| Summary: | The purpose of this research is to verify certain geotechnical assumptions for associated with lateral earth pressures using physical modeling. The model used of this study is made
of wood and Perspex. The static test with loading on top of sand decrease with depth which
is in contradiction with the theory. This result however can be explained by considering the
stress bulb theory where pressure due to loading generally reduces with depth. After some
improvement, the pressure distribution for sand without extra loading on top show a result
of lateral earth pressure which increase with depth. Furthermore, by adding a load on top
of the sand, a superimposed effect was observed which is the stress bulb distribution plus
the normal static lateral pressure distribution. A dough of wheat flour was also used as the
material and the result shows a pressure distribution increase with depth and partially
verifies the passive Rankine pressure. Test involving laterite material were too difficult to
conduct. |
