This report includes the detailed nonlinear seismic analysis of a 150-m guyed telecommunication tower. The tower is located in Little Buffalo, Alberta. Canada. and its detailed data was provided by LeBLANC & Royle Telcorn Inc.. Oakville, Ontario. and AGT Limited. Edmonton, Alberta. It has 7 guying stay levels, 7 sro~lndanchor :roup\. and 3 stabilizers or outriggers along the mast. The detailed geometry of the tower is shown in Fig. I.
This tower is one of the eight towers studied by Amiri (1997) in his Ph.D. research.

EAB - Recommendations on Excavations 2014 - 3rd Ed.
Author(s)/Editor(s): German Geotechnical Society | Size: 2.551 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Ernst & Sohn | Year: 2014 | pages: 325 | ISBN: 978-3-433-60398-7
Once the 4th edition was complete in 2006, Anton Weißenbach stepped down from his position as chairman after more than 40 years and retired from the working group along with a number of other long-term members.
Following this, one of the main emphases of the Working Group on Excavations – now under the Chairmanship of the undersigned – was Recommendation R 102 “Modulus of subgrade reaction method”, presented in draft to the professional community, completely revised, in 2011 in the journal Bautechnik.
In line with the imminent introduction of the Eurocodes as binding building regulations it became necessary to adapt the 4th edition of the Recommendations to the provisions of DIN EN 1997-1:2009, in conjunction with National Annex DIN 1997-1/NA:2010-12 and the supplementary regulations
of DIN 1054:2010-12. All Recommendations were thoroughly examined, revised where necessary and adapted to accommodate recent developments.
The experienced user will note that the revisions to this 5th edition are relatively minor. It was possible to retain the majority of the tried and tested regulations, because the safety philosophy has not altered in principle compared to the 4th edition.

Duncan - Buchignani - An Engineering Manual for Settlement Studies
Author(s)/Editor(s): J. M. Duncan - A. L. Buchignani | Size: 13.75 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: University of Berkeley | Year: 1976 | pages: 97
The purpose of this manual is to provide a simple, practical guide far settlement studies.
It is concerned with (1) settlement problems and building damage due to settlement, (2) methods of estimating settlements of shallow foundations on sand, (3) methods of estimating immediate, consolidation, and secondary compression settlements of shallow foundations on clay, (4) methods of estimating settlements of pile foundations, and (5) methods of eliminating, reducing, or coping with settlements.

Correlation between drained shear strength and plasticity index of undisturbed overconsolidated clays
Author(s): K. K. Sorensen - N. Okksel
Published By:Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Paris 2013
Published Year:2013
Size: 0.715 MB
Quality:Original Preprint
Abstract: A number of triaxial compression tests have been performed by The Danish Geotechnical Institute over the past decades on undisturbed overconsolidated Danish clays; ranging from clay till of low plasticity to extremely high plasticity marine Tertiary clays.
The test results confirm that the drained peak angle of shearing resistance can be related to the plasticity index, though a large scatter is generally seen.
Based on the results and a review of published data a conservative relationship between drained peak angle of shearing resistance and plasticity index for undisturbed overconsolidated clays is proposed.
The proposed relationship and the interrelation to the effective cohesion are discussed.

Combines a thorough theoretical presentation with the practical aspects of foundation design. The first three chapters offer a condensed version of the basic elements of soil mechanics. The remaining chapters deal with the design of diverse types of foundation components, retaining rock structures and site improvement.
