Research on Anti-seepage Curtain Layout of a Deep Foundation Pit near the Levee by WANG Xuehong, LIU Xiaoqing, ZHANG Hui, WANG Xin, YAO Lu

“…A deep foundation pit project is located in the east of the levee at Yangzhou section of the Grand Canal.There are silt soil and silt sand layers in the bottom of the foundation pit within excavation depth,which is prone to seepage accidents,threatening the safety of the levee.Based on MIDAS GTS,this paper establishes a three-dimensional finite element simulation model according to the geological survey data,discusses the seepage situation of each excavation stage before and after adding curtain and with different lateral curtain width in detail,and analyzes the relationship between lateral curtain width and levee and foundation pit.The results show that:The seepage gradient of the two corners of the foundation pit near the levee is the largest without curtain,and the seepage damage is easy to occur near the two corners;The seepage gradient at the bottom of the intermediate curtain will slightly increase with the increase of the lateral curtain width;From the technical and economic point of view,the seepage prevention effect is obvious when the lateral curtain width is 17 m;The seepage gradient at the bottom of the intermediate curtain and at the end of the lateral curtain is large which should be paid close attention to.The research results provide an empirical reference for similar projects.…”

Microbiological Study of Cast Posts before Cementation by Maricela Vallejo-Labrada, Juan Carlos Ojeda-Garces

“…This study identifies the most common microorganisms present in type III gold cast posts related to pulpal disease and evaluates the sterilization/disinfection method before cementation in the root canal. Forty-five type III gold cast posts were aseptically collected in sterile sealed plastic bags and taken to the microbiology laboratory to carry out the study: fifteen cast posts had no treatment, fifteen were disinfected (immersion in 70% alcohol during 15 minutes), and fifteen were autoclaved at 121°C for 15 minutes by using saturated steam under 15 psi pressure. …”
