STRESS-STRAIN RELATIONSHIPS IN LARGE SOIL MASSES

This report presents the field data and theoretically analyzed results of stresses and deformations in three highway embankments. The theoretically predicted soil stresses and deformations by the finite retrically predicted soil stresses and deformations by the finite element method agree reasonable well with these field data. with these field data.
