Abstract:

Two new breakwaters are being constructed to protect the renewed harbour entrance in Ostend, Belgium. In this paper, both the hydraulic design and geotechnical design are discussed. For the hydraulic design, model tests have been carried out in a 2-D wave flume to optimise the cross section. Stability of the final breakwater, with special attention to the crest element and the armour unit HARO, and stability during the construction phases were tested. The geotechnical design, especially of the north-western breakwater, was an engineering challenge since it is located above a thick layer of ver

Abstract:

Geotechnical problems such as problematic soils (expansive soil, organic soil, natural collapsible soils, etc.), problematic rock (shale, weathered limestone), soil slope instability and rock slope instability or rock fall (landslide) which damaged civil engineering structures, such as roads, buildings, dams, railway, and other related structures in Ethiopia. The research was conducted by identifying the geotechnical problems and its effects on road segments in the north west part of Ethiopia, specifically along Gilgel Belles â€“ Bahir Dar road segments.

Abstract:

Much of the territory of the Russian Federation is located in the permafrost soil area. The developed hydrocarbon deposits make a significant contribution to the budget of the Russian Federation. Therefore, ensuring trouble-free operation of engineering structures and these fields is the most crucial task. Frozen soil deformation leads to violations in the operation of structures, which entail economic harm and significant environmental problems. This article provides a brief overview of the leading causes of deformations of engineering structures built on permafrost soils. The methods current

Abstract:

Abstract In recent years, nano technology has been significantly implemented in geotechnical engineering, especially for soil remediation. Using this technology has improved soil resistance parameters and led to the stabilization of many problematic soils. Clay soils, due to their nature, have a large dispersion on the surface of the earth. The widespread dispersion of these types of soils in the site of structures, describes the necessity of studying and investigating new methods of improving and amending the resistive properties of these soils. This research is a review of the use of nanotec

Abstract:

Progress in earthquake geotechnical engineering in the past 10 to 12 years is reviewed. Developments in understanding foundation behaviour and also liquefaction are described briefly. It is explained that perhaps the greatest advance in the period is the interpretation of the substantial amount of site response data which has come to hand. This clarifies earlier controversy about the contribution of nonlinear soil behaviour to site response. Findings show that it is possible for stiff soil sites to behave in a linear manner for quite large peak ground accelerations but for softer soils signifi

Abstract:

Fibrous structures based on natural fibers have gained a key space when it is required to perform functions like separation, drainage, filtration, protection and soil reinforcement. The use of natural fibers turns engineering work more sustainable, since they are renewable, biodegradable, energy efficient and non-toxic raw materials. In this work, the influence of degradation caused by UV rays, heat and moisture on the mechanical behavior of vegetal natural fibers used in geotextiles, including sisal, coir and banana fibers, was studied. Natural fibers have been subjected to accelerate aging a

Abstract:

The Canadian geotechnical engineering community has completed a major collaborative 5 year research project entitled the Canadian Liquefaction Experiment (CANLEX). The main objective of the project was to study the phenomenon of soil liquefaction, which can occur in saturated sandy soils and is characterized by a large loss of strength or stiffness resulting in substantial deformations. In many areas of Canada, large structures are constructed on or comprise sandy soils, e.g., some major hydroelectricity earth dams and many tailings impoundments in the mining industry.

Abstract:

Soft soils such as clay soils, mostly if they comprise swelling minerals may produce great damage to structures, particularly when these soils are exposed to wetting and drying situations. The geotechnical properties of soft soils could be enhanced by utilizing chemical additives. In this paper, granite waste dust was used to adjust the properties of clay soils. This paper investigates the effect of granite rock dust on the geotechnical properties of soft soil.
