Does anyone have reference sources, or personnal experience, with mechanical properties of burn dump ash? We need to do stability analyses to determine an appropriate slope angle for a soil cover on an existing mound, but we are not allowed to do any subsurface exploration and will need to use...
I am preparing a proposal to provide a geotech study for design & construction of a 30" sewer force main. Pipe material has not been selected. Channel crossings (to 25 ft deep) will be construced using trenchless methods. Soils are unconsolidated alluvial clay and sand beds. Typically...
