Proceedings of Sessions of Geo-Congress '98, October 18-21, 1998, Boston, MA. These papers discuss the various testing programs undertaken to answer technical questions related to design and construction of the Central Artery/Tunnel Project in Boston. Technical issues include: dewatering and injection testing load testing of deep rock-socketed drilled shafts evaluating various test methods for determining shear strength of marine clay assessing effectiveness of different methods of grouting to pre-stabilize ground beneath railroad tracks prior to tunnel jacking and more. Although the tests were specific to the CA/T project, their results have much wider implications for geotechnical design in many other situations.Product Identifiers
