Abstract: Use piles in recent years, a significant increase in sand beaches that are often saturated grain soil structure, has been found. Earthquake tensions in areas such as soil structure, increase pore pressure and decrease soil resistance and ultimately create the liquefacti...
Abstract: Pre-casted lightweight concrete (LWC) provide an attractive alternative to conventional pile materials such as steel and concrete by improving the durability of deep foundations. In this paper, the drivability of cylindrical piles with lightweight concrete is investigat...
Abstract: The study on micro piles for seismic improvement and reduction of structure settlement has received much attention from structure theorists. This is due to the performance of these piles in the improvement of seismic performance of bed soil and soil density and reduction in s...
Abstract: Austrian Tunneling is mainly applicable to big-section tunnels. The tunnel is excavated step by step in this technique. Furthermore, foreboding, jet grouting and freezing are the techniques applied to construct falling tunnels; however, Austrian tunneling should not be used a...
Abstract: Mud drilling is a combination of organic and inorganic chemicals made in the form of liquid and used in the drilling industry to move the piles to the surface, to control the pressure, to make unbonded walls, and to lubricate, etc. [1]. Developing the advanced digging, ...
Abstract: Construction of railway embankments on loose beds without using any methods of soil improvement (e.g. stone columns in silt and clay beds, deep soil mixing method, jet grouting and also using micropiles individually or in groups form) leads to the reduction of embankmen...
Abstract: It was often noticed by engineers that a significant but unintentional improvement in the soil was obtained in loose cohesionless layers when driving or vibrating casings during the construction of pile foundations. Consequently, compaction using vibratory probes with v...
Abstract: Micro-piles are principally used as elements for foundation support to resist static and dynamic loading conditions, less frequently as in-situ reinforcements for slope and excavation stability and construction of onshore coastal structures in low consolidated sandy bed...
Abstract: Piled foundations with large diameters are usually used for platform foundations and other offshore structures. In these situations, piles are normally driven into the ground. This paper contributes to investigating the feasibility of bottom hammering instead of traditional t...
