Shallow foundations with inclined-eccentric loads

An experimental program to develop factors that account for the effect of inclined-eccentric loads on shallow foundation bearing capacity.  Sponsor: Florida Department of Transportation. PI :Scott Wasman

Bearing resistance of cantilever sheet pile walls

An experimental program to measure the bearing and skin friction resistance of cantilever sheet pile walls to support vertical bridge loads and lateral earth pressure loads. Sponsor: Florida Department of Transportation. PI: Xiaoyu Song

Simulation and measurement of offshore seabed pressures

An experimental program to calibrate mine surrogates instrumented to monitor seabed pressures during mobility. Sponsor: Office of Naval Research. PI: Scott Wasman
