What is Xu 2007-The Earth Pressure Behind Full-Height Frame Integral Abutment Ssupporting Granular Fill about?

This research investigates the lateral earth pressure behind full-height frame integral abutments backfilled with granular materials, highlighting the reduced maintenance needs of integral bridges compared to conventional ones. The study finds that lateral earth pressure increases systematically with cyclic strain levels, influenced by the nonspherical shape of granular particles. The implications for the design of integral abutments are discussed, emphasizing the need for updated understanding of earth pre
