The Winscar dam - a 53m high rockfill e m b a ~ e n t , in the UK is described. A ~ n g the many aspects considered is the placing of the asphaltic-concrete membrane on the upstream face to secure the impermeability of this water supply dam.

Conference. 7F, 2T,IIR. PROC.THIRD CONGRESS INT.SOC.ROCK MECH.,DENVER,1974, V2, PART B, 197h,P685-690. In order to estimate any discrepancy between behaviour of rock masses determined from in-situ tests such as plate-bearing tests, and actual behaviour as in dam foundations, the elastic deformation parameters consistent with reported displacements of three dam foundations are calculated and compared with those obtained from insitu tests. Special attention is paid to the treatment of the water-pressure distribution in the foundation.

A method for the evaluation of design characteristics of shear resistance of rock based on data from in-situ shear tests is suggested. The method makes allowance for the extent of scatter of experimental points due to random factors, and the difference between experimental and prototype conditions. 1630 pk~T.TI~GRINO, A Surface footings o n soft rocks. Conference. 9F,2R. PROC.THIRD CONGRESS INT.SOC.ROCK MECH.,DENVER,1974, V2, PART B,1974,P733-738 • A wide-ranging in-situ investigation involving plate load tests at the surface of the volcanic tuff of the Naples area is reported. The plate diameters were 300 and 500~n and repeated tests up to failure were conducted. Laboratory tests on core samples were used to study strength and stress-strain behaviour of the rock. A non-linear elastic finite element analysis of the problem was used to interpret the results, which may be used in the design of footings on soft rocks. 1631 WEll,HOLD, H Bearing capacity of bored piles in partially decomposed and fissured rock as well as in soils similar to rock.

Static stiffness coefficients, evaluated through a finite element analysis, are presented for rigid circular and strip footings e ~ e d d e d in an elastic stratum that rests on an undeformable base. In addition, a simplified method is presented for computing stiffness coefficients for footings that bear on layered media. Results indicate that while the depth of embedment significantly affects the stiffness coefficient for circular footings, the thickness of the stratum is less important. In the case of strip footings, however, the thickness of the stratum is more influential than the depth of embedment for all except the rocking mode. The differences in stiffness coefficients pertaining to circular and strip footings are important when selecting values for actual foundations of more general planform. Auth.

VIO 1, GT7, ~JLY, 1975, P633- 649. A full-sized drilled shagt, or drilled pier, was construe. ted in the field in a stratum of stiff clay. The foundation was instrumented so that bending moment could be measured at various depths. A series of lateral loads, both short-term static and cyclic, were applied to the foundation and families of bending moment curves, along with the boundary conditions at the groundline, were obtained. These data were analyzed and sets of curves wer~ developed showing soil resistance p as s function of deflection y for various depths. Equations are presented for the development of p-y curves for stiff clay, both for short-term static loading and for cyclic loading. The expressions were tested against available experiments and were found to yield satisfactory results. Auth.
