We are considering sheetpiles as an option for some future SOEs. What do you think about the reasonability of the following guidelines for sheetpile installation:
Residual Soils (S1 and S2): The S1 stratum has blow counts of 16 bpf or less and the S2 stratum has blow counts between 16 and 60...
Can any one help me in calculating the Poissons ratio? If we have done with triaxial test and we only have axial strain in hand. Is there anyway to calculate lateral strain from stress path or any other source. Because you know poissons ratio is lateral strain/axial strain. Help is really...
Could any one tell me about the books written by these authors.
1) The Triaxial Test
2) The measurment of soil propertiesin the triaxial test
From where I can buy them. I have searched Amazon.com but invain.
Thanks

Pressuremeter test
Is there any ASTM standard for both Pressuremeter test in soils and rock? I found ASTM D4719 but that is for soils. Can we use this method for rocks too.
Can a plain cement slab (3500 psi)on grade 6 inch thick resist a 60 ton crane loaded with concrete panels(41 ton) lifting them and placing them on the wall?. Can this floor slab resist this much load (41 ton +self load of crane)without any structural defect like cracking in the slab on grade?
