Stability of an Embankment on a Partially Consolidated Foundation
A test fill was built on a section of embankment north of Boston with the objective of determining the appropriate strength parameters of Boston Blue Clay for stability analyses. Predictions of the fill elevation to cause failure, made before the field test began, are based on Unconfined Compression, Unconsolidated Undrained traixial, field vane and SHANSEP (Stress History and Normalized Soil Engineering Properties) undrained strengths. The Simplified Bishop and the Morgenstern-Price procedures of stability analyses are used for the predictions which are compared with the actual field test results.
