The Use of Pore-Pressure Coefficients in Practice

摘要: Synopsis The pore-pressure coefficients defined by Skempton (1954) have been applied to the problems of determining effective stresses in an earth dam during construction and rapid draw-down. Reference is made also several other practical applications these coefficients. Les de pression interstitielle definies par ont ete appliques aux problemes du calcul des tensions efficaces dans une barrage en terre, tours ainsi que durant un affaissement rapide. Il est fait mention egalement diverses autres ces
