Increasing demand for developable space in urban areas has created increased interest in construction on top of old landfills. Landfill redevelopment projects can include hard uses such as commercial, industrial, or infrastructure facilities and soft uses such as athletic fields, golf courses, and amphitheatres. Engineering challenges associated with landfill redevelopment include foundation de...

For tunneling in urban areas, understanding the interaction and behavior of tunnels foundation adjacent structures is very important, various studies have been conducted. Superstructures areas are designed constructed with piled rafts, which more effective than conventional foundation. However, settlement a raft induced by mostly focuses on settlement. In this study, therefore, pile settlements...

To better understand the characteristics of seismic response nuclear power stations with fixed-base and pile-raft foundations, a series shaking table tests were performed. The included three cases: free-field soil, structure without superstructure foundation embedded in soil. One white noise excitation earthquake motions different intensity selected as ground motion to identify structure, raft,...
