As in accordance with Eurocode 7 Part 1, the hen prediction of geotechnical behavior is difficult, so it may be appropriate to apply the approach known as the “observational method,” in which the design is reviewed during construction. This method is applied by following this procedure: limits of acceptability of the values of certain quantities…
What is a geotechnical study? The geotechnical study, or as it is also known, soil investigation, is the procedure by which you can find out the soil’s physical properties. It is usually used on construction sites to determine if the soil is safe for the construction that will be done. Without soil analysis, construction projects…
Green energy is probably a topic that a lot of people talk about, but few people are familiar enough. Green Energy is the term used to describe energy produced from renewable sources. These are inexhaustible sources, the most conventional examples are the sun and the wind, which regenerate at the same speed as they are…
Stability analysis of embedded cantilever retaining walls in seismic area is generally carried out by calculating a factor of safety against a possible mechanism of collapse. However, a more rational approach consists in assessing the performance of the structure in terms of accumulated permanent displacement (Fig. 1). Indeed, this approach is required by many national…
The oedometric test The oedometric test is used to study the one-dimensional compressibility characteristics (zero lateral deformation) of a cohesive soil in the laboratory. The data obtained is of utmost importance for hypothesizing the behavior of a soil subjected to a change in stress state from the in situ state (e.g., oedometric stresses such as…
