The control centers of wind power plants are usually located in coastal tidal flat areas. A thick fill should be placed at the original ground level to ensure that design elevation is maintained above water table. However, filling would cause a long-term settlement and further lead development negative skin friction (NSF) pile foundations for centers. CPTU tests were conducted calibrate soil pr...

The dynamic responses of pile–liquefied composite soils are complex, and the bearing capacities single piles or pile groups in liquefiable remain unclear. For friction piles, resistance determines vertical capacity pile. In a pile–soil system, it is very important to study changes during vibration. Based on shaking table test, this investigated foundation–liquefied soil system under simulated h...

The bearing capacity of screw cast in situ displacement piles is mostly unexplored. There also insufficient research on silty soils. Therefore, five cone penetration tests (CPT) and one piezocone test (CPTu) using direct methods were utilised to determine the load-bearing four Estonia. In addition CPT sounding data, static-dynamic (SDT) results used analyse load-beating piles. Both deterministi...

Reducing the computational workload by simplifying analysis of karst foundations into a plane strain problem can yield significant advantages. Yet, such an approach fails in reproducing engineering situation rigorous manner. In this regard, paper proposes upper-bound method that effectively analyze bearing capacity three-dimensional foundations. This is utilized to investigate impact various pi...

Abstract In Simply supported bridge, superstructure and substructure are separated by the expansion joint bearing. Integral bridge (IB), deck is casted monolithically with abutment wall. bridges have increased redundancy, which improves its seismic performance. Bridge fails may fail due to failure of bearing, non‐availability seating width does not occur in IB. The single pile analysis performe...
