Impact of the Eemdijk full-scale test programme

Breedeveld, J., Zwanenburg, C., Van, M., & Lengkeek, A. - 01/09/2019 - All-Risk
This paper describes the rationale behind the test setup and operation of the test programme in relation to the current design codes and guidelines. First the set of knowledge questions to be resolved is considered. These questions gave direction to the type of failure tests, the required instrumentation and the impact of conclusions.

Eemdijk full-scale field test programme: ground dike and sheet pile dike failure test

Lengkeek, A., Post, M., Breedeveld, J., & Naves, T. - 01/09/2019 - All-Risk
Two similar test dikes were constructed at full scale (5m high, 25m wide, 60m long) to gain better understanding of the failure mechanism and deformations for both dikes, one of which served as a reference for the dike that had an 18m long sheet pile wall was installed.
