Numerous techniques have been presented by different researchers to analyze piled raft. In order to analyze pile foundation, soil can be modeled as spring, continuous medium, or porous media. Pile can also be modeled as spring or continuous medium. This study includes three main stages: a short description of different types of analysis methods of pile foundation, writing a computer program bas...

The introduction of Eurocode in Kazakhstan allows for the application modern technological innovations and elimination technical barriers realization international projects. It is significant to study standards design requirements provided Eurocode. This presents a comparative analysis Kazakhstani European approaches geotechnical foundations provides methods considered codes practice. Three dif...

In the case of problematic soils and tall buildings where the design requirements cannot be satisfied merely by a raft foundation, it is of common practice to improve the raft performance by adding a number of piles so that the ultimate load capacity and settlement behavior can be enhanced. In this study, the effect of spatial variability of soil parameters on the bearing capacity of piled raft...

The present paper aims to investigate the effects of defective piles in horizontally loaded piled raft foundations. Close real scale foundation models and intact three-piled systems were submitted horizontal load tests. used bored type drilled with 5 m length 0.25 diameter, connected a concrete founded on tropical soil profile at University Campinas research site. Based experimental data, three...

Abstract Laboratory tests were carried out on non-piled rafts, single piles, surface contacting and non surface-contacting piled rafts which made of aluminum instrumented with strain gauges deflection gauges. The foundations installed in dry sand contained a large metal tank to minimize boundary effects. Maintained loads applied each foundation until failure was closely approached. In parallel,...
