... on measurements at ground level. For sensitive construction sites, field trials are usually recommended. This paper presents results from a field trial for East West Rail Phase 2, where the new trackbed interacted with large-diameter, high-pressure gas pipes. In order to simulate the trackbed compaction...

... as an alternative way of dealing with the safety-related problems of conventional slurry disposal in reservoirs behind upstream dams. Incorporating a cementing agent into the tailings before compaction can enhance the overall geomechanical behaviour of these structures, giving rise to more stable and safer...

There are many mechanized construction processes which are potential sources of intrusive levels of vibration, including piling, vibratory compaction, dynamic compaction and tunnelling. These have been the subject of studies by many authors...
