Settlements and Consolidation Rates under Embankments in a Soft Soil with Vertical Drains
In this paper, a study was carried out in order to estimate settlements and consolidation rates under embankments constructed on Moroccan soft soils. Settlement measurements in several embankments in High Speed Railway project between two Moroccan cities, Tangier and Assilah, were analyzed. The objective of this study is to estimate settlement values and settlement rates, with sufficient prec...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Analysis of Soft Soil Consolidation improved by Prefabricated Vertical Drains
A system of prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) with a surcharge load is an effective method for accelerating soil consolidation by promoting radial flow. This study presents a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model for soft soil improved by a single drain. In the finite element analysis, the actual rectangular PVD cross-section is considered, and the equivalent drain diameter is then bac...
متن کاملA large-strain radial consolidation theory for soft clays improved by vertical drains
A system of vertical drains with combined vacuum and surcharge preloading is an effective solution for promoting radial flow, accelerating consolidation. However, when a mixture of soil and water is deposited at a low initial density, a significant amount of deformation or surface settlement occurs. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce large-strain theory, which has been widely used to manag...
متن کاملAnalysis of soil consolidation by vertical drains with double porosity model
The soil around a drain well is traditionally divided into smeared zone and undisturbed zone with constant hydraulic conductivity. In reality, hydraulic conductivity of the soil changes continuously and it may not be always appropriate to approximate its distribution with two zones. In this study, the horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the soil is described by an arbitrary function of radial ...
متن کاملComparison of Radial Consolidation Behavior of Clay under Three Types of Cyclic Loading
Vertical drains and stone columns which have been used in infrastructure construction for highways, ports, coastal regions, etc., provide significant benefits for improving soil characteristics such as reducing the drainage length and accelerating the consolidation process. So the investigation of the radial consolidation is inevitable. Soils may be subjected to cyclic loading such as silos, ta...
