The piled embankment represents one of the solutions for realization a soil body on compressible subsoil where extended settlement or insufficient stability threatens serviceability related structures. Widely adopted analytical design procedures were analyzed: Marston’s formula and Hewlett Randolph method contained in British standard BS 8006-1, German regulation EBGEO Dutch CUR 226. Using thes...

This research paper validates the significance of an assimilated attitude when choosing design subgrade railways constructed from fine sands in difficult engineering and geological conditions desert steppe territories Uzbekistan to ensure their sustainability with modern technologies materials. The analysis results obtained calculations stability coefficient structure embankment. characteristic...

The seaward slope of embankment that experience erosion due to washing soil particles from the wave action might resulting become steeper by time and posing a threat closest residents. objective this research is examine existing protection methods for Senggarang Coastal Embankment (SCE) in terms functionality performance. This paper explores possible success failure factors performing stability...

On the afternoon of Saturday 4th March 1989 two trains, both bound for London Victoria Station, collided. Part of the rear train rolled down a steep railway embankment and jack-knifed against a tree. The mechanism of the crash and the injuries sustained by the 55 victims who were seen in the A&E Department of the Mayday University Hospital are described. Improvements in signalling technology an...

Objective and Scope of Project The objective of this project was to develop recommendations for compaction of cohesionless soils used as backfill materials. The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) utilizes a number of sources of cohesionless soils as fill materials for embankment construction and as backfill for mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls. Some problems have been experienc...

The article defines the reduction of active ground pressure and amplitude-frequency characteristics by theoretical practical studies on approaches to bridges driving reinforced concrete piles into embankment. Reinforced were driven model roadbed, vibrations created using a vibrator mounted piles. frequency these oscillations was 50 Hz, values recorded at different points roadbed. Processing obt...

There is a worldwide interest in the proper design of embankment dams to resist earthquake loadings. For the first time in Iran, a complete ambient vibration survey due to low-level loads such as wind, machinery activities, low level tectonic activities, and water exit from bottom outlet was performed on Marun embankment dam. These kinds of ambient vibration tests are suitable for manifesting t...
