Executive Summary | Extensive research was carried out to clarify the bearing capacity of rubble mounds. This consisted of shear tests for rubbles by large triaxial apparatus, laboratory bearing capacity experiments by both a large scale model test and a centrifuge model test, field bearing capacity tests and investigation of the behaviour of actual gravity structures. The main conclusions can be summarized as follows: |
