Abstract

This paper investigates strength of Can Tho soft soil mixed with cement and effect of the incorporation fly ash ratio on strength the mixed soil. The strength in terms of unconfined compressive strength of the mixtures was determined in the laboratory and used to evaluate strength of the soil cement mixing. The soil was blended with cement at proportion from 100 to 500 kg cement per cubic meter of soil to test the strength of the mixtures and propose a proper amount of cement for soil cement mixing. In addition, a number of tests was conducted for the soil mixed with different ratios from 10% to 50% of fly ash to cement to seek for suitable replacement of fly ash to cement and strength of soil mixed with cement and fly ash. As a result, the study shows that the strength of Can Tho soft soil improved with cement can reach above 1000 kPa when it mixed from at least 300 kg cement for a cubic meter of soil. When fly ash is incorporated, if the ratio of fly and cement is less than or equal 20%, the strength of the soil mixing is change not much and the replacement of cement by fly ash is suggested to limit to 20% to reach the strength nearly 1000 kPa. Additionally, the axial strain of cement-treated soil specimens with and without fly ash reduces very significantly to just under 2.5% compared to above 14% that of natural soil specimens.

Abstract

In this study, the strengthening effect of the carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheet was studied. Four groups of specimens were designed, each of which has three specimens. The specimens were strengthened with 0 layer of CFRP sheet, one layer of CFRP sheet, two layers of CFRP sheet, and three layers of CFRP sheet, respectively. An experiment was carried out through the third-point loading method. Compared with the unreinforced reinforced concrete (RC) beams, the load of the beams strengthened with CFRP sheet significantly increased. Taking the ultimate load as an example, compared with the RC beams, the RC beams strengthened with one, two and three layers of CFRP sheet increased by 7%, 19%, and 23%, respectively; under the same load level, the mid-span deflection of the beam reduced, and the anti-deformation ability significantly improved. The experimental results show that the CFRP sheet can improve the bearing capacity of beams and can be further applied in practical engineering.

Abstract

The Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has come into play an important role as a useful tool in the situation of land subsidence monitoring in Thailand. We conduct research studies on the subsidence of Bangkok and its vicinity area using InSAR techniques. We processed 40 Radarsat-2 images from October 25, 2018, to May 25 to 2019, making the observation point at over 400,000 points, which is dense and noble to shows patterns of subsidence areas on a broad scale, with an average pixel density of 55 points per square kilometer and 100 points per square kilometer in the city. The subsidence rate of the ground ranged from -34.20 to +35.70 mm per year. The spatial data obtained from the InSAR technique is consistent and has characteristics that can effectively show the magnitude and the change in the level of groundwater content. We can conclude that the monitoring of land subsidence in Bangkok and its vicinity areas will be effective when using the InSAR technique as it can be processed throughout all seasons and allowing the leveling survey to be spaced out of time.

Abstract

Abstract The Kaligandaki basin is a snow-fed river system. It encompasses Trans-Himalayan to the Gangetic plain through Higher Himalayan, and Lesser Himalayan zones and Siwalik. This region is exposed to extensive landslides and flood hazards and are susceptible to massive land use and land cover changes every year. The present study deals with land use land cover (LULC) changes and river dynamics of the Kaligandaki river valley from Jomsom to Kusma between the years 1988-2017 using GIS as a tool. The study further focuses on change in river courses with depositional and erosional areas that further causes fluctuations to the sediment area. Decadal LANDSAT images of 30m resolution were considered for the study over 3 decades divided into five stages 1988, 1995, 2000, 2008, 2017. Radiometric correction for those images were done using QGIS, Supervised Maximum Likelihood (SML) classification into six classes viz., water bodies, forest, shrubland, agriculture and grassland, settlement, sediment and bare land, snow were applied. Analysis shows that the Kaligandaki river is a sinuous river. The bankline shift is highest (84.7109m) from 1995-2000 in the upper part of Jomsom and Lete where the width tends to fluctuate the most due to the wide floodplains and the lowest (0.20836m) from 2000 to 2008 in the lower sections where the river is more narrow. In almost three decades , water bodies in the study area has an overall decrease of 1% (15.76 km²); Forest and shrub land decreased by 5% (80.31 km²); Agriculture and grassland increased by 1% (16.22 km²); Settlement increased by 4% (67.23 km²); Sediment and bare land increased by 2% (29.42 km²) and snow cover decreased by 1% (16.81 km²).

Abstract

The study was conducted using seismic reflection and electrical resistivity methods including several techniques such as electrical resistivity imaging, seismic refraction and seismic reflection to determine the stability of the dam. The survey used a case study of Krasiao-Dam in Dan-Chang district Suphan-Buri Thailand. Krasiao-Dam is valid for a period of several years, suiting our study. The electrical resistivity data was processed and presented as 2D underground cross section. An integrated data analysis of these two results were verified of possible leakage position or risk location as it needed to be tested by conventional engineering testing methods. Seismic survey results indicate that the dam layers structure; which included compaction soil, is shown with the wave speed as between 400-900 m/sec, ground improved layer and bed rock has a higher signal speed of 1,000 m/sec.

Abstract

Numerous investigations on piles' behavior in soft ground have been concerned with single piles' bearing capacity and settlement behavior. Relatively, little is known about the implications of installing group piles, such as the lateral displacement caused by driving piles into soft ground. The mechanism of lateral displacement of the ground and the boundary wall (BW) of residential buildings due to the timber pile installation in the soft ground was investigated by a series of three-dimensional (3D) finite element analyses and field measurements. Based on the numerical analyses, the magnitude of the lateral displacement of the ground in the construction site has been quantified at first in this paper after investigating the mechanism in terms of installation patterns, machine movement, auger drilling, type of the pile, the distance of the nearest row of the pile to the BW, and stiffness of the fill material. Then the construction methods to minimize lateral displacement of the boundary wall have been proposed in this study.
