Dams and embankments 782110 CONSOLIDATION DURING CONSTRUCTION OF EARTH DAMS Cavounidis, S; Hoeg, K J G e o t e c h E n g n g D i v ASCE, V103, N([fl0, 1977, PI055-I067 An amalytical model for the consolidating of a zoned earth dam during incremental construction is used in a finite element computer program. A~tusl loads anl changes in volumetric strain are considered as generalised loads. The changes in pore-water pressures, total and effective stresses ard displacements that these loads produce ere followed throughout the construction period. Results are presented for a simplified 2-zone earth dam asst~ming both li*~sar and nonlinear elastic properties for the soil skeleton;
