At-Rest Earth Pressure of Overconsolidated Cohesionless Soil
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Earth pressure theories occupy a paramount position in the field of geotechnical engineering. An experimental investigation of the at-rest earth pressure of overconsolidated cohesionless soil acting on retaining walls was conducted. A prototype model of a vertical rough wall, retaining horizontal backfill, was developed in the laboratory. The model was instrumented to measure the earth pressure at selected points on the wall, the total earth force acting on the wall, and the overconsolidation ratio (OCR) in the sand mass. Tests were conducted on walls retaining homogeneous overconsolidated dense, medium, or loose sands. Test results showed that the coefficient of at-rest earth pressure increases with the increase of the OCR. The present experimental results were used to examine the empirical formulas available in the literature. It can be reported that these formulas compared well with the experimental results for OCR values up to 3. An empirical formula is proposed to predict the coefficient of at-rest earth pressure for overconsolidated cohesionless soils. The results obtained by this formula agreed well with the present experimental results for all values of overconsolidation ratios.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
