in this paper effect of pile-soil consideration in obtaining seismic response offshore structure is assessed due to earthquake loading. inducedseismic force is one of the most important excitations for the dynamic response of an offshore structure. according to api, seismic forces should be accounted in platform design for seismically active regions in order to determine the allowable seismic r...

Cement grouted soils, which consist of particulate soil media and cementation agents, have been widely used for the improvement of the strength and stiffness of weak ground and for the prevention of the leakage of ground water. The strength, elastic modulus, and Poisson's ratio of grouted soils have been determined by classical destructive methods. However, the performance of grouted soils depe...

Tests on 12 grouted splices were performed to investigate their deformation properties under tensile loading. Test variables included diameter and type of spliced bars and the size of splicing sleeves. Finite element method based models of the splices were built, verified and used to investigate the effect of sleeve length on the deformation properties of the grouted splices. The sleeve length ...

A pressure-grouted helical pile (PGHP) is a stiffened installed by using the simultaneous drilling and grouting technique. The formation of soil-cement column surrounded influenced multiple installation parameters, including helix number, size, speed. series small-scale model tests was carried out in clay to investigate influence parameters on axial behavior PGHP load transfer mechanism. piles ...

The effectiveness of silica sol grout on mudstones is reported in this paper. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD), the study investigates how the silica sol grout modifies mudstone mineralogy. Micropore sizes and mechanical properties of the mudstone before and after grouting with four different materials were determined with a surface area/porosity analyser and by uniaxial compression. Tests show th...

Pressure-grouted helical pile (PGHP) is an innovative piling system that allows a significant increase in capacity with relatively low additional cost. The constructed by applying pressurized grout during the installation of conventional piles. injected into ground through two nozzles welded to hollow shaft. This paper presents comprehensive laboratory study investigate effect three different n...

the effects of cementation and the physical properties of grains on the shear behavior of grouted sands are investigated in this paper. the consolidated-undrained triaxial shear behavior of three grouted carbonate sands with different physical properties, including particle size distribution, particle shape and void ratio, was studied. two sands were obtained from the north shores of the persia...

The present contribution is directed towards the concept of a reliable SHM system for grouted joints of the offshore wind turbines. It focuses on static and dynamic tests of a laboratory structure with a grouted joint, on a proper finite element modelling of its behaviour and damage progress. The entire structure as well as the joint itself is subjected to static and dynamic tests. The material...

this paper addresses the problem of quantifying the mechanical contribution of rockbolts installed systematically around tunnels (regularly spaced around the tunnel) excavated in rock masses. assuming that the mechanical contribution of grouted rockbolts is that of increasing internal pressure within a broken rock mass, a new procedure for computation of ground response curves for a circular tu...
