Traditional design concept of pile group is still adopted predominantly for the foundations of
several buildings in Japan, one of highly seismic areas in the world, even though they are …

Abstract In Japan and Turkey, predominantly traditional design concept of pile group is still
adopted even though most pile foundations are piled raft foundations in reality. This situation …

Both analytical and experimental studies are necessary when developing a seismic design
concept for piled raft foundations, especially in highly active seismic areas such as Japan …

In order to study the influence of pile spacing on the seismic response of piled raft in soft
clay, a series of shaking table tests were conducted by using a geotechnical centrifuge. The …

Regarding the inadequacy of quantitative measurements of geotechnical aspects for
assessing the behavior of the piled raft with different head connections during seismic …

Study on the seismic behavior of piled rafts and pile groups while the same amount of
construction material and excavation is used in their construction, are the main objective of …

A series of shaking table tests were conducted on piled raft foundations on sand by using a
geotechnical centrifuge. The results were compared with those obtained from the static …

The purpose of this study is to clarify the seismic performance of piled raft foundations based
on seismic observation records. Seismic observation on piled raft foundation on medium stiff …

In this research, the authors carried out vibration load tests on piled raft and pile group
models to investigate dynamic behaviours of the foundations. Foundation models consisting …

Piled raft foundations are recognised as one of the most economical foundation systems for
vertical load, so that the foundations are applies for lots of building for many countries. And it …
