and rebonding along a soil-structure interface. The application is to a long-span buried
culvert with incremental soil layering and it is solved by the finite-element method. It is
concluded that interface elements, which permit relative slippage between soil and structure,
are necessary in order that the predicted structure deformations conform with experimental
data.(Author)
