Abstract: With the introduction of the Russian laws on the definition of safety in use of buildings and structures, it became necessary to develop criteria (coefficients) for estimating these states. One of the known approaches to assessing the safety of buildings is based on the analysis of geometric characteristics. However, currently, there are no criteria that would ensure the solution of this problem. It is required to develop these characteristics. In this research, we offer an approach to the designation of such criteria. This proposal for assessing the technical condition of buildings, the coefficients of internal geometry and building stability, providing a single-value assessment of the state of the object in terms of safety of its use.

Earth pressure of retaining wall in seismic reinforcement after shall take between active and static earth pressure for the form of the distribution . In this paper, based on the limit equilibrium theory, and the whole stability for retaining walls is analysis, the theoretical formula of the stability safety factor between stability against slope and overturning safety factor is derived. By calculation and comparative analysis with an example, the stability safety factor of gravity retaining wall with introducing this strengthening technology is improved obviously.

Abstract: The slope failure of high fill embankment have a large proportion under self-weight and external conditions,Because of the complexity of the soil deformation and stress,General methods such as the limit equilibrium and numerical analysis have their own limitations,The paper takes high fill subgrade engineering in Fujian province as the background.Adopting analytical method and finite element method calculate the stability coefficient and lateral displacement of high fill embankment slope.moreover,Making a comprehensive judgement to the stability of the slope by comparing with the actual value.The results show that calculation results of these two methods are close.Which can make accurate predictions on high slope stability and determine a judgement.and provides an effective method for the design and construction of the similar project.

Abstract: In the modification of narrow deep soil channels of early urban excavation, because of great depth and steep slope, the gravity retaining wall slope will be needed. The problems of soft soil subgrade treatment at channel bottom have to be solved. Combined with the old channel treatment project of a city, as practical example, the method by which the soft subgrade of channel retaining walls strengthening with pine piles, is described. By application of Coulomb Theory, the stability calculation for gravity pitch-up oblique retaining walls is conducted. The results show that using pine piles is a good method for strengthening the soft soil subgrade with small thickness below the water level.

Abstract: This paper studies on the stability capacity of E-glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) tubes under axial compression in order to get the formula, which can be applied to structure design. Firstly, on the basis of test data, finite element analysis is carried out and initial geometric imperfection is considered in the models. Then, it's proved that edge-failure criterion is suitable for stability analysis of GFRP slender components by comparison of results derived from several classic formulas. Finally, a modified Perry-Robertson stability formula is proposed so as to ascertain corresponding stability coefficients for GFRP tubes with different slenderness ratio.

Abstract: Based on the unified solution of shear strength in terms of double stress state variables for unsaturated soils, the unified formula of stability coefficient for unsaturated soil slopes under the plane strain condition is derived by Sweden slice method, which considers the effect of the intermediate principal stress rationally. Combining with engineering example, the proposed formula is compared with the one that is on the basis of Fredlund unsaturated soil theory and the influencing characteristics of factors including intermediate principal stress, matric suction, effective internal friction angle and matric suction angle is obtained. The research result indicates that: intermediate principal stress and matric suction have obvious impacts on the stability coefficient for unsaturated soil slopes; the stability coefficient has been increasing with the increase of unified strength theory parameter and matric suction, which proves that the consideration of intermediate principal stress and matric suction can make slopes give full play to their self-stabilities and strength potential, and the yield criterion has great impact on the judgment of slope stability; the stability coefficient also increases nonlinearly with the increase of effective internal friction angle and matric suction angle. The proposed unified formula of stability coefficient for unsaturated soil slopes enjoys a wider application. The stability coefficient for unsaturated soil slopes according to the Fredlund unsaturated soil theory and that for saturated soil slopes are just the special cases. The research result can provide theoretical basis for stability analysis and reinforce design of the unsaturated soil slopes, and it is of great significance to the slope management.

Abstract: Steel tube filled with steel-reinforced concrete (STSRC) is a new kind of heavy load column, which made by inserting steel skeletons into the steel tube, then injecting the concrete to the tube. In order to study the combined column’s stability subject to axial compression, we use energy method and numerical methods analysis derives the formula of stability coefficient in which slenderness ratio as the main parameters. Using the 1/1000 column length as the initial deflection of the STSRC columns by FORTUNE calculation program, stability coefficient is produced through comparison and analysis between calculated results from quantile regression and that from ordinary least square regression respectively. According to the computer results and energy method, the formula for calculating the axial stability bearing capacity of STSRC was established. A good agreement between the calculation results and testing results illustrates, which is feasible to using the calculating formula to calculate the bearing capacity of STSRC

Abstract: The hinge-type turning fashion has been widely adopted in wheel loader. During the process of design, two kinds of parameters, stability and stability coefficient, have been thought out to evaluate a loader’s transverse stability. Majority of cultural documentary adopts the evaluation method of stability currently.In this paper, the opinion that the stability coefficient can be used to evaluate transverse stability is more reasonable and viable, which is proved and analyzed through experiments.It is certificated by theory and practice: Using the stability coefficient to evaluate a loader’s transverse stability is more scientific and exact. It has some significance to direct the design, manufacture and use of the wheel loader.

Abstract: In recent years aluminum bridges have been constructed in China, but lack of aluminum design and construction standards limits its development. Traditional design theory of concrete and steel can’t be completely adopted for its application in bearing structures. In order to solve technical difficulty, material type, deflection under live load, frequency and bucking of aluminum bridges are analyzed based on aluminum half-opened truss bridges constructed in China. Compared with related design standards at home and abroad, recommendations are put forward to provide theoretical basis for further application and research of aluminum truss bridges.
