Net pressure analysis of cantilever sheet pile walls
There are many methods for the analysis and design of embedded cantilever retaining walls. They involve various different simpli®cations of the net pressure distribution to allow calculation of the critical retained height. In the UK, it is commonly assumed that net pressure consists of the sum of the active and passive limiting pressure values. In the USA, the net pressure is commonly simpli®e...
متن کاملHRPP379-Time-dependent reliab... of anchored sheet pile walls
Flood defence maintenance strategies require understanding of the time-dependent behaviour of flood defences. Quantitative risk and reliability methods provide a rational decision-making basis for flood defence management. Failure mechanisms influencing the flood defence reliability are expressed by a limit state equation and organised in a fault tree. One or more random variables in the limit ...
متن کاملPractical Nonlinear Analysis for Limit Design of Reinforced Masonry Walls
Two modeling techniques for practical nonlinear static analysis are implemented to support the development and usage of a new Limit Design method for special reinforced masonry shear walls. The new seismic design alternative is under consideration for future versions of the building code requirements for masonry structures in the U.S. The proposed simplified models were applied to a planar one-...
متن کاملStudy of Loose Soil Layer Effects on Excavations Supported by Steel Sheet Pile Walls – A Numerical Study
Abstract Steel sheet pile walls are being widely used in civil engineering projects for support systems. Soil is not uniform in depth, sometimes may be exit loose or soft soil layer in various depth. This issue can cause different effects on ground surface displacements, forces and moments acting on sheet piles and struts during excavation procedure, compared with status that soil is uniform...
متن کاملUltimate Limit State Assessment of Stiffened Panel Structures for Very Large Ore Carrier via Nonlinear Finite Element Method
Reduces weight of hull structures designed for a very large carrier plays an important role as the economic efficiency is the most significant aspect. It is known that the traditional allowable working stress approaches with high safety and reliability, it means that the hull structural weight is higher than the actual requirement in operation. Recently, the limit state approach has been widely...
