Strain analysis of loading tests on multi-layered soft rocks
Abstract
As one of investigation for a foundation of Akashi Bridge, the writers attempted to measure the deformation characteristics of the Kobe Group, the tertiary sedimentary rock. Since the actual site for the foundation is deep in the sea, the site of a similar geological condition at a hill site was selected for a series of large scale loading test.
