Refined numerical modeling of a laterally-loaded drilled shaft in an MSE wall
TL;DR: In this article, a full-scale experimental study was conducted in 2007 and the results of the simulation were compared with the data from the experimental study in terms of the load-deflection curves of the drilled shaft, the deflection profiles of the MSE wall facing, the lateral earth pressure increase on the mSE wall, and the strain increase in geogrid reinforcement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical analysis of a laterally loaded shaft constructed within an MSE wall
TL;DR: In this article, a full-scale field study was conducted to investigate the behavior of shafts within the reinforced zones of MSE wall, subjected to lateral loads, and three-dimensional numerical analyses were performed prior to the construction of this test wall to guide its design and after the field test using the actual material properties (i.e., Class-C prediction).

TL;DR: In this paper, the results from the lateral load tests of three shafts tested together as a group compared with shafts that were tested individually were used to evaluate the shaft group effect and the effect of shaft distance from the back of the wall f...

Behavior of Laterally Loaded Shafts Constructed Behind the Face of a Mechanically Stabilized Earth Block Wall
TL;DR: In this paper, the capacity of 36-in. diameter vertical shafts constructed behind an MSE wall with a height of 20 ft based on full scale field testing is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capacities and Deflections of Laterally Loaded Shafts Behind Mechanically Stabilized Earth Wall
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the lateral load capacity of a 36-in. (0.914m) diameter shaft supported by the reinforced mass of a 20-ft (6m) tall MSE block wall without considering lateral loads.
