Abstract:Foundation settlement calculation has been a difficult and hot problem in geotechnical engineering study. The problems lies in the large differences between the geotechnical parameters of field and indoor test. The using of the tangent modulus method based on the field loading test to determine the calculation parameters can overcome this shortcoming, and reflect the non-linear of foundation settlement, which is a new progress of foundation settlement calculation. However, compared with other tests, the in sit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
