DMT for Load-Settlement Curve Prediction in a Tropical Sandy Soil Compared to Plate Load Tests
(Amer Soc Testing Materials, 2020-01-01)
The flat dilatometer test (DMT) has been used as an accurate in situ site investigation tool for foundation settlement prediction. However, few investigations have assessed its performance in settlement prediction in unusual ...
Efeito da dimensão da placa em resultados de prova de carga em areia
(BrasilUFRNPROGRAMA DE PÓS-GRADUAÇÃO EM ENGENHARIA CIVIL, 2016-11-18)
Plate load tests represent an important tool on foundation design because it allows to define allowable stresses and settlements. However, when carried out on sand, the extrapolation of the results from the model (plate) ...
Prediction of Load-Settlement Curves by the DMT in an Unsaturated Tropical Soil Site
(Brazilian Soc Soil Mechanics & Geotechnical Engineering, 2019-09-01)
Several methods for prediction of the load-settlement curves of shallow foundations have been proposed based on in-situ testing data. However, the good accuracy of such prediction depends on the definition of appropriate ...
Simulated overfishing and natural eutrophication promote the relative success of a non-indigenous ascidian in coral reefs at the Pacific coast of Costa Rica
(2017)
Colonial ascidians of the genus Didemnum are common fouling organisms and are typically associated with degraded ecosystems
and anthropogenic structures installed in the sea. In this study, however, the non-indigenous ...
Estimativa de recalques em aterros sobre solos moles
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBrasilUFRNEngenharia Civil, 2017)
The settlement caused by embankments on soft soils is a subject that has been
worrying geotechnical engineers over the years because of the difficulty to deal with this type
of soil, which usually presents large deformations ...
Aplicação de modelos numéricos para estimativa de recalques deuma célula do Aterro Sanitário de Belo Horizonte
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2010-03-01)
This study presents the application of a coupled mechanical and biological one-dimensional model, developed by Simões (2000), and two-dimensional linear and non-linear (hyperbolic) elastic models to assess settlements in ...
Observed and calculated load-settlement relationship in a sandy gravel
(NATL RESEARCH COUNCIL CANADA, 2000)
The purpose of this research was to obtain a better understanding of the nonlinear stress-strain behavior of the typical gravel of Santiago, Chile, due to the increasing needs for construction of high-rise buildings, ...
Contribución al estudio del comportamiento de las pinturas antiincrustantes: V
(Laboratorio de Entrenamiento Multidisciplinario para la Investigación Tecnológica (LEMIT), 1972)
Efeito do Reforço de Solo com Geossintéticos no Recalque de Fundações Diretas
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBrasilUFRNEngenharia Civil, 2018)
In this paper, the effect of geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) on settlement of shallow foundations was evaluated, based on results of plate load tests available in the technical literature. The tests were performed using ...
