摘要

A Foundation Deformation Prediction Symposium was held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology,November 13-15, 1974. The purpose of the Symposium was to examine current design methodology for embankment loads placed on a soft soil foundation by comparing predicted and measured performance of a full scale field test. Predictions of pore pressures,deformations and stability of the soft foundation under additional embankment load were made by ten teams of geotechnical engineers. These predictions were made before the conduct of the actual field test and are described. This report documents the predictions made by each predictor.
