Settlement of Residual Soils
The method previously suggested by the author in 1977 for calculating settlement of non-plastic to slightly plastic Piedmont Physiographic Region residual soils is reviewed. Additional...

Investigation of Excavatability in the Piedmont
The lateral and vertical variability of rock weathering in the Piedmont presents significant problems in evaluating the probable cost of excavation for deep basements, pipeline, road cuts,...

Pressure Injected Footings in Piedmont Profiles
Comparatively little has been published on the behavior of pressure injected footings in the Piedmont residual soils and weathered rocks. It is the purpose of this paper to describe some...

Design of Drilled Piers in the Atlantic Piedmont
The philosophy and methods of drilled pier foundation design in the Atlantic Piedmont are described. Consideration is also given to the unique characteristics of decomposed metamorphic...

Drilled Piers in the Piedmont?Minimizing Contractor-Engineer-Owner Conflicts
Drilled piers are used extensively in the Piedmont Physiographic Region, deriving support primarily from end-bearing on hard rock. Cost extras and contractor-engineer-owner conflicts are...
