(Continued from TRIS 334813). Embankments built on potentially unstable slopes (This paper was presented in French); Stabilization of creeping slope in clay with stiff elements; Deformations of membrane-faced rock fill dams; Field measurement of an anchored sheet pile wall in clay; Pause clause predictions for motorway embankments; The duisburg method of metro construction--an example for establishing large underground civil engineering projects in flowing groundwater; Design parameters determination from precise levelling; Consolidation parameters of a soft clay layer improved by means of vertical drains; Recent findings concerning allowable differential settlements of structures--criteria of damage.
