Preliminary pile tests are becoming increasingly routine in piling projects, some of which are
instrumented to help optimise working pile design. However, the execution of a successful …

The paper presents observations from a newly compiled database of static load tests
comprising 68 instrumented drilled shafts and auger cast-in-place piles in sands, sand …

This paper presents a field study on the axial behavior of new configuration of steel pipe
micropiles in tropical lateritic soil. The micropiles were installed following a two-step grouting …

A new methodology is introduced to determine the mobilized pile response under axial
tension forces in a soil profile with multilayers of sand and/or clay. The proposed model …

This paper presents a methodology to predict the pile-head load versus displacement curve,
and the associated mobilized stiffness of a pile embedded into sandy soils, on the basis of …

The Thesis explores the basis of relationships between the cone penetration test end
resistance and the axial capacity of bored and continuous flight auger (CFA) piles. This aim …

This general report is prepared from the selected 62 papers of 18 ICSMGE which are related
to the domain of studies for ISSMGE Technical Committee TC 212–Deep Foundations …

The design of pile foundation in technical practice is based on saturated soil mechanic or
empirical procedure that ignores the influence of matric suction. Understanding the pile …

A methodology is developed to assess the load transfer (t–z) curves of piles in sandy soils
under uplift/tension force based on soil–pile interaction. Compared to current practice, the …

This paper presents a new database of static load tests comprising 38 instrumented bored
and continuous flight augered piles in sedimentary and residual silts and clays from 20 sites …
