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 …

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 …

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 …

The 3D finite element simulations are carried out to study the impact of different pile head
connection conditions, ie, rigid and hinged connection on the response of piled rafts in sand …

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 …

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 …

A number of researchers has extensively investigated the vertical load bearing mechanism
of piled raft foundation, by applying elasticity theory and finite element method. The study on …

In this study, effect of pile head connection condition on the behavior of Combined Pile-Raft
Foundation (CPRF) by using finite element based geotechnical program PLAXIS3D is …

The Combined pile raft foundation (CPRF) is considered to be an efficient type for tall
buildings since it accounts for raft contribution to both vertical and lateral loads. Traditionally …

This paper offers a case history of a low-rise building, located in Ibaraki Prefecture,
supported by a piled raft in medium to dense sand underlain by over consolidated silty soil …
