The settlement prediction is an important problem to railway subgrade design and construction in the collapsible loess region. Prediction of subgrade settlement is more methods through measured data in practical engineering. Based on the long-term monitoring data of settlement of loess subgrade at Lanzhou-Wuwei second-railway line, a new prediction model was put up and contrasted with other models such as Hyperbolic model, Logarithm model, exponential model and Poisson’s model. The results showed that the new model could be better predict settlement laws of loess subgrade, and agreed well with hyperbolic model forecast results, and proved the correctness of the model.

By the engineering background of Datong-Xian Passenger Dedicated Railway Line passing through the collapsible loess area, four representative test sections such as roadbed-bridge transition section, roadbed-culvert transition section, ordinary and special embankment section was selected. Different pile parameter and pile plane layout and subgrade filling measure has been taken according to the different test sections. At the same time, the correspondence of settlement monitoring project was carried out. After the long time monitoring, by the hyperbolic curve and logarithmic method predicting, the long-term settlement has been predicted. The monitoring results and the curve fitting shows that the settlement and the foundation treatment schemes with subgrade filling measurement meet the design requirement also provided reference and reference for other engineering.

When the bearing capacity of natural foundation cannot meet load requirements, generally the ground treatment usually can be taken to strengthen it. In this paper, from the practical engineering, the design, construction, and detection of the lime soil pile were introduced. The results show that the lime soil pile in collapsible loess area reinforcement technology foundation is feasible. The bearing capacity and stability of the treated foundation can meet the requirements.

The Naskapi Nation of Kawawachikamach is an Aboriginal community located in northern Quebec near the Labrador Border. Given the region’s rich iron deposits, the Naskapi Nation has considerable experience with major mineral development, first in the 1950s to the 1980s, and again in the past decade as companies implement plans for further extraction. This has raised concerns regarding a range of environmental and socio-economic impacts that may be caused by renewed development. These concerns have led to an interest among the Naskapi to develop a means to track community well-being over time using indicators of their own design. Exemplifying community-engaged research, this paper describes the beginning development of such a tool in fall 2012—the creation of a baseline of community well-being against which mining-induced change can be identified. Its development owes much to the remarkable and sustained contribution of many key members of the Naskapi Nation. If on-going surveying is completed based on the chosen indicators, the Nation will be better positioned to recognize shifts in its well-being and to communicate these shifts to its partners. In addition, long-term monitoring will allow the Naskapi Nation to contribute to more universal understanding of the impacts of mining for Indigenous peoples.
