Abstract
AbstractPerhaps the most widely used non‐linear elastic soil behaviour law uses the hyperbolic functions to define tangent modulus and Poisson's ratio versus strain.1,2 This paper presents the results of analytical studies with the hyperbolic elastic finite element technique for the prediction of static earth pressures against a 10‐story basement wall. Carefully performed laboratory tests of the backfill material and measurements of earth pressures during backfilling provided the basis fora, refinement of the current hyperbolic elastic method. The refined analysis resulted in closer agreement of calculated earth pressures with measured values.
