In ground improvement projects with prefabricated vertical drains, the duration of the preloading period is set in advance
based on the predetermined time rate of consolidation of the compressible layer. If prediction is accurately done, the required
degree of consolidation is met at the pre-determined preloading time. As such, there is a requirement for in-situ tests to be carried out just prior to the removal of surcharge to assess the degree of consolidation of the improved ground.
In-situ tests were carried out after 23 months of surcharge loading at the In-Situ Test Site within the Changi East Reclamation Project in the Republic of Singapore. In-situ testing works in this research study comprises the use of field vane shear, piezocone, flat dilatometer and self-boring pressuremeter.
The in-situ tests were carried out to determine the shear strength and degree of consolidation of the Singapore marine clay at Changi
after 23 months of surcharge loading. The In-Situ Test Site consisted of a Vertical Drain Area as well as an untreated Control Area. Both areas were located adjacent to each
other and were surcharged simultaneously to the same level and surcharge left in place for a period of 23 months. Comparison
was made between the in-situ test results of the Vertical Drain Area and the untreated Control Area. 相似文献

The jet grouting technique was originally initiated in the UK and progressively developed following the needs for larger geometries, ease of implementation, economic rationality, and better mechanical properties. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the development and practice of jet grouting through some fundamental concepts and relevant case studies. Subsequently, a laboratory testing program is performed to investigate the factors affecting the efficacy of the twin grouting system. The principal objective of this study is to define the suitable conditions for the jet grouting efficacy regarding economic rationality as well as quality control. For the first phase, a particular emphasis is placed on the properties of jet columns, site geological conditions, implementation methods, and the justification of each selected treatment option, while the second phase mainly focuses on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests. It follows that the mono-fluid jet grouting system presents a valuable flexibility in dealing with complex configurations; yet, the double- and triple-fluid systems are more indicated for cases of mass treatments for which large portions of space must be treated and overlapping is fundamentally important for the reliability of the treatment. Furthermore, it was established that the efficacy of the twin-jet method primarily relies on the proper adequacy of some critical parameters, namely, the cement content, the water-cement ratio, and cement slurry-water glass ratio. In spite of some uncertainties inherently related to the technique, the UCS test represents the quintessential laboratory index for evaluating the mechanical properties of grouted elements, deriving jet grouting efficacy and the economics of jet grouts. 相似文献

Ultra-soft soil with high moisture content will experience large strain deformation under one-dimensional compression with
little or no gain in effective stress. Such deformation behaviour does not comply with Terzaghi’s effective stress gain theory.
The e-log sv¢ \sigma_{v}^{\prime } relationship of ultra-soft soil is non-linear with large compression index in the first order of log cycle. This paper proposes
three compression indices (Cc1* C_{c1}^{*} , Cc2* C_{c2}^{*} and Cc3* C_{c3}^{*} ) for stresses covering three log cycles. Good prediction of settlement magnitude is possible with these newly proposed compression
parameters for ultra-soft soil. In addition, implicit finite difference model applying the large strain theory is also proposed
and validated with results from laboratory measurements. The time factor curves for ultra-soft soil with large strain compression
are also proposed and validated. 相似文献

An engineering geological study was undertaken to determine the engineering properties, and mineralogy of ultrasoft soils (USS) obtained from a nearshore mine tailings sedimentation pond. The USS is a high plasticity clay of high water content and low shear strength. Marine bathymetric and seismic reflection surveys were undertaken in the sedimentation pond located in the foreshore of the Eastern part of the Republic of Singapore. Specimens collected from the bore holes were tested to determine the engineering and mineralogy properties of the USS. Field vane shear tests were undertaken just adjacent to the sampling bore holes to determine the shear strength properties of the USS. The mineralogical properties of the USS were determined using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope techniques. The USS is under consolidated soil where higher density and lower water content were found at deeper depth. The USS had three different compression indices under three log cycles of effective stress between 1–10, 10–100, and 100–1,000 kPa. This is the main characteristic of USS, which diverts from reconstituted soil. The outcome of this research is fundamental for understanding the compression behavior and subsequently the development of a constitutive model for USS, typical found in sedimentary pond. 相似文献

In situ dissipation tests provide a means of evaluating the in situ coefficient of horizontal consolidation and horizontal
hydraulic conductivity of soft clays. Dissipation tests by means of piezocone (CPTU), dilatometer (DMT), self-boring pressuremeter
(SBPT) and BAT permeameter (BAT) were utilized in the characterization of the coefficient of horizontal consolidation and
horizontal hydraulic conductivity of Singapore marine clay at Changi in a land reclamation project. Dissipation tests were
carried out prior to reclamation as well as after ground improvement with vertical drains to compare the changes in the coefficient
of horizontal consolidation and horizontal hydraulic conductivity prior to and after ground improvement. Tests were carried
out in a vertical drain area as well as in an adjacent untreated control area after 23 months of surcharge loading, for comparison
purposes. The purpose of this research is to determine the horizontal consolidation parameters of Singapore marine clay prior
to reclamation as well as after 23 months of surcharge loading with and without vertical drains by means of in situ dissipation
tests. 相似文献

The Varushanad hills forms the eastern offshoot of the Western Ghats and the Cumbum valley divides the Varushnad hills from the Western Ghats. Investigations were carried out in about 1700 sq Km comprising the Cumbum valley and the Varushanad hills of the Western Ghats situated in Periakulam Srivalliputhur and Usilampatti taluks of Tamil Nadu on the geological and geomorphological aspects. Remote sensing techniques were used and limited field checks were made. Visual interpretation of aerial photographs on 1:60,000 scale was carried out for identifying the geomorphological features, drainage pattern and lithology. Digital analysis of the Landsat computer compatible tape (CCT) path-row 154–053 was also carried out to delineate major lithological variations. Major lineaments were also mapped from the Landsat imagery and false colour composite. The rock types of the Cumbum valley and the Varushanad hills are mainly charnockites, granite gneiss and pink granites which have been deformed by folds and faults. The various geomorphological units of the area are ridges, valleys, bazada zone and pediment zone of mountain complex. Resources evalution studies on the potential zone of ground water and possible construction materials were also discussed. 相似文献

The article outlines a procedure of pre-feasibility analysis of planned rural water supply pipeline grids in India. Usually, these type of pre feasibility studies prior to actual implementation, is carried out based on ground surveys and is time consuming. In this work, we use thematic spatial data, such as geomorphology and landuse–landcover along with digital elevation model (DEM) to carry out the pre-feasibility assessment of proposed pipeline grids. DEM generated from CartoSat-1 stereo data has been used to understand the possible topographic hindrances along the planned pipeline route and optimise the same. Further, topographic data also indicates the possible routes of gravity assisted flow. The geomorphology thematic data interpreted from Resourcesat-1 LISS III imagery is used to identify possible geomorphologic hindrances along the pipeline route. Similarly, landuse–landcover information derived from Resourcesat-2 LISS III images, was used to assess the land use/cover impact of the planed pipeline corridor. This has been demonstrated, in the current article using a hypothetical pipeline route. The activity can be carried in a specially designed geo-spatial interface in NRSC/ISRO Bhuvan geoportal. This type of assessment can prove to be time saving and cost effective at a pre-feasibility stage. 相似文献

Characteristics of Singapore Marine Clay at Changi 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Singapore marine clay at Changi is a quartenary deposit that lies within valleys cut in the Old Alluvium. It is locally known
as Kallang formation. The pre-reclamation site characterization and laboratory testing was carried out by conducting marine
sampling boreholes, in situ dissipation tests and field vane test. In situ dissipation tests were conducted with the piezocone,
flat dilatometer, self-boring pressuremeter and BAT permeameter. The purpose of the site characterization was to determine
the consolidation characteristics, strength characteristics, stratigraphy, and mineralogy of Singapore marine clay. The consolidation
properties of marine clay are required prior to land reclamation activities in order to predict the magnitude and rates of
settlement with the expected fill load and future service load as well as for the design of soil improvement works. The shear
strength properties are required for slope stability analyses during reclamation and for the stability analyses of shore protection
works. Clay mineralogy tests and photographic identification of the marine clay was carried out to determine the mineralogical
properties and to visually record the marine clay colour and texture. 相似文献
