Compressive Capacity of Conventional and Under Reamed Piles in Soft Clay

Centrifuge modelling of sand compaction piles in soft clay under embankment load

Sand compaction piles are used in practice for ground improvement of soft subsoil in order to accelerate consolidation, reduce compressibility, and increase strength. The current design procedure of sand compaction piles is based on simple empirical calculations, which does not take full account of the sand pile behaviour. This research project investigates the behaviour of a base reinforced em...

Performance and prediction of soft clay behavior under vacuum conditions

This paper describes the behavior of soft soil foundation under vacuum-assisted preloading at the Second Bangkok International Airport, Thailand. An analytical solution considering the variation of soil permeability and compressibility is proposed. The associated settlement and excess pore pressure at the embankment centerline are predicted and compared with the available field measurement. The...

Pullout Capacity of Model Piles in Sand

A large scale experimental program using vertical and batter model piles in sand subjected to pull out loads has been carried out in a model tank of size 1m x 1m x 1m. Mild steel pipes of varying diameters, lengths, and shapes are used as model piles. A poorly graded river sand having specific gravity G= 2.67, Uniformity coefficient= 3.53, emax = 0.81, emin = 0.54 has been used as foundation me...
