2001/9/11As a result, engineers resort to the simplified relationships prescribed by Caltrans to estimate the abutment–backfill soil capacity and stiffness (CALTRANS, 2006). Based on passive earth pressure tests and the force deflection results from large-scale abutment testing at UC Davis, a value for the initial stiffness is derived proportionally to the backwall height:

AN OVERVIEW OF THE CALTRANS BOREHOLE GEOPHYSICAL

Most geotechnical investigations involve drilling and coring to collect samples, measure subsurface properties, and develop lithologic logs. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) supports a statewide borehole geophysical logging program to

The manual also appears to have removed example problems solved using SNAILZ software (by CalTrans) in favor of the FHWA's own Soil Nail Analysis Program (SNAP) 2 software. I guess we're going to have to get familiar with that software as well. I'm

Caltrans Geotechnical Manual

Caltrans Geotechnical Manual Design and Analysis To perform geotechnical analysis and design of the soil nails, Snail Software, which is owned and maintained by Caltrans, is recommended. The current version of Snail implements the design methodologies of GEC No. 7, and includes features for the design and analysis of the soil nails and structural components of the wall face.

Geotechnical investigation

Geotechnical investigations are performed by geotechnical engineers or engineering geologists to obtain information on the physical properties of soil earthworks and foundations for proposed structures and for repair of distress to earthworks and structures caused by subsurface conditions.
