Description

Designing structures on hillsides presents unique engineering challenges and limited economic options for site design. This monograph from the Springer Series in Geomechanics and Geoengineering examines the use of building frames as retaining elements, known as Rigidly Framed Earth Retaining Structures (RFERS). This technical resource provides deep insight into the relationship between temperature and earth pressure acting on these specific structures. The findings are based on a comprehensive 4.5 year monitoring program of a heavily instrumented, in-service structure. The research data reveals that the coefficient of earth pressure behind the monitored RFERS maintains a strong linear correlation with temperature changes. This book serves as a vital resource for professionals studying soil structure interaction and the complexities of unbalanced lateral earth pressures. By understanding these thermal effects, engineers can better approach the design and maintenance of buildings used as retaining elements in challenging topographical environments.
