In recent years, determining bearing capacity of piles from in-situ testing data as a complement to static and dynamic analysis has been used by geotechnical engineers. In this paper, different approaches for estimating bearing capacity of piles from SPT data are studied and compared. A new method based on N value from SPT is presented. Data averaging, failure zone and plunging failure of pil...

The structures of every kind rest on the soil under laying them. The stability of these structures depends upon the load carrying capacity of the soil. The bearing capacity of soil also depends upon the quantum of coarser particles presents in it. The plate load test is used for the design of footing. Therefore, in the present investigation, the plate load tests were conducted to study the sand...

Abstract Currently, corrugated cold-formed steel sheets are widely used as parts of cladding panels and roof envelopes in public residential buildings. However, the design is weakly covered by current building codes. This paper investigates load-bearing capacity with sinusoidal profile, presenting results experimental research that was performed GRISPE project at Research Center for Steel, Timb...

Delamination of the veneering composite is frequently encountered with fibre-reinforced composite (FRC) fixed dental prosthesis (FDPs). The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of framework design on the load-bearing capacity of laboratory-made three-unit inlay-retained FRC-FDPs. Inlay-retained FRC-FDPs replacing a lower first molar were constructed. Seven framework designs were evalu...

Block-box structures today are widely used in construction. Their main features mobility, lightness and the possibility of assembling block-boxes for any technological purpose. Block-boxes arrangement oil gas fields, settlements cities where it is necessary to carry out construction a short period time or there no industrial infrastructure. When designing, often take into account special loads ...
