This paper develops an analytical method to calculate seismic bearing capacity of a strip footing, which is located on a slope reinforced with rows of pile. The resistance of passive pile is determined based on normal and shear stress of the soil around the pile, which is then compared to other analytical methods. This comparison indicates an acceptable agreement. The variants of the study incl...

This study aimed to investigate whether the seismic fragility and performance of interaction soil-pile-structure (ISPS) were affected by different parameters: axial load, a section pile, longitudinal steel ratio pile implanted in type sand (loose, medium, dense). In order better understand ISPS phenomena, series nonlinear static analysis have been conducted for two cases, namely: (i) fixed syst...

A pile foundation is commonly adopted for transferring superstructure loads into the ground in weaker soil. They diminish settlement of infrastructure and augment soil-bearing capacity. This paper emphases pile-driving effect on an existing adjacent cylindrical semi-tapered pile. Driving a three-dimensional fruitfully accomplished by combining arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) adaptive mesh e...

Application of pile-raft foundations, which are known as “compound foundations”, is a suitable alternative in the case of heavy load structures. The interaction behavior of pile raft foundations makes these systems very complex to analyze. Different methods have been proposed to determine the bearing capacity of piled raft systems and distribution of loads between the components, i.e. pile grou...

It is very difficult to predict the load carrying capacity of bored piles because of the Complications that may arise such as difficult ground conditions , presence of ground water, method of boring, method of concreting, quality of concrete, expertise of the construction staff, the ground conditions and the pile geometry. Therefore the Pile design must be accompanied by in situ load testing. M...

The bearing capacity of a single pile in granular soil was analyzed piles under vertical loads in the study of the mechanism of shaft fiiction. The effect of the deformation modulus on the bearing capacity of the single pile in granular materials, and especially in sand, was examined. By using the FLAC program for the finite element analysis it was possible to predict quite accurately the load ...

To reduce the differential settlement of pile group foundations, a squeezed-branch optimization method based on an improved particle swarm algorithm is proposed in this paper. This translates problems design into pile-bearing-plate distribution using theory variable-stiffness leveling. In process, divided groups according to top axial force pile. The finite element analysis software used solve ...
