This paper describes the experimental work carried out under ‘PROPWALL’, a research project on the seismic performance of embedded walls in saturated sand carried out by Transnational Access to the Turner Beam Centrifuge of the University of Cambridge. The experimental equipment, the model preparation and the monitoring devices are described in detail. The results are presented in terms of accelerations, wall deflections, bending moments and excess pore pressures, as monitored by means of the devices installed on the walls and within the soil mass.

Abstract
This paper describes the experimental work carried out under ‘PROPWALL’, a research project on the seismic performance of embedded walls in saturated sand carried out by Transnational Access to the Turner Beam Centrifuge of the University of Cambridge. The experimental equipment, the model preparation and the monitoring devices are described in detail. The results are presented in terms of accelerations, wall deflections, bending moments and excess pore pressures, as monitored by means of the devices installed on the walls and within the soil mass.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
