Sentence examples for soil designs from inspiring English sources

Classical retaining structures and conventional reinforced soil designs are limiting points of a continuous spectrum of potential solutions.

Engineered soil designs have been developed to increase soil volume for trees planted in confined spaces, and past research has shown that these designs improve growing conditions.

Even modest progress can be stopped short by another mass-casualty attack on Indian soil designed to disrupt improved ties.

Out in the parking lot, parents and students will be encouraged to observe the exposed part of a "bioswail," that is, layers of gravel and soil designed to filter and clean rainwater naturally before it is recycled.

They are also the major source of uncertainty in the choice of the soil design parameters.

Different ground motion coherency losses were considered based on the New Zealand soft soil design spectrum.

Elastic wave velocity and electrical resistivity have been commonly applied to estimate stratum structures and obtain subsurface soil design parameters.

One end of this range is a conventional retaining structure without soil reinforcement, while the other end consists of a heavy (strong and long) reinforcing system with almost insignificant wall (conventional reinforced soil design is close to this limit).

The limiting situations of conventional reinforced soil design and classical (non-reinforced) retaining structures correspond to particular cases in which these parameters are equal to 0 and 1, respectively.

In this study, for reconstituted soils with various volumetric percentages of coral fragments up to 44% (coral particle fraction of 59%) as the densest package, a series of triaxial CU-bar and CD tests was conducted to study the determination method for the soil design parameters in consideration of the interaction between the soil skeleton, consisting of coral fragments, and the silt matrix.

For the particular example considered in the present study the cost of the optimal solution is 47% of the cost of classical cantilever wall without soil reinforcement and 65% of the cost of the conventional reinforced soil design which neglects the wall contribution during reinforcement design.
