Read MoreEngineers have worked to clear 100 tonnes debris from a landslide that closed the road and railway line near Falls of Cruachan. Debris and boulders also fell onto the A85 Oban to Bridgend road, closi...
Read MoreMany engineers are faced with challenges in defining a soil profile with CPT points. They are often provided with a soil classification chart which allows them to estimate the soil layering of the...
Read MoreIntroduction This article depicts how the pile analysis under lateral loading, or couples is improved in RSPile by updating the pile flexural stiffness during the solution in cases of piles with com...
Read MoreThe "gift that keeps on giving" is a famous English phrase that implies a gift that gives enjoyment again and again. Per this definition, the Shear Strength Reduction (SSR) method of slope stability...
Read MoreRocscience adds Synteen Geogrids to its 2D Limit Equilibrium tool, Slide2. Toronto, ON: Expanding our Slide2 Geogrids Library to include manufacturers from around the world means more flexibility and...
Read MoreWhen it comes to open pit mines, generally, the steeper the slopes, the greater the ore extraction, but at what cost to safety? This is an age-old question for geotechnical engineers working in the m...
Read MoreBuild One Model, Not Two The accuracy of your results is always dependent on the inputs. All this to say, you shouldn’t assume that any model is 100% correct. However, running the same analysis with...
Read MoreSlope failure induced by rainfall is a common geotechnical problem in tropical locations with abundant soils; landslides in Hong Kong are one such example. Soils found in tropical locations typically...
