When underground space requires excavation in areas below the water table, foundation system suffers from buoyancy, which leads to uplifting of superstructure. A deep can be used; however, cases where a hard layer is encountered, high driving forces and corresponding noises cause civil complaints urban areas. Micropiles an effective alternative option, due their performance despite short instal...

One of the most important factors in determining the depth of foundations in structures adjacent to the water flow is the scouring phenomenon; the scouring is a phenomenon caused by the interactions between water flow and erodible bed materials, which causes the removal of sediments where hydraulic structures are located, including bridge piers. Every year, a great number of bridges are damaged...

The article provides data on the impact of high-voltage current electric spark discharges culture gummosis located surface cotton seed, and presents gummose seed. In this case, seeds were taken as basis for physical model, consisting three component parts, respectively, having a chalazal part, lateral micropile. initial period seed treatment, moisture penetrates inside from outside. Studied thr...

This study aims to suggest a technique for soil properties improvement of AL- Kadhimin shrine Minaret and support the foundation, which has tilt roughly 80 cm from vertical axis. The is made up four minarets with two domes set in large courtyard. have skewed varying degrees due uncontrolled dewatering inside recent years. However, northeast minaret was most inclined its proximity well placed Wh...

Micropiles are small-diameter foundation elements that widely used in building refurbishment to reinforce existing foundations or provide new where access for construction is difficult. Thermally-activated (TA) micropiles could be useful as an efficient means of providing cost-effective ground-coupling when shallow geothermal energy systems considered rehabilitation. It well-established thermal...
