    Need information on helical anchors

    Anyone have case histories for helical anchors used in California under seismic loading conditions (approx 10km from San Andreas Fault)? AB Chance website has one case, but it relies on the existing foundation for lateral resistance.

    Geotextile reinforced slope with cohesive backfill

    I am looking for references for geotextile reinforced slopes with cohesive backfill. I am aware that typically cohesionless soils are used for backfill, however, it is desireable to use the onsite cohesive soils if possible due to the large area.

    slope stability analysis of geotextile reinforced slope

    Are there slope stability programs which can analyze a geotextile reinforced slope, or do I need to use finite element analysis?

    Phase II Environmental Site Assessment

    Does a Phase II ESA only include testing of soil, groundwater, and soil gas? If there is a structure at the site which may have lead paint and/or asbestos tiles, do these need to be tested as part of the Phase II? It was not clear from reading the ASTM.

    rotational spring for a pile cap

    I am looking for a method or reference for calculating the rotational spring value for a pile cap in sandy soil. The soil about 4 feet below the bottom of the pile cap is liquefiable. Is it conservative/sufficient to multiply the rotational spring for an individual pile by the number of piles...
