Design-truck ultimate limit states of buried modular polymer stormwater collection structures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Modular polymer stormwater structures are a relatively new class of buried structure with two horizontal platens supported by vertical columns. While structural demand at design truck loads has been quantified, the ultimate limit state to design truck loading is unknown. Full-scale physical experiments were conducted to quantify the applied load and identify the mode(s) of failure at the ultimate limit state of three types of modular structures when buried (with 0.6 m soil cover) and subject to static design truck loading. All three module types tested reached an ultimate limit state at applied loads around three times the nominal design load but had different modes of failure. The ultimate resistance for the module with columns having the lowest moment of inertia relative to length squared was caused by column buckling and top platen rupture, while the two modules with nearly twice the moment of inertia relative to length squared failed by top platen rupture and their column forces at most were 70%–75% of their short-term single column buckling resistance. The results provide new data to allow independent load rating of the buried structure, support continued assessment of column buckling, and identify the need to limit platen bending deflections.

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.
