This paper presents a real case study of a micropiling process that was developed to stop
the continuous tilting of a 9-story residential building in Dakahlia, Egypt. Shortly after the …

One of the major disadvantages of micropiles is their low lateral stiffness and flexural rigidity
due to the small diameter. This limitation can be handled in current practice, by installing the …

This paper used finite element modeling to evaluate the consolidation effect on the
performance of existing rafts underpinned with micropiles under combined vertical and …

The scarcity of construction land has pushed the practice of using agricultural land and
floodplains as construction zones, which require chemical and mechanical reinforcements …

Micropiles, on account of their versatility, can serve as both a new foundation and a long-
term option for prevailing foundations without disturbing the subgrade underneath. They can …

This paper presents full-scale field tests of grouted steel pipe micropile embedded in marine
soft clay under compressive and tensile loads. The load-displacement responses, axial …

With the increasing development of underground spaces in cities, a critical indicator for the
design of excavation in urban areas is controlling the damage potential of adjacent …

The micropiled raft offers a foundation system that combines the advantages of the
conventional piled raft and the efficient installation of micropiles. In this paper, a …

Over the past two decades, a number of researchers studied different aspects of the
unconnected piled raft foundation (UPRF) system. In this system, a structural fill cushion is …

This study focuses on the settlement of soft soil improved by floating soil cement columns in
a small-scale physical test. The effect of area improvement ratio (ap) and column height (Hc) …
