Each parameter threatening the stability of the slope enhances the magnitude of the required reinforcement force and vice versa. Moreover, the yield acceleration increases with the increase in soil shear strength parameters but decreases with the increase in the slope angle. The comparison of the present work with some of the available solutions in the literatures shows a reasonable agreement.展开更多

The study was performed observing the behavior of reinforcements which were put in samples submitted to accelerated carbonatation tests and accelerated tests under the effect of chlorides. For the evaluation, intensity corrosion measurements were used using the Pr （polarization resistance） technique, employing these measures as a deterioration indicator. Three types of cement available in the national market were used. The obtained results enabled the classification of the used cements, comparing their profile behaviors in the conditions of the proposed tests.展开更多
