Usmg the numerical techmque for solvmg nonhnear simultaneous equatmns, the new method of analysts ts developed for the design of eccentric and/or mchned loaded ngld pdes m clay The method takes account of the nonhnear stress-stram charactensucs of the sod around the pdes and can be used for round, rectangular and other symmetric ngld piles The computed results using this method were found to be m good agreement w~th the measured values of some field tests and laboratory model tests Auth
The use of geotextdes m pavement constructaon to prevent contammatlon of aggregate base by subgrade fines, with consequent change m gradauon, strength, and permeabthty, Is studied Geotextdes modify the process of mtrusmn, the level of stress at the interface, and the process of filtratmn Laboratory tests have been c a m e d out to evaluate the mfiuence of fines on the sttffness of an aggregate base Results are discussed w~th reference to strength and drainage requtrements of forest roads

An analysts of laterally loaded pdes ts presented which ts based on an extension of the elastic boundary element analysts and takes account of sod yleldmg It ts an alternatwe to the well known p-y method Input sod parameters are mternai friction and one charactensmg the vanaUon of sod suffness with depth Results mdtcate that sod yteldmg has a stgmficant mfluence on pde bendmg moments and lateral displacements Equations statable for routine design are presented Theoretical results agree well with pubhshed case histories
A method for calculatmg the elastic settlement of a foundation on a sand layer ts proposed, which uses the conventmnal settlement equauon, but where the mfluence factor which accounts for stratum depth and foundation shape ts adJusted to a reduced mfluence depth, taken to be a maximum of 5X the foundauon width but not more than stratum depth A number of settlement cases exammed usmg this procedure show very good results It ts not necessary to make large adjustments to sod elastic parameters
