    Lateral Bearing Capacity Calculations

    Can anyone tell me how to convert vertical bearing capacity into horizontal bearing capacity? Or, if the vertical cannot be converted to horizontal, how do you calculate the horzontal bearing capacity? Any references would be most helpful. We are designing a pipeline that will be anchored at...

    Soldier Pile wall with Tiebacks-Software?

    Thanks again for the quick response. Would you (or someone else reading this) mind providing me with a list of some references that cover some of these other non-highway related methods in detail? I'm not familiar with the other commonly used methods that are out there and would like to be.

    Compaction Testing

    Hello, Could someone give me some insite about different methods of determining field compaction of building/pipeline subgrades. I know of the nuclear desometer but have also heard that it is not very accurate with crushed rock. Is there anything out there that can quantitatively determine...

    Calculating the Unit Weight of In-Situ Soils

    Yes, Sorry! I meant to type density instead of specific gravity in the 2nd sentance. :)

    Calculating the Unit Weight of In-Situ Soils

    Can anyone out there give me insite on current testing methods for calculating the In-situ unit weight of soils? We are constructing a gravity sewer and would like to calculate the specific gravity of the material we are excavating, so we can backfill with a similar weight material. Any help...

    Soil Bearing Capacity Test

    Could someone tell me more about the pocket pentrometer? Is it reliable for estimating approximate soil bearing capacities? I've also been reading about ASTM D 1194-94 Standard Test Method for Bearing Capacity of Soil for Static Load adn Spread Footings. Has anyone out there ever performed...
