... Abstract Predictive equations of normalized shear modulus (G/G max ) and material damping ratio (D) are presented for calcareous sand, siliceous carbonate sand and carbonate sand of the Bay of Campeche and Tabasco Coastline. This was achieved using a database of 84 resonant column tests and 252...

... of interfaces between the anchor and mooring system design teams. While considerable investigation of the anchor line performance in clay has been conducted, there has been limited investigation into the anchor line behavior in sand, and none in carbonate sand. The limited relevant information in the codes...

... was agreed in advance with potential offshore Contractors to ensure that the required surface tolerances could be readily achieved. Offshore work prior to the arrival of the DCP consisted of seabed excavation to remove the in-situ carbonate sand and reef limestone, and replacement with the engineered rock...

This contribution thereforedevelops a method to predict footing penetration in uncemented carbonate sand. The method directly correlates the cone penetrometer tip...

... maximum and minimum void ratios, high void ratios being indicative of highly angular particles. Airey et al. (1988) recommend that maximum and minimum void ratios should be part of a classification system for carbonate sands as this gives an indication of grain crushing, compressibility, and frictional...

... handles this task, a questionnaire was sent to international experts. The questionnaire took the API RP2A recom- mended practice as reference basis, and concentrated on the design for medium to very dense sands and for carbonate sands. This paper presents the statistical compilation of the expert opinions...

... ABSTRACT The results of several geotechnical studies performed for the Gulf of Suez Petroleum Company (GUPCO) in their Gulf of Suez July field are presented here. Soils at the site primarily consist of weak to moderate cemented carbonate sands and silts (carbonate content in excess of 90...
