Multiparameter Experimental Study on the Factor Contributions of Micropile Uplift Capacity Using Taguchi Approach

In the Himalayan region, micropile is one of effective foundation solution to resist uplift load structures on inaccessible and steep slopes. The performance highly influenced by multiple parameters, with limited studies attempting understand their individual contribution. With this in view, current research work elucidates multiparameter experimental study a test pit filled sand, hosting bored, grouted micropiles. factors considered comprise pile embedment ratio (L/D), diameter (D), relative density soil, grouting pressure, grout flow rate, material different levels. Taguchi method has been adopted plan experimentation. Statistical methods Analysis Mean (ANOM) Variance (ANOVA) have obtain optimum levels percentage contribution each factor. To achieve micropile, analysis was intended maximize ultimate minimize corresponding vertical displacement. results depict overall dominance L/D D resistance whereas other analyzed dominate displacement micropile. It concluded that for given can be controlled altering soil or resorting pressure grouting, while higher capacity achieved changing geometry
