  1. 11. Cone penetration testing in the clay tills of Skåne - An investigation of the cone factor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Johan Lindström; [2017]
    Keywords : Geotechnical engineering; Cone Penetration Testing; CPT; Clay Till; Skåne; Undrained shear strength; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The undrained shear strength is a key parameter in the design process of geotechnical structures. One of the most frequently used methods to investigate this parameter is the cone penetration test (CPT). READ MORE

  3. 12. Numerical analysis of vibrations due to impact pile driving

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Sebastian Andersson Olivecrona; Rasmus Sulander; [2016]
    Keywords : Finite element method; Concrete pile; Impact pile driving; Ground vibrations; Soil mechanics; Soil dynamics; COMSOL Multiphysics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Vibrations originating from constructional work can affect the nearby soil and structures. Depending on the properties of the vibrations, these can result in settlements in the soil and damages to existing structures. Along with blasting, impact pile driving is one of the greatest sources of vibrations on a construction site. READ MORE

  4. 13. Design Model for Driven Concrete Piles According to Eurocode

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Linnea Jacobson; Viktor Karlsson; [2015]
    Keywords : spetsburen; betongpåle; påle; konstruktion; pålning; geoteknik; Eurokod; geokonstruktion;

    Abstract : Pålning är en vanlig grundläggningsmetod för att överföra laster från överliggande konstruktioner genom svaga eller instabila jordlager till fasta jordlager eller berg. En typ av påle som ofta används är den slagna spetsburna betongpålen som slås ned genom till exempel lös lera till fast berg. READ MORE

  5. 14. The Effect of Matric Suction on Total Stability Evaluations in Clay

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Robin Tvrdek; [2015]
    Keywords : Finite Element Method; Matric Suction; Soil Water Retention Cruve; Total Stability Evaluation; Excavation; Clay; Factor of Safety; Unsaturated Soil; Capillary Rise; Sheet pile; Plaxis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this master´s dissertation I investigated if it is possible to increase the total stability for excavations in clay, if suction is taken into account during the calculations. The work has been performed at, and in cooperation with, Sweco Civil AB as well as the Dept. of Construction Sciences at Faculty of Engineering LTH, Lund University. READ MORE
