The prediction of the ultimate bearing capacity of the pile under axial load is one of the important issues for many researches in the field of geotechnical engineering. In recent years, the use of computational intelligence techniques such as different methods of artificial neural network has been developed in terms of physical and numerical modeling aspects. In this study, a database of 100 p...

1.1. The History of Precast Building Precast building has always been a challenge in terms of the attempt to build buildings, above all, more quickly, whilst at the same time meeting all the conditions of good quality construction. This paper deals with the precast mode of construction using a timber frame, of the panel type, suitable for buildings with 3-4 storeys above ground. Therefore, in t...

An open ended pipe pile can become plugged when sufficient frictional resistance is developed by the inner soil cylinder within the pile (soil plug), thereby preventing further intrusion of the soil into the pile. When plugging occurs in an impact driven pipe pile, a complex interaction between the pile and soil plug takes place, causing the propagating stress wave to undergo an abrupt change. ...
