1. Proposal of a failure envelope for artificially cemented sand
Abstract Soils are particulate materials, which often stand out for their low shear strength. In most cases, this aspect justifies adapting the geotechnical project for this characteristic, which can be even more problematic in the case of soft sands, since it often occurs in superficial layers in various parts of the metropolitan region of Fortaleza. Theref

2. Study of the interaction of concrete walls with the foundation structure
Abstract This article presents a study of the factors that influence the mechanism of soil-structure interaction with a pilot building having concrete walls and their impact on their performance. To illustrate the studies carried out, a numerical modeling of a four-floor concrete wall pilot building was performed, subjected to vertical actions, supported by

3. Rheology of mine tailings deposits for dam break analyses
Abstract This article deals with the rheology of tailings deposits related to dam break analysis. The material used was a fine tailings from iron ore processing. Geotechnical and rheological characterization of these tailings were performed. The rheological characterization consisted of rotational and oscillatory tests. It was observed that the rheological p

4. Geological - geotechnical characterization of different lithotypes in an underground mine
Abstract A mineralogical, geological and geotechnical characterization of several rock types (phyllite, dolomite, breccia and marl) from an underground mine site aimed, among other things, to identify its mineral composition and to provide parameters to support the understanding of rock mass behavior. For this purpose, it was possible to perform laboratory a

5. Reliability and geotechnical safety applied to deep foundations in precast concrete piles - case study
Abstract The Brazilian standard pertinent to the design and execution of foundations, NBR 6122/2019, establishes that the safety inspection of foundations of a given project must be conducted based on compliance with specified safety factors. Safety factor verification is imperative to meet regulatory requirements; however, it is not enough to guarantee the

6. Obtaining geotechnical parameters from correlations between geophysics and CPT tests in tailings dams
Abstract This article introduces a hassle-free methodology for geotechnical parameters to be obtained from correlations between geophysics and CPT field tests in tailings dams undergoing the decommissioning process, which are reasonably representative of site conditions, from the very early project stages, with extensive coverage of all impoundment parts, wi

7. Characterization of Sobradinho landslide in fluvial valley using MASW and ERT methods
Abstract Landslides can substantially impact the fluvial systems, which is why the continuous mapping of their extent, evolution and stability assessment is crucial. However, in such environments, material identification (e.g. colluvium) and subsurface characterization by the methods used for geologic mapping and geotechnical investigation is often a challen

8. Stabilization of sandy soil with high content of asphalt emulsion
Abstract The purpose of this article is to evaluate the shear strength parameters of mixtures of sandy soil with high asphalt emulsion contents for their use in geotechnical structures, such as zoned earth dams, embankments, etc. The methodology adopted consisted of: collecting and characterizing samples of sandy soil to be laboratory tested; compacting the

9. DURABILITY OF HDPE GEOMEMBRANES: AN OVERVIEW
The polymer demand for geotechnical applications has been growing. The geomembrane is a geosynthetic, manufactured, polymeric product and is often specified in environmental projects. Geomembranes started to be used in the 1930s but became more widespread in the 1940s. In the 1970s, geomembranes began to be specified for landfills. Over the past forty years,

10. Analysis of the impacts of slope angle variation on slope stability and NPV via two different final pit definition techniques
Abstract The traditionally and widely used Lerchs-Grossmann algorithm presents well-known limitations that newer propositions attempt to overcome. The direct block schedule (DBS) methodology, which has gained relevance with computational advances, obtains the final pit as a natural result of production sequencing, different from Lerchs-Grossmann-based algori

11. Aplicação de solução semianalítica para modelagem de ensaios de sorção e difusão pura com lixiviado
RESUMO A implementação da Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos (Lei nº 12.305, de 2 de agosto de 2010) foi um marco para a disposição final e o tratamento de resíduos sólidos no país. A contaminação decorrente da negligência na disposição dos resíduos sólidos urbanos atinge sistemas naturais vitais para a existência humana. Torna-se, port

12. Assessment of the effects of vegetational cover on the long-term stabilityof a waste rock dump
Abstract Waste rock dump reclamation includes re-grading the banks to flatten the overall slope followed by re-vegetation. These measures are required to reduce surface erosion, provide physical stability, and meet future use goals. In some cases, the presence of trees can cause localized shear zones in a waste rock dump by the load of the tree mass and the
