Advantage of Bayesian approach to geotechnical designing
Journal Title: Annals of Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW. Land Reclamation - Year 2009, Vol 41, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper addresses the possibility of the Bayesian approach’s application to geotechnical engineering. First the principal information on the Bayesian analysis has been presented and its applications to estimate the soil parameters based on the CPT/DMT tests at SGGW Campus in Warsaw afterwards. The CPT/DMT tests had been carried out in order to recognize the geotechnical conditions in the foundations of design campus buildings. The data from two layers of glacial boulder clays have been analysed. The results demonstrate that the Bayesian approach is a useful tool in evaluation of ground properties and estimation of the geotechnical parameters in specified circumstances.
