Abstract
Experimental and finite element techniques are used to study the effect of such factors as interface slippage on the elastic soil-structure interaction of long-span, flexible, elliptic culverts and underpasses. The two-dimensional analyses of both a deeply buried pipe under distributed loading and a shallow conduit under concentrated loading indicate that the soil can be the basic load-supporting component of the system, as has been observed earlier for circular pipes. The experimental work is possibly the first application of the combined holographic-interferometric and photoelastic approach to a practical civil engineering problem.
