... of another. The data were used to evaluate hydraulic conductivity and compaction conditions and to compare the results with quality control testing and acceptance standards of the clay prior to construction. The variability of the test results is evaluated and checked against the acceptance standards...

... response is addressed in the accompanying theme lecture paper by Dobry. The topic of this paper is the state-of-the-practice of seismic hazard analysis. The actual practice of seismic hazard analysis varies tremendously from poor to very good. The large variability in practice is not simply a reflection...

...A GEOSTATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF THE SUBSOIL AT THE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT OF ANGRA 2, BRAZIL S. R. Xavier 1, Inoue, N. 1 and C. Romanel 2 ABSTRACT The main objective of this work is to use geostatistical methods to estimate the spatial variability of the subsoil at the site where the nuclear power plant...

Paper Number: ISRM-IS-2000-184
... ABSTRACT: This paper focuses on the typical inherent variabilities for the basic properties of natural geomaterials. The issue of measurement error, which is closely related, is noted when necessary. The results of an extensive literature review on inherent variability are presented...

Paper Number: ISRM-IS-2000-220
... ABSTRACT: This paper presents compressibility data for some of the residual soils in the Auckland area. These soils are unusual in two respects. First, presumably because of the residual origin of the soils, the water content is highly variable even within the confines of a block sample...

... ABSTRACT: Full scale load test data give very variable and sometimes very low shaft resistance for large diameter bored piles founded in Hong Kong decomposed granite. These observations were discussed and explained in this paper. INTRODUCTION Large diameter bored piles in Hong Kong...

... as the failure path "steps up" on other subvertical discontinuity sets within the mass and by shearing through and/or tensile failure of the intact rock and/or rock mass "bridges" between the discontinuities. Geotechnical assessment of the mean and the likely statistical variability in the shear strength...

... of measured soil properties and the associated spatial variability structure. Variogram analyses indicate that a Stationary Random Function of the second order yields a satisfactory model for spatial variability. Using this model, virtual undrained strength fields that are conditioned to available field...
