Abstract:

This collection of 12 papers on soil mechanics addresses the following topics: implementing intelligent compaction specifications; in situ tests for compaction control of a bottom ash embankment; evaluation of in situ density and moisture content by using elastic and electromagnetic wave propagation; compaction-induced earth pressures against a sheet pile wall in peat; resistance factors for axially loaded concrete piles driven into soft soils; flowfill and mechanically stabilized earth bridge approaches; resistance factors for drilled shafts in weak rock; analysis of 3-m-diameter induced trench culvert under a 19.4-m soil cover; long-term performance of pavement drainage layers; wrapped-face mechanically stabilized earth walls with inadequate compaction near facing; geocell-reinforced sand behavior under a vertical load; and geogrid in flexible pavements.
