Correlation between point load strength index and uniaxial compressive strength for hard crystalline rock

Jayasinghe JMSTW [Thesis-Abstract]

Large scale constructions such as highways, bridges, high rise buildings, jetties etc. are designed to withstand heavy loads depending on the dead loads and imposed loads on the structure. For this purpose, loads from ...
Effectiveness of subsurface drainage and vegetation in enhancing the slope stability :

Kankanamge LUM [Thesis-Abstract]

Slope instability, triggered by excessive rainfall, is one of the common geo –hazards that geotechnical engineers are challenged with in tropical countries such as Sri Lanka. Typically, these slope failures are initiated ...
Improvement of peaty clays by deep mixing and preloading

Saputhantiri, DR [Thesis-Abstract]

One major problem related to construction on peaty clay deposit is the low shear strength of the soil. However previous researches have shown that the shear strength could increase significantly by mixing with cement and ...
