Lateral Earth Pressures and Related Phenomena
While theories concerning the action of granular masses, as to planes of rupture and of friction, and as to lateral pressures, etc., are fairly numerous, they are not at all concordant in the results they produce, and these results are not in accord with the few experiments thus far made public, or with common engineering practice in the design of structures having to do with such granular substances. It is hoped that the experiments herein described will throw some light upon the subject, aid designers in getting nearer to the requirements in actual cases, serve to correct some errors in the several theories, and form a nucleus around which to build practicable working rules or perhaps a theory which will indeed agree with fact.
