1 Dynamic Earth Pressure - Simplifed Methods Page 1 Dynamic Earth Pressures - Simplified Methods Reading Assignment Lecture Notes Other Materials Ostadan and White paper Wu and Finn paper Homework Assignment Use an 1D EQL ground response model and acceleration time history developed in homework assignment #3 (Matahina Dam - scaled to the fundamental period of the surrounding soil) to do the following: a. Calculate the dynamic thrust against a buried rigid wall using the Ostadan-White method for the new Orson-Spencer Hall structure that is 10 m below the ground surface, assuming site class C. Use Vs values consistent with the mid-range of the site class (20 points). b. Calculate the dynamic pressure distribution to be applied against the buried structure using the Ostadan-White method for the same structure. Show this distribution versus depth on a depth plot. (10 points) Use the M-O method to estimate the factor of safety against sliding and overturning for a gravity wall using the acceleration time history from the previous homework assignment 3. (20 points) The wall is a yielding wall retaining wall and is 4 m high and is 1 m thick at the base and tapers to 0.6 m at the top. The retained backfill behind the is flat (i.e., horizontal) and has a unit weight of 22 kn/m^3 with a drained friction angle of 35 degrees and the backfill is unsaturated. Also, the base of the wall rests on backfill material and is embedded 0.6 m in this material at its base. Assume that the horizontal acceleration used in the design is 50 percent of the peak ground acceleration. You may also neglect the vertical component of acceleration.

Input ground motion at basemat elevation. The walls of the building are effectively rigid. 30 foot-embedment considered 5 percent material damping of soil Poisson s ratio of soil = 1/3 Kinematic SSI is considered. Inertial SSI is not considered. The solution is derived from SSI analyses using SASSI. L

33 Dynamic Earth Pressure - Simplifed Methods Page 33 Non-Yielding Walls - Ostadan and White (cont.) Recall that M-O method is only valid for yielding wall; hence it forms a lower bound The use of the low frequency (i.e., long period) amplitude is based on the findings of the Lotung experiment site (see previous).

36 Dynamic Earth Pressure - Simplifed Methods Page 36 Ostadan and White (Steps) Perform seismic ground response analysis (using SHAKE) and obtain the acceleration response spectrum at the base mat level in the free-field at 30% damping. Obtain the total mass using: m = 0.50 ρ H 2 Ψ ν 3. Obtain the total seismic lateral force by multiplying the mass from Step 2 by the spectral amplitude of the free-field response (Step 1) at the soil column frequency. F = m S a where Sa is the spectral acceleration at the base mat level for the free field at the fundamental frequency of the soil column with 30 percent damping Calculate the max. lateral earth pressure (ground surface) by dividing the results for step 3 by the area under the normal soil pressure curve (normalized area = H) Calculate the lateral pressure distribution verses depth by multiply the max. lateral earth pressure by the p(y) function below. p(y) = y y y y y 5 where y is the normalized height (Y/H) measured from the base of the wall.
37 Dynamic Earth Pressure - Simplifed Methods Page 37 Ostadan and White (Summary) The method was verified by comparing the results of the simple computational steps with the direct solution from SASSI. The verification included 4 different wall heights, 6 different input time histories and 4 different soil properties. The method is very simple and only involves free-field (e.g. SHAKE) analysis and a number of hand computational steps. The method has been adopted by building code (NEHRP 2000) and will be included in the next version of ASCE The Ostadan-White method is by no means a complete solution to the seismic soil pressure problem. It is merely a step forward at this time. Solution! Perfect isolation!
