos efeitos do grau de saturação. Pode-se concluir que os solos estudados não apresentaram efeitos marcantes de anisotropia nas características de resistência. No entanto, quanto à deformabilidade, pode-se considerar que o solo residual jovem apresentou características anisotrópicas.
