Abstract:

Proceedings of the Specialty Conference on Performance of Earth and Earth-Supported Structures held at Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana, June 11-14, 1972. Sponsored by the School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University and the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division of ASCE. Performance of Earth and Earth-Supported Structures contains dozens of papers covering a broad range of relevant issues in earthen structure performance. Topics include embankments on soft ground, earth and earth-rockfill dams, shallow foundations, deep foundations, and soil-structure interaction. These proceedings will be of interest to both practitioners and researchers working with earth and earth-supported structures.

Subject Headings: Shallow foundations | Deep foundations | Dam foundations | Soft soils | Embankment dams | Earthfill dams | Colleges and universities
