Description

Reclamation has a need to perform research on earthquake induced liquefaction of silt soils. Reclamation is responsible for safety of dams, which in some cases contain these soils in their foundations. The research will improve the ability to predict behavior of these soils in earthquake loading. The research consists of performing laboratory experiments to illustrate the behavior of silts in cyclic loading and correlate the results to common field tests. This research will be a competitive research and development contract to geotechnical engineering universities in the United States. Rating criteria - Previous work with cyclic loading of silt and critical state parameters which have already been developed. Experience with model cone penetrometers in the laboratory. Available shear testing equipment, triaxial compression, extension, simple shear. Cost. Schedule. All correspondence should be directed to email address, mludwig@do.usbr.gov.
