Abstract:

Abstract Lateral efficiency of a building is very important in high-rise buildings, when it comes to building them on sloping ground it is highly required to design the structure for wind load and earthquake loads. The diagrid structure thus provides very high lateral stability and reduces the lateral displacement of the building. In recent years the diagrid structure has attracted many researchers and scholars due to this greater structural efficiency. Diagrid structural system has evolved to be structurally the most efficient, aesthetically pleasant and highly economical. The present paper involves the study of diagrid structure on sloping ground and comparing it with the conventional system and finding the optimum angle of diagrid on different slopes of ground. A 12- storey building is used for comparing diagrid structure and conventional structure on sloping ground, a 48 storey building is used to find out the optimum angle of diagrid on sloping ground, ETABS software Is used for modelling and analysis, response spectrum method is used for analysis, the results show that diagrid structure is more efficient than conventional structure on sloping ground, and the optimum angle of diagrid lies between 60-75° on sloping ground.

Abstract: This study draws attention on proper planning and construction practices for multi-storied buildings on sloping ground. However, in usual design practice the designers generally ignorethe behavior of the building due to the effect of sloping ground. The evaluation of a G+4 storey RCC structure on varying sloping angles (00 , 150 , 200 , 250 , 300 and 400 ) were studied and also compared with the flat surface. The evaluations of the structure were carried by the software STAAD Pro v8i to study the effect of slopes on building performance. The evaluation was done to figure out the effect of sloping ground on the forces applied on the structure. Soil interaction must be suitably believed from design point of view. The Research work triesto find the truth about the earthquake-related behavior of multi storey structures on sloping angles thinking about soil-structure interaction. The horizontal reactions, bending moment in footings and axial force, bending moment in columns were critically studied to put the effectsof different sloping ground. It has been followed that the footing columns of lower height attract more forces, because ofa big increase in their stiffness, which in turn increases the horizontal forces and bending moment. So, the section of these columns should be designed for changed forces due to the effect of sloping ground. It draws attention to the need for proper analysis and designing of the structure resting on sloping surface. Overall movement of the structure with respect to different sloping ground setups is also carefully studied.

Abstract:

The authors have derived the bearing capacity factor Nq on sloping ground based on the slip line method and have verified it using finite difference analysis. The bearing capacity factor Nγ on sloping ground is obtained by an iterative finite difference solution of the slip line equations, and the results are close to those from laboratory testing. Design figures for Nγ on sloping ground are prepared for rapid engineering use. For earthquake loading, the authors have applied the concept of equivalent horizontal acceleration and have derived Nq and Nγ based on slip line analysis.Key words: bearing capacity, slip line, finite difference, sloping ground, earthquake.

Abstract:

Wind load is one of the common loads for civil engineering structures viz. for long span bridges, tall buildings, towers and mast structures also. Wind load is acting on such structure throughout its life span. Therefore it is most important phenomenon to be taken into consideration for a structural engineer. Due to scarcity of land or due to mountainous terrains in North and North-East part of India most of the time structures are constructed on sloping grounds which is a challenge for structural engineer for analysis and design. These structures are also directly subjected to wind loads. India is also having large records of earthquake which left behind loss of many lives and heavy destruction to property and economy. Analysis of buildings in hilly regions with sloping grounds is somewhat different than the building located over a levelled ground. In present study 3D building frames of 25 storied building resting on flat terrain and sloping ground are taken into consideration. For sloping ground slopes of 20⁰,30⁰, and 40⁰ are considered. They are to be analyzed for wind speeds 39 m/s, 47 m/s and 55 m/s respectively. The modelling and analysis can be done using ETABS software which stands for extended three dimensional analysis of building system.

Abstract:

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR), Engineering and Technology's (E&T) Geotechnical Section, have completed a research-based field trial aimed at developing a repeatable methodology to carry out geotechnical boreholes on steeply sloping ground. This has been presented in the context of slope failures, whereby the utilisation of this practise will provide subsurface information, which is directly representative of the area of interest, rather than that which is outside the landslide extent (current general practise within Australia). It is expected that the information gained from adopting this practice will enable optimum design and remediation treatments for landslides within Australia, and subsequently contribute strongly to sustainable project outcomes.

Abstract:

Due to rapid urbanization and economic growth there is huge demand for construction of building. Since population density is high it led to construction of buildings on sloping ground, but this sloping grounds like hilly areas are more prone to earthquake which causes severe damage of life and property. The buildings constructed on hilly areas are different from buildings constructed on flat ground buildings on hilly areas have horizontal/plan, vertical, torsional, mass and many more irregularity. The structure irregularities are considered as one of the main fundamentals of its failure. Here we have done seismic analysis of a G+9 regular RCC building, C and I shape building of floor height 3m resting on sloping ground of horizontal angle of inclination 45o on zone II, Response spectrum analysis is done for three cases that is plain building and building with shear wall and bracings for all the three buildings, after analysis the response of the structures with respect to variation in the story drift, story displacement, base shear, story shear has been recorded and will be discussed and concluded.

Abstract:

The RC buildings' construction has increased in the preferred location of north & eastern hilly areas during the last few decades due to population increase, urbanization, and tourists. The buildings located in the hilly areas are more susceptible to seismic loading as compared to the location of the flat surface building. The shape of the building on the sloping ground differs from the flat surface situated buildings. So, the construction of the building on hilly areas are irregular both vertically & horizontally, thus this type of building is susceptible to severe damage when applied to the seismic condition. The column of the base storey having unequal height due to sloping ground. In this study, the behaviour of a 10 storey stepback building with mass and diaphragm irregularity on the sloping ground is analysed in seismic zone V by Response Spectrum. The analysis of the building is carried out by Etabs software as per IS 1893:2016 to compare the building based on their dynamic response and also identify the vulnerability frame in the sloping ground.

Abstract:

Based on the hypothesis that the penetration of a single pile can be simulated by a series of spherical cavity expansions, this paper presents an analytical solution of cavity expansion near the sloping ground. Compared with the cavity expansion in the half-space, the sloping free boundary has been taken into account as well as the horizontal free boundary. The sloping and horizontal free surfaces are considered by the introduction of a virtual image technique, the harmonic function, and the Boussinesq solution. The results show that the sloping free boundary and the variation of the inclination angle have pronounced influences on the distribution of the stress and displacement induced by the spherical cavity expansion. The present solution provides a simplified and realistic theoretical method to predict the soil behaviors around the spherical cavity near the sloping ground. The approach can also be used for the determination of the inclination angle of the slope according to the maximum permissible displacement.

Abstract:

This study aims to investigate the one-way cyclic lateral responses of piles in sloping ground by means of experimental and theoretical analyses. For this purpose, a series of laboratory model experiments were performed for different cases of cycle number, load amplitude, and slope angle, and lateral static loading tests on both level ground and sloping ground were conducted for comparison. Based on these experimental observations, the effects of cycle number, load amplitude, and slope angle on the pile head deflection and the profiles of bending moment and subgrade reaction are discussed. The pile deflection profile is difficult to measure directly owing to the restriction of experimental conditions, and thus a supplementary finite beam element method (FBEM) is provided to compensate for this deficiency. The comparisons between experimental and theoretical results demonstrate that the FBEM can well predict the pile responses in sloping ground, either under one-way cyclic lateral loading or lateral static loading.

Abstract: Wind has paramount importance in the field of civil engineering. Due to urbanization and increasing population density high rise building are coming up in large number. Therefore building frame resting on sloping ground and its analysis and design becomes essential so that the structure becomes more durable and serviceable. It is possible by various special programs and software. Software helps to design light weighted structure with good service life. This project studies the effect of wind velocity and structural response of building frame on sloping ground. For that three different building heights (G+8, G+10 and G+12) are considered. Ground slope (0°, 5°, 10° and 15° ) and wind zones (33, 39, 44, 47 and 55 m/s)has been considered. Comparative study of various parameters such as shear force, bending moment drift with the help of ETABS software gives appropriate result.

Abstract:

In India, for example, the north-east states. The scarcity of plain ground in hilly areas compels construction activity on sloping ground resulting in various important buildings such as reinforced concrete framed hospitals, colleges, hotels and offices resting on hilly slopes. The behavior of buildings during earthquake depends upon the distribution of mass and stiffness in both horizontal and vertical planes of the buildings. Various models were analyzed using staad pro. after all result and comparison it is found that buildings with set back and step back patterns give more stable pattern during earthquake.

Abstract:

AbstractThe mean, steady-state particle velocity in gravity-driven glacial flow over sinusoidal, sloping ground is computed using a Lagrangian description of motion. A Newtonian viscous fluid approximation is used for the ice. The glacier surface is free to move and is not subject to any stresses. At the bottom, the ice is frozen to the ground. The non-linear interaction between the basic downslope Poiseuille flow and the bottom corrugations yields a mean Lagrangian perturbation velocity that is always directed in the upslope direction near the ground. The requirement of mass balance imposes a mean negative surface slope in the corrugated region and an associated downslope perturbation flow in the upper part of the glacier. The no-slip condition at the wavy bottom induces a strong velocity shear in the ice, and particularly at the base. Analysis shows that the shear heating associated with shortwave perturbations could, in the case of a marginally frozen ground, lead to melting and subsequent sliding at wave crests along the bottom, while the ice stays frozen at the troughs. It is suggested that for glaciers the resulting high strain rates could lead to crevassing.

Abstract:

Seismically active areas are vulnerable to liquefaction, and the influence of liquefaction on pile foundations is very severe. Study of pile-supported buildings in liquefiable soils requires consideration of soil-pile interaction and evaluation of the interaction resulting from movement of soil surrounding the pile. This paper presents the results of three-dimensional finite difference analyses conducted to understand the effect of liquefiable soils on the seismic performance of piles and pile groups embedded in stratified soil deposits using the numerical tool FLAC3D. A comparative study has been conducted on the performance of pile foundations on level ground and sloping ground. The soil model consists of a non-liquefiable, slightly cemented sand layer at the top and bottom and a liquefiable Nevada sand layer in between. This stratified ground is subjected to 1940 El Centro, 2001 Bhuj (India) earthquake ground motions, and harmonic motion of 0.3g acceleration. Parametric studies have been carried out by changing the ground slope from 0° to 10° to understand the effects of sloping ground on pile group response. The results indicate that the maximum bending moments occur at boundaries between liquefiable and non-liquefiable layers, and that the bending moment increases with an increase in slope angle. The presence of a pile cap prevents horizontal ground displacements at ground level. Further, it is also observed that the displacements of pile groups under sloping ground are in excess of those on level ground due to lateral spreading. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-SP2021-07-05 Full Text: PDF

Abstract:

Based on the assumption that guardrail systems are placed in soil with horizontal ground, interaction behavior between soil and a post has been presented using some relevant theories such as the theory of subgrade reaction, Winkler’s spring theory, and the nonlinear p-y curve method. However, they can be constructed on cut slopes or compacted sloping embankments beside the roadway. Thus, the theory based on the conventional discrete spring models cannot be directly applied to the sloping ground since the ground inclination significantly affects the ultimate soil resistance. In this study, two approaches for comparison of them are adopted to present the interaction behavior between soil and the post. One of them is the three-dimensional Lagrangian approach, and the other is the hybrid approach that combines the finite elements and the particles based on SPH (smoothed particle hydrodynamics) modeling. The SPH method is expected to overcome drawbacks of large mesh distortion in soil regions consisting of node-connected finite elements due to lateral movement of the guardrail post. The soil-post interaction in the sloping ground under conditions of quasi-static and dynamic loads is investigated according to ground inclination, embedment length, and embedment location of the post near the slope.

Abstract:

Uplift capacity is the main design control parameter of tower foundations. There are many factors to be considered in the design of tower foundations, such as the choice of models and the combination of different factors. The research on the uplift capacity of tower foundation is mainly focused on the foundations built on flat ground, while there is no mature method for the tower foundations placed in sloping ground. Base on the theory of earth pressure and the Mohr Coulomb law, This paper tries to establish the equations to calculate the uplift capacity of tower foundation placed in sloping ground and get the equation to obtain the effective value of the uplift depth for the tower foundation. At the end of the paper, a calculation example is presented using the simplified equation.

Abstract:

Above-ground biomass cover under Coffea arabica on sloping land is beneficial but difficult to sustain. Interplanting annual and perennial legumes can sustain the above-ground biomass cover, and improve soil fertility, yield, and profitability. This was tested on 26 sloping farms in a four-growing season experiment on undersowing C. arabica with new crop combinations: Mucuna pruriens var. utilis (T1); Millettia dura Dunn (T2); a combination of M. pruriens and M. dura (T3); and the control with a no-cover legume (T4). On each farm, all treatments followed a randomized single-block design. T3 produced 8.7 mt/ha/yr above-ground biomass that was significantly (p < 0.01) higher than other treatments and was increasing with the seasons. Under T3, plant-available nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) increased more than in other treatments. During the fourth season, coffee yield in T3 was 54%, 22%, and 11% higher than in T4, T2, and T1, respectively. The gross profit under T3 was 86% higher than in T4 in the fourth season. This indicates that interplanting a combination of M. pruriens and M. dura under C. arabica on sloping land can sustainably increase above-ground biomass cover, soil’s plant-available N and K, coffee yield, and profitability. Based on the results, the combination of M. pruriens and M. dura is recommended to optimize coffee production under the described conditions.

Abstract:

A roadside guardrail may be constructed near slopes. The desired safety behavior is ensured not only by the guardrail structure itself, but also by the interaction between soil and guardrail post. In the case of horizontal ground, the elastic Winkler spring model and the p- y curve approach can be used to estimate the soil-post interaction by the finite element method. However, it is difficult to apply those models with the sloping ground cases unless sufficient experimental data are given through the single post impact tests. This paper evaluates, using LS-DYNA software, the vehicle impact performance of flexible barriers made of steel W-Beam guardrails in sloping ground that are also supported over three different types of post configurations. The dynamic performance is tested in terms of maximum deflection, absorbing impact energy, and occupant risk index according to post types.

Abstract:

The mechanics of a trailer system moving up and down sloping ground under different operating conditions was theoretically simulated. A computer program was developed to analyze the system to predict the effect of both the trailer loading weight and the slope angle on the off-road vehicle stability, traction ability, and drawbar loading. The results of this analysis showed that the off-road vehicle becomes unstable when towing a 3750 kg trailer uphill at 28° slope angle. Insufficient traction occurred at slope angles ranging from 15° to 18° corresponding to trailer weight of 3750 to 750 kg. The parallel component of drawbar pull reached a maximum value of (17318) N when the trailer was pushing the off-road vehicle downhill at 30° slope angle. The normal component (normal to the tractive surface) showed similar maximum values for both uphill and downhill motions of the system. The use of computer analysis in this study provided a significant improvement in predicting the effect of different parameters on stability and control of off-road vehicle-trailer combination on sloping ground.Keywords: Stability, Traction, Sloping ground, Drawbar.

Abstract:

The increased demand for food causes intensive farming with high yield production and large water consumption to extend significantly. Depending on soil properties, seasonal rainfall, surface drainage and water resources, hence the consumption-infiltration balance, the ground water table might be raised or depleted; soils could be saturated or remain partly saturated with negative pore pressures. As a result sloping grounds may become prone to shallow slides, as mudflows, or deep seated movements, involving large volumes of soil, especially after rupture of major watering lines or after long uncontrolled irrigations. Within this framework the paper investigates the possible effects of replacing grassland with intensive apple farming on the stability conditions of slopes. Apples require frequent watering, especially during spring and summer to meet qualitative and quantitative productive standards. Also, sprinkler irrigation is often used to protect against hail. From the precipitation, irrigation, runoff, evaporation and plant transpiration balance, the evolution of the pore water pressure distribution within an average year is calculated. Then the modified shear strength of the unsaturated-saturated soils is determined and the factor of safety against sliding is calculated.

Abstract:

AbstractAn experimental study was proposed to understand the behaviour of single pile in sloping ground with various eccentricity. Cohesionless soil was used for conducting experiments with a horizontal ground and with a slope of 1V:2H. With calculated stiffness factor (T) as 92 mm, the eccentricity was varied as 0T, 0.5T and 1T. The lateral capacity of the pile in horizontal and sloping ground condition decreases with increase in eccentricity; the increase in lateral capacity was linear too. The bending moment increases with increase in load; but the depth of maximum bending moment was 0.15 m for 0T and 0.5T of eccentricity. For 1T of eccentricity, the depth of maximum bending moment varied to 0.07 m from the point of load. An equation was proposed to calculate the maximum bending moment of the pile for any eccentricity for a slope of 1V:2H, which is the governing factor for pile designing.

Abstract:

Piles are often constructed on natural slope such as sea bed slope in off-shore structures. When piles are constructed on sloping ground, the behaviour of piles under earthquake loading is different from the piles on horizontal ground surface. The dynamic response of a pile subjected to external excitation is a complex phenomenon resulting from the interactions between the pile and the surrounding soil. In the present study, a finite element analysis of a single field pile located on sloping ground was carried out. A single pile of length 30m with embedment length to diameter ratios (L/D) 20, 25 and 30 was located on a crest of soft clay of slopes 1V:1H and 1V:5H, and subjected to dynamic earthquake loading (California Earthquake,1990). From the study, the behaviour of acceleration with time, lateral displacement and bending moment behavior along the pile shaft was studied.

Karyati, Sarminah S, Karmini, Simangunsong G, Tamba J. 2018. The mixed cropping of Anthocephalus cadamba and Glycine max for rehabilitating sloping lands. Biodiversitas 19: 2088-2095. Agroforestry system is one of the many alternatives to overcome problems concerning sloping lands. The objectives of this current study were to analyze the effect of agroforestry system in the form of mixed cropping of jabon tree (Anthocephalus cadamba Mig) and soybean (Glycine max Merr) on growth and hydro-orological aspects on sloping lands with different steepness (a slightly steep and a steep slope gradient). The growth parameters (survival rate, ground coverage, diameter increment, and height increment) and hydro-orological parameters (surface runoff, potential erosion, erosion hazard index, and erosion hazard level) were observed in this study. The findings showed that on the slightly steep slope (>15-25%) land, the survival rate of A. cadamba was 90%, the ground coverage of the G. max was 70-79%, the diameter and the height increments of A. cadamba trees were 1.8 cm year-1 and 13.8 cm year-1 respectively. Meanwhile, the potential erosion rate and the erosion hazard index were 32.13 ton ha-1 year-1 and 1.29, respectively. In the steeper slope (>25-45%), the survival rate of A. cadamba reached 90%, the G. max ground cover reached 60-69%, the diameter and height increments of the A. cadamba reached 1.5 cm year-1 and 12.0 cm year-1 respectively. Furthermore, in the steep slope, the potential erosion rate was 52.51 ton ha-1 year-1 and the erosion hazard index was 2.10. In addition, the potential erosion rate and the erosion hazard index in the control plot were higher than those in slightly steep slope. Therefore, it could be implied that the application of A. cadamba and G. max mixed cropping system could rehabilitate sloping lands.
