Abstract:Understanding how soil varies spatially is necessary in order to accurately quantify the reliabil ity of geotechnical infrastructure. For long linear infrastructure such as flood embankments, incorporating vertical and horizontal scales of fluctuation can have a significant impact on stability assessments. This paper presents preliminary results and discussion from a field test designed to determine the vertical and horizontal scales of fluctuation of a Croatian flood embankment. A series of 15 CPTUs were carr… Show more
