Evaluation of overburden stress effects on liquefaction resistance at Duncan Dam
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The cyclic resistance of sand unit 3c at Duncan Dam in British Columbia for overburden stresses of about 2 to 12 atm (1 atm = 101.325 kPa) was evaluated previously using cyclic undrained direct simple shear (DSS) and cyclic undrained triaxial testing of samples obtained using frozen sampling techniques. The in situ standard penetration test (SPT) and laboratory testing results provide a unique set of data for evaluating how the effects of effective overburden stress are accounted for in liquefaction evaluation procedures. The present study re-examines the cyclic resistance of these sands based on the field and laboratory test data for the unit 3c sands underlying Duncan Dam relative to the site-specific procedures developed by Pillai and Byrne and the liquefaction triggering evaluation procedures presented by Idriss and Boulanger, Youd et al., and Cetin et al. The differences in the results and the reasons for the differences are discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
