Experimental Research on the Liquefaction Potential of Tailings Silt in Zhuziqing Tailings Dam

Article Preview

Abstract:

The particle composition, physical and mechanical properties of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam were tested by means of field survey and lab test. And the liquefaction potential of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam were investigated based on field-performance data using standard penetration test (SPT) and wave velocity test (WVT) methods. Results show that the liquefaction potential of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam can be evaluated by means of SPT and WVT. Results also show that there is almost non liquefaction at the places in Zhuziqing tailings dam where are under the seventh sub-dam, and there is serious liquefaction in the new sub-dam and deposited beach, which locate at the places above the eleventh sub-dam.
