THE BÍLINA TUNNEL – SELECTED GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF A PROPOSED UNDERGROUND STRUCTURE
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2022)
Every workday the city of Bílina, with the I/13 road running through it, suffers from traffic congestion. The road is designed as dual carriageway outside Bílina but only as a single carriageway inside the city. Three ...
THE IMPORTANCE OF A COMBINED 3D MODEL OF GROUND AND GEOTECHNICAL STRUCTURE
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2022)
The rapid progress of digitalisation in civil engineering is also happening in the branch of geotechnical engineering. BIM is a part of this process. The mutual connection of a 3D model of ground with a 3D model of ...
CONSIDERATIONS FOR BRITTLENESS IN TAILINGS
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2022)
Brittleness is an important geotechnical parameter of soils as it describes the degree of reduction of the soil shear resistance after reaching the peak strength. [1] described soil brittleness by means of a brittleness ...
CALCULATION OF SEISMICALLY LOADED EARTH RETAINING STRUCTURES
(České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2022)
Eurocode 1998-5 for the design of earth retaining structures in seismic conditions describes calculations using the Mononobe-Okabe method. This simplified quasi-static procedure is to some extent very conservative. The ...
