Liquefaction of Earth Embankment Dams
Paul C. Rizzo Associates, Inc. (RIZZO) has developed efficient computational tools to evaluate the liquefaction potential of earth embankment dams located within high risk seismic regions. Two relevant case histories are the Saluda Dam and the Santee Cooper East Dam Extension, both structures susceptible to liquefaction, and located in South Carolina. Saluda Dam presents liquefaction risks with...
متن کاملLaboratory Studies on the Effect of Vertical Gravel Column Drains on Liquefaction Potential
Abstract: In recent years deadly earthquakes in seismic areas have caused special concerns regarding liquefaction phenomenon by researchers and specialists. Excess pore water pressure in loose sediments may cause phenomena such as boiling, shearing strength and dynamic stiffness reduction and lateral movements cause difficulties. Many remedial methods such as soil replacement with proper materi...
متن کاملLiquefaction Triggering Criterion Using Shake Table Test
Earthquake induced liquefaction in saturated granular soils is an important phenomenon causing severe damages. In order to minimize the ill-effects due to liquefaction, various lab tests, field tests are being used which assess the liquefaction potential. In the present study the shake table test has been used for assessing soil liquefaction of loose saturated cohesionless sand by simulating ea...
متن کاملChapter 2 Literature Review on Liquefaction and Ground Densification for Liquefaction Mitigation
One of the most dramatic causes of damage of structures during earthquakes has been the development of liquefaction in saturated cohesionless deposits. These deposits have tendency to densify when subjected to earthquake loading. However, when saturated, the tendency to densify causes the excess pore water pressure to increase. This, in turn, results in the effective stress of soil to decrease....
متن کاملOn the Optimum Placement of Dissipators in a Steel Model Building Subjected to Shaking-Table Tests
The following research presents the numerical and experimental results obtained on a reduced scale steel model of a medium-rise building structure dynamically protected with energy dissipaters. The steel-steel friction dissipates energy as the structure undergoes interstory drifts. A preliminary numerical analysis is performed to determine the best position of the friction dampers in the longit...
