BACKFILLING AND DRAINAGE OF BRIDGE ABUTMENTS AND RETAINING WALLS /IN GERMAN/

REPORTS ARE MADE ON THE RELATION BETWEEN ACTIVE EARTH PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION AND MOVEMENT OF THE STRUCTURE; THE RELATION BETWEEN WALL MOVEMENT, WALL FRICTION ANGLE AND ACTIVE EARTH PRESSURE; THE MINIMUM WALL MOVEMENT REQUIRED TO ACTIVATE ACTIVE AND PASSIVE EARTH PRESSURE; THE ANALYSIS OF EARTH PRESSURE AT REST; AND COMPACTION PRESSURE DURING AND AFTER THE BACKFILLING OF STRUCTURES. POINTS RELATING TO THE CONSTRUCTION AND COMPACTION OF BACKFILLS AND THE EFFICIENCY AND STABILITY OF FILTER LAYERS AND SOAKAWAYS ARE ALSO DISCUSSED /FG/RRL/
