I am looking for design data to establish the numerical model with SIGMA/W.
Actually, I searched a lot of research paper in order to seek for range of design value about soil parameter (e.g. Young modulus, friction angle and poission's ratio) of compacted fill, granular filter and selected fill but I cannot find it.
My question is could I find the range of design value of soil parameter from BS code? if yes, which one is related to the geotechnic design?

(Sorry for my poor English and I hope you could understand what I ask....)
 
It sounds to me that you have little to no experience in characterizing a site from the geotechnical perspective. In my view you should NOT be trying to develop design data for SIGMA/W; get a geotechnical type to help you along - remember GIGO with computer models . . .
 
Actually, I dont know my geotechnical knowledge is rubbish before doing geotechnical fyp
thanks for your reply...
