Lateral Bearing Capacity of Piles in Cohesive Soils Based on Soils' Failure Strength Control

This paper presents the results of a series of numerical analysis carried out on piles in cohesive soils. Broms (1964a) proposed graphs to obtain ultimate lateral bearing capacity of such piles. However, the graphs do not cover all piles with different lengths. In this study, a finite difference program that is especially designed for piles is used. The investigations were carried out by varyin...

Seismic Bearing Capacity of Strip Footings on Pile-Stabilized Slopes

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...

The Effectiveness of Deep Soil Mixing on Enhanced Bearing Capacity and Reduction of Settlement on Loose Sandy Soils

A large portion of Iran railway routes are located in sandy desert areas. Therefore, paying attention to soil stabilization methods seems essential. In present study, in parallel to introducing the deep soil mixing as an efficient and economic method of soil improvement, in the frame work of a practical example, assuming loose sandy soil parameters, feasibility of the method application is inve...
