water had washed the clay out of seams in weathered rock thus creating huge s ~ n ~ l e s . The most satisfactory 8nd economical of the remedial measures investigated was to bridge the damo~ed area with a tw~-w~ reinforeed earth slab. An added safety measure was the In~ection of cement-flyash grout into the reinforced earth. C~ms%ructiom coets and construction time were subst~mtial~ less than those for a concrete slab. 1659 COP~,MD Problems a%-bendi~ use of h i ~ e r s % r e ~ t h concrete in tbln arch dams. 5R. J . A ~ .CO~CR. INST. ,VT~, N~, AER. 1975, P138-1~0. The use of higher stremgth concrete in thin arch ~a,~ would usually result in greater eccmo~ through reduced concrete volume necessary to meet safety requirements. Higher strength ccmcrete would tend to rednce deflections is the dam and ma~ ~-K~ove the strength of constructicm Joints and permit earlier form removal. Disadvnntages encountered with the use of higher strength c~mcrete include: d e v e l o ~ t of stress concentratlcms, particularly is the foundation for the dam; tendency toward more crackin~ in concrete; increased tem~arature control probless; and complications i n v o l v e d w i t h openings throu6h the dam and roadways over the dam.

The earthquake loads which should be considered is design of fill-type ~ have increased in importance rec e n t ~ when a number of high fill-type dams are being constructed. The smthors s t ~ the stability and the response of fill-type dams under esrthquake by m~del tests. Altbou~h model studies have certain shortcomings derived from the scale effects, they are sure to offer the effective means to the study of the effect of vibration on the dam body. The obJects of the program of the model studies are as follows: (I) to visualize the mechanlsm of the deformation: (2) to exam~-e the yielding acceleration: (3) to examine the mode shape: and (4) to evaluate the effect of the restraint by valleys on the natural period.

The paper ex~-dnes the effect of friction between soil and the sides of the sample box on data obtained from plane strain earth pressure tests ~m model retaining walls in sand. The relevant literature is reviewed and it is concluded that the side frietion can have a significant elf. ect on t h e measured f o r c e s . A new ~e%hod o f calculation, based on that of Sokolovskl, is developed to provide a quantitative estimate of the m ~ t u d e of the effect of friction. It is found that the effects of side friction are greatest when the sides of the sample box are rough, the angle of internal friction is high, the wall is relativel~ narrow, and the sand is subjected to passive fallure. %*no sm~]l effects of side friction on observed defor-~ticms are c(~sidered.
