CALCULATION METHOD FOR EARTH PRESSURE CONSIDERING DISPLACEMENT

The calculation of earth pressure is a difficult problem in the pit foundation design. Aiming at the problem, the earth pressure calculation formulas considering the displacement are proposed. A method for determining the limit displacement is given and it is convenient for use. The result indicates that the earth pressure calculated by the formulas is between the earth pressure at rest and the Rankine earth pressure, the formulas can reflect the change rules of active and passive earth pressures along with the displacement. Moreover, the calculation result using the formulas is approximate to the monitoring result. It confirms the validity of the formula deduction and the rationality of the calculation results. As for the passive earth pressure, the calculation method is theoretically feasible.

Simplified method for predicating consolidation settlement of soft ground improved by floating soil-cement column

A simplified method is presented for predicting consolidation settlement of soft ground improved by floating soil-cement column on the basis of double soil-layer consolidation theory. Combining the axisymmetric consolidation model and equal strain assumption, the governing equation was derived for the consolidation of clayey subsoil reinforced by soil-cement column. By modifying the boundary condition of the interface between the improved layer and underlying layer on seepage and pore-water pressure, the analytical solution of consolidation of soft ground improved by floating soil-cement column was developed under depth-dependent ramp load. The results of the parameter analysis of consolidation behavior show that the consolidation rate is closely related with the depth replacement ratio by the column and the permeability of upper layer. The influence of column-soil constrained modulus ratio and radius ratio of the influence zone to the column on consolidation is also affected by depth replacement ratio. The column-soil total stress ratio increases with time and approaches the final value accompanied with the dissipation of excess pore water pressure.

Stress and Displacement Distribution of Soft Clay Slope with 2D and 3D Elastoplastic Finite Element Method

Based on elastoplastic model, 2D and 3D finite element method （FEM） are used to calculate the stress and displacement distribution in the soft clay slope under gravity and uniform load at the slope top. Stability analyses indicate that 3D boundary effect varies with the stress level of the slope. When the slope is stable, end effect of 3D space is not remarkable. When the stability decreases, end effect occurs; when the slope is at limit state, end effect reaches maximum. The energy causing slope failure spreads preferentially along y-z section, and when the failure resistance capability reaches the limit state, the energy can extend along x-axis direction. The 3D effect of the slope under uniform load on the top is related to the ratio of load influence width to slope height, and the effect is remarkable with the decrease of the ratio.

Centrifugal model test and numerical simulation of vertical earth pressure on soft foundation box culvert

To obtain the vertical earth pressure on a soft foundation box culvert and investigate the interaction of the soil-culvert-foundation system, both a centrifugal model test and a numerical simulation were conducted and the comparisons with the current methods to determine the load on a culvert were completed. The results of the model test and numerical analysis are in satisfactory agreement, which shows that the direction of the shear stress between the culvert and the adjacent embankment depends on the differential settlement between them. A vertical earth pressure concentration appears on the culvert with a rigid piles foundation because of a downward shear stress. The ratio of the load on a soft foundation culvert and the overburden pressure above the culvert raises first and then decreases as the backfill height increases. In order to reduce the load on a culvert, it is suggested to limit the stiffness difference of the foundations under the culvert and embankment and to use a light backfill over the culvert.

Corrosion Processes in the Concrete of the Dams

During the whole operation life of Bratsk and Ust-Ilimsk hydroelectric plants, chemical analysis of water filtering through the pressure front of the concrete dams was under systematic monitoring by sampling in places of concemrated outcome in the inspection galleries of a dam. Long-term cumulative observations made up a basis for study of the indicated dams concrete corrosion caused by the Angara water in the process of its filtration through the cracks formed in the period of the dam erection, through construction joims and other defects. Mathematical-statistical analysis allowed the classification the processes of corrosion from the point of view of their time dynamics and divided them correspondingly into stationary （stable） and non-stationary. On the basis of a calculation of the cement stone componem removal along with the ideas of the process dynamics the pressure from filtration developmem forecast has been made and their danger level has been estimated. The developed conception is of rather a general character and can be used when analyzing the state of concrete dams of the Angara cascade and other similar cases.
