Description

A 1/4 plant model was constructed on the gravelly soil in Hualien, Taiwan, and the backfill material of crushed stone was placed around the model plant after excavation for the construction. The rigidities of the gravelly soil and the backfill material relate to the seismic behavior of SSI, so their rigidities were investigated in detail. The change of the elastic wave velocity of the gravelly soil were measured according to the performance of each stage of excavation, construction and backfill. And the distribution of the mechanical properties of the gravelly soil and the backfill are measured after the completion of the construction by penetration test and PS-logging etc. (author). 5 refs., 11 figs
