Abstract In the present study, a small piled raft foundation has been simulated numerically through PLAXIS 3-D software. The objective of this study was to investigate effect governing parameters such as pile length, spacing, diameter, and number piles on settlement load-bearing behavior raft, so achieve optimum design for configurations. An optimized is defined with allowable center differenti...

This paper introduces an experimental research on the behavior of piled raft foundation (PRF) in sand two states (loose and medium sand). A small model has been tested a soil container vertical load was applied to through pneumatic jack. The settlement measured using displacement transducer; three sensors were attached pile heads measure axial borne group by each Arduino data logger. laboratory...

Abstract The micropiled raft offers a foundation system that combines the advantages of conventional piled and efficient installation micropiles. In this paper, comprehensive numerical analysis was conducted on behavior rafts under combined vertical lateral loading using finite element modeling. A model calibrated against full-scale axial field tests is used to conduct analysis. soil profile so...

Large-scale model tests were established at a scale of 1/5 using 7 m deep tank with cross-sectional dimension 5 × 4 m, to study the vibration response characteristics ballastless track, embankment, and X-section piled raft foundation under cyclic axial load, including displacement, velocity, dynamic soil, pile stress. Cyclic loading can be achieved by controlling frequency cycles through servo ...
