Soil Bioengineering for Slope Stabilization and Site Restoration
Soil bioengineering is the use of living plant materials to construct structures that perform some engineering function. Often, soil bioengineering is used to treat sites where surface Continue reading
A Study of the Effect of Length to Diameter Ratio on the Results of Pressuremeter Tests
The pressuremeter is one of the most commonly used devices in in-situ testing, because the interpretation method is relatively easy on the assumption that the pressuremeter is Continue reading
Cavity Expansion Theory and Its Application to the Analysis of Pressuremeters
The successful application of in-situ testing of soils heavily depends on development of methods of interpretation of the tests. The purpose of this Continue reading
The Analysis of Offshore Foundations Subjected to Combined Loading
Shallow offshore foundations, which achieve their stability through the foundation bearing on the seabed, can in most applications be Continue reading
An Analytical Study of the Cone Penetration Test
The quasi-static penetration of a cone penetrometer into clay can be formulated as a steady state problem by considering a Continue reading
The Contractors Choice of Material for Sewer
This report is performed in collaboration with NCC Construction Sverige AB and treats sewers from the contractors’ point of view. The report investigates in an overall way how the work with sewers works in a contract company and which factors that speak for the Continue reading
Ground Improvement Techniques for Railway Embankments
Modern railway infrastructure demands a high level of performance in terms of settlements and stability of the railway track. In areas where loose or soft cohesive deposits are found, ground improvement is often Continue reading
The Use of Electrokinetics to Enhance the Degradation of Organic Contaminants in Soils
The application of an electric field to contaminated soil specimens and the resulting electrokinetic phenomena have been combined with Continue reading
Finite Element Studies of Reinforced and Unreinforced Two-layer Soil Systems
The purpose of this study is to obtain an insight into the mechanisms by which a geosynthetic membrane influences the performance of Continue reading
Mechanical Properties of Concrete Incorporating Used Foundry Sand
Metal foundries use large amounts of the metal casting process. Foundries successfully recycle and reuse the sand many times in a foundry and the remaining sand that is termed as Continue reading
