Les précipitations minérales à grande échelle et leurs effets sur les infrastructures
(ISTE Editions Ltd, 2023)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyCe chapitre illustre l’importance des dommages que peut causer la cristallisation des sels en milieu poreux à travers la considération de deux situations de génie civil concernant un tunnel et un viaduc. Il montre comment ... -
Levantamiento de un edificio cimentado sobre roca anhidrítica del Keuper
(Sociedad Española de Mecánica del Suelo e Ingeniería Geotécnica, 2016)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyLa aparición y aumento de agrietamientos en un edificio situado en el solar de una antigua cantera excavada en el Keuper motivó un reconocimiento detallado del terreno de cimentación. Las plantas sótano, semisótano y baja ... -
Massive sulfate attack to cement-treated railway embankments
(2013-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyTwo access embankments to a railway bridge, having a maximum height of 18 m, experienced a continuous and severe heave shortly after construction. Vertical displacements reached 120 mm in a 2-year period. The embankments ... -
Mecanismos de expansión en rocas sulfatadas
(2015)
Article
Restricted access - author's decisionLos mecanismos que conducen al hinchamiento en túneles en rocas sulfatadas se han descrito en la literatura; sin embargo, se propone una interpretación alternativa. La precipitación de cristales de yeso en discontinuidades ... -
Modelación numérica de túneles excavados en rocas sulfatadas
(2017-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyLas expansiones ocurridas en el túnel de Lilla son el resultado del crecimiento de cristales de yeso en discontinuidades. Se describe un procedimiento de análisis numérico para el diseño de un túnel en roca anhidrítica ... -
Modelling crystal growth
(2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe sustained heave of Pont de Candí Bridge is a consequence of the development of swelling strains in the sulphated claystone located below the tips of the foundation piles of the central pillan; of the bridge. The ... -
Modelling swelling behavior of anhydritic clayey rocks
(International Centre for Computational Engineering, 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe swelling behavior observed in anhydritic rocks is explained by the precipitation of gypsum crystals in open discontinuities. Gypsum crystals growing in discontinuities contribute to open them and induce deformations ... -
Pile groups under deep expansion: a case history
(2015-08)
Article
Open AccessA viaduct in a high speed railway line experienced severe heave of its central pillars as a result of deep expansion of an anhydrite rock. Bridge pillars were founded on pile groups which experienced vertical heave ... -
Projecte constructiu de la variant de la carretera C-13 a Vilanova de la Barca
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2006-09-01)
Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
Restricted access - author's decisionDefinició, anàlisi i valoració de les obres a executar per a la realització de la Variant de Vilanova de la Barca, entre els punts quilomètrics 13+900 i 19+410 de la carretera C-13. -
Protección frente a roturas de materiales granulares gruesos
(2022)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyLos terraplenes y presas de escollera y las bases de balasto experimentan deformaciones de compresión bajo carga constante así como también deformaciones de colapso cuando la humedad relativa (HR) aumenta. La rotura de ... -
Reaction of a pile group against deep swelling
(2015)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyA singular case of development of deep soil expansions in the vicinity of pile groups supporting bridge pillars motivated the analysis. A semi-analytic procedure, which uses some available fundamental solutions for cavity ... -
Reducing water effects on the behaviour of coarse granular aggregates
(International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - author's decisionRockfill embankments, rockfill dams and ballast beds experience long term compression deformations under constant loading as well as collapse deformations when relative humidity (RH) increases. Particle breakage is at the ... -
Testing and monitoring of Earth structures
(Springer, 2022)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyMonitoring structural behavior of earth structures during construction and in service is a common practice done for safety reasons, consolidation control and maintenance needs. Several are the techniques available for ... -
Tunnelling in sulphate claystones
(IOS Press, 2007)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe paper reviews first the performance of some tunnels built in gypsiferous-anhydritic rocks, especially in Central Europe. Then, a description of the main gypsum-laden lithological rock units in Spain is made as an ...
