Drilling and laboratory testing • Drilled 11 borings at WOO-65 and 6 at WOO-64 • Installed inclinometers in mid-slope borings • Installed several VW piezometers • Unconfined compression and CIU tests on soil • Limited uniaxial compression testing on rock
Typical profile WEAK ZONE EROSION – STEEP SLOPES UPPER GLACIAL TILL LOWER GLACIAL TILL BEDROCK
landslide mitigation options considered • Regrade slope to stable configuration • Mid-slope wall • Road-side wall • Road relocation • Many alternatives considered
landslide mitigation options considered • Regrading slope to stable configuration Problematic: would require fill (rock toe) in the river • Mid-slope wall Possible • Road-side wall Possible
Design and evaluation • Lower slope is unstable (FS<1.3) • These will need to be designed as retaining walls • Options considered: • Drilled Shaft Walls • Soldier Pile and Lagging • Other types
Drilled shaft walls HAM-126-22.07 BRO-52-16.20
Drilled shaft walls WAS-7-42 WAS-7-42
Drilled shaft walls HAM-126-22.07
Soldier pile and lagging wall SAN-20-10.40
Loading and design constraints • Active loading • EH & WA • LS – traffic • AASHTO LRFD Strength and Service load cases • Deflection Limits (road-side walls) • Typically 2 inches or 1% of shaft length (above bedrock) • Relaxed due to nature of loading – 3 inches 1 - AASHTO (2012). LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, 5th Ed. American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.
Mid-slope retaining wall • Consider limit equilibrium results – loading
Road-side retaining wall • Coulomb’s Theory for Active Earth Pressure • Compare both total stress and effective stress • Traffic Surcharge • Near EOP with wall alignment
Passive Resistance • Resistance modeled using Lpile • p-y multiplier for side-by-side piles • Ref. Reese or AASHTO For side-by-side piles: for 1 ≤ s/b ≤ 3.75 1 Reese, L. C., Van Impe, W. F. (2011). Single Piles and Pile Groups Under Lateral Loading, 2ndEd.
Loss of passive resistance • Loss of passive resistance • Estimation of rate of erosion at toe Approx. 15 feet over design life 3H:1V slopes are generally considered stable at this site
results of type study report • Roadway realignment least expensive • Large impact on adjacent properties • Wall Options • Mid-slope walls - slightly less expensive than road-side walls • Mid-slope walls - large impact on adjacent properties • Road-side walls – require lane closures; little ROW acquisition • Public Meetings
Preferred alternative • Road-side retaining wall is selected • Minimizes impact to river and environmentally sensitive areas • Limits acquisition of private property • Final Design • Final configuration uses: • W-sections in king piles • Minimally reinforced “plug piles” • Shaft spacing optimized in order to reduce cost
Final design • Summary of Proposed Wall Details
Final design • Estimate of Retaining Wall Cost • WOO-65: $1,600 per LF • WOO-64: $2,400 per LF
