So far coredrilling (8 cores/km) is predominantly used for evaluating pavement layer thickness in taking over process of new pavements in Estonia. Coredrilling is accurate but time consuming, costly and destructive method, providing very limited information about...
Sand tailings dams have historically been the most commonly used technology for tailings storage in Chile. Although engineering advances have resulted in the construction of approximately 250m high facilities, some operational challenges still remain, including...
Identifying tailings layers susceptible to static liquefaction, particularly for contractive soils, is a fundamental question considered by geotechnical engineers involved with the design, construction and operations of tailings storage facilities (TSFs). To determine...
In this paper, the application of geostatistical models to 71 tests with a dynamic probe super heavy DPSH Grizzly® carried out during the last 7 years over a wide area of the northern sector of the city of Punta Arenas is presented. This sector is characterized by...
