  • An Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Tall Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls

    Creator:
    Strahler, Andrew W.
    Abstract:
    The implementation and construction of Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls has undergone substantial expansions in recent years, owing to its relatively low cost, ease of construction, and high efficiency compared to conventional retaining methods. As a result, MSE walls are being constructed to greater heights with complex features (e.g. multiple...

  • Bearing capacity and immediate settlement of shallow foundations on clay

    Creator:
    Strahler, Andrew W.
    Abstract:
    Shallow foundations are extensively used to support structures of all sizes and derive their support from near surface soils. Thus, they are typically embedded up to a few meters into the soil profile. Designers of shallow foundations are required to meet two limit states: overall failure of the soil beneath...
