    Gorund Uplift/Improvement by Resin Injection ?

    Thanks, EireChch.. Just one clarification - You mentioned Cement based resin - The one I have spoken to uses a two-component Rigid Polyurethane Foam System. Namely Polyol and Isocyanate. Inert materials hence I don't see an issue with long-term issues however I did ask for any accelerated...

    Gorund Uplift/Improvement by Resin Injection ?

    Can anyone guide me on How to estimate the Uplift/ Increase in Load Bearing Capacity by Resin Injection? I have spoken to a few providers of these solutions and they all work on the fact that it uplifts - hence proven improvement and they sometimes do DPC testing afterward. What about...

    Calculation of Design load and Wroking load for soil nails BS8006:2011 - TfNSW

    So basically, I am developing an Excel Design sheet for Soil Nailed Walls referencing AS 4678 and a design guide from Chris Bridges. I am stuck in finding out Ultimate Pullout Load which I need to find bond stress. I am using CIRIA 637 for reference. CIRIA 637 refers to clause 8.9.2 which...

    Calculation of Design load and Wroking load for soil nails BS8006:2011 - TfNSW

    Hi, I am a graduate student from Melbourne Australia and my senior engineer has given me a task to develop an Excel sheet on soil nails referencing AS 4678 which only provides guides hence working with BS8006:2011 and CIRIA C637. I am stuck on how to calculate the design load and Working...

    Friction resistance of no fines gravity wall

    @tristrium. I Have been advised by Redirock - Another large Big Block supplier to reduce friction by a factor of 0.8 when concrete is used - But I usually put broom finish on concrete in my notes to discourage smooth surfaces and still use a reduction factor although I am tended to use 0.9 over...
