Tests upon thin domes buried in sand
Development of testing systems and procedures are discussed and first experimental results presented; test bin and loading frame; placement of sand; load capacity of unburied domes; instrumentation for tests with buried domes; test results are given with regard to compressibility of sand; "arching" before yield, stress required to cause yield and behavior following yield; it appears certain that type of small-scale test described can be of great use in studying fundamental aspects of soil-structure interaction problem.
