Satellite-based Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has been used by the geoscience community for many years to obtain ground deformation measurements of large-scale spatial features. Researchers have also ...

is within-site variability, which describes the variability of foundation resistance across a site. Within-site variability is attributed to geologic variation across a site and to differences in construction outcomes among foundation elements. Published...

Slope failures are not only hazardous to the public, but they are also costly to maintain and repair. A field testing program involving five test sites has been executed in an effort to develop better design practices for slopes reinforced...

Using micropiles for slope stabilization is a proven technique but there are many uncertainties with how load is transferred from the soil to the structural elements. A large-scale model was constructed to test model slopes ...

The objective of this work is to provide experimental data to improve prediction of limit loads for micropiles in slope stabilization applications. The experimental data were obtained from tests of 1-g model slopes 8 ft ...
