In this study effectiveness of lime stabilization and geocell reinforcement techniques of roads was investigated for low bearing capacity subgrades. For this purpose, a large-scale plate load test was designed and used. Clayey soil with high moisture content was reinforced with different percentages of hydrated lime (5%, 10%, 15% dry weight of the soil). The deflection and stress results indicated that lime stabilization or geocell reinforcement alone did not significantly increase subgrade reaction coefficient and bearing capacity values. Promising results were obtained on stabilization of weak subgrade when both techniques were used together. It was determined that cellular reinforcement increased the reaction modulus coefficient value and bearing capacity of the subgrade soil by more than 15% compared to the lime stabilization.

This paper presented a comparative study of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) stub columns with three different confinement types from carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP): outer circular CFRP, inner circular CFRP, and outer square CFRP. The compressive mechanism and physical properties of the composite column were analyzed firstly aiming at investigating the confinement effect of CFRP. Ultimate axial bearing capacity of these three CFRP-confined CFST columns was calculated based on Unified Theory of CFST and elastoplastic limit equilibrium theory, respectively. Meanwhile, the corresponding tests are adopted to validate the feasibility of the two calculation models. Through data analysis, the study confirmed the ultimate strength calculation results of the limit equilibrium method were found to be more reliable and approximate to the test results than those of Unified Theory of CFST. Then axial bearing capacity of the pure CFST column was predicted to evaluate the bearing capacity enhancement ratio of the three types of composite columns. It was demonstrated that the averaged enhancement ratio is 16.4 percent, showing that CFRP-confined CFST columns had a broad engineering applicability. Through a comparative analysis, this study also confirmed that outer circular CFRP had the best confinement effect and outer square CFRP did better than inner circular CFRP. The confinement effect of CFRP increased with the decrease of concrete strength, and it was proportional with relative proportions of CFRP and steel under the same concrete strength.

Assembled steel pipe pile, which is a novel pile foundation, is developed in the paper. The ultimate uplift bearing capacity of the pile is proposed, and simulation by Plaxis3D and the corresponding experiment are performed to verify the theory. In the simulation, ultimate uplift bearing capacity of the assembled steel pipe pile and ultimate lateral frictional resistance of the interface of pile-soil increases with the increasing of the strength and stiffness of the interface of pile-soil, and with the increasing of length-diameter ratio, ultimate uplift bearing capacity of the assembled steel pipe pile increases while the ultimate lateral frictional resistance decreases gradually. The ultimate lateral friction is influenced by both of the strength of the soil around the pile and the interface of pile-soil, and the ultimate uplift bearing capacity obtained by simulation and theoretical calculation are close. Long-gauge FBG sensors are used in the experiment for measuring the longitudinal strain of the pile, and the error of ultimate uplift bearing capacity between the results of experiment and theory is less than 10%.

12 RC columns were made, including nine RC columns wrapped with BFRP, three RC columns without any reinforcement, to conduct the comparative study of axial compression. The result shows that the bearing capacity of the RC columns reinforced with the fibers increases obviously.The displacement ductility factor increases, but its increase rate becomes slow with increasing layers of fiber cloth, so the most economical layer number is 3. Based on the confinement mechanism of FRP cloth and the calculation formula of the bearing capacity for common RC column, the formula of the bearing capacity for reinforced RC column with BFRP cloth is proposed. The result of calculation basically tallies with the number in experiment.

How to deal with a conflict between blasting vibration damage of tunnels construction with complex shallow and the efficiency has been always a difficult technical problem. Relying on the Chang Hong Ling tunnel which under-traverses the Jiangchi Town, using of field monitoring method to comparative study on the blasting vibration under different blasting scheme construction, research shows that: the up-step of non-blasting excavation + lower-bench of controlled blasting technique, successfully controls the surface blasting vibration speed within 1.5 cm/s.Then the tunnel can be constructed safely and rapidly, which provides a reference for the blasting excavation engineering in urban.
