This paper proposes an alternative mechanism of pile failure in liquefiable deposits during
earthquakes. This failure mechanism, based on pile buckling, is formulated by back …

Pile foundations are the most common form of deep foundations that are used both onshore
and offshore to transfer large superstructural loads into competent soil strata. This book …

Piled structures continue to fail during earthquakes despite being designed with the required
safety factor against bending due to lateral loads. This paper suggests that the reason for …

The collapse of pile-supported structures, especially in liquefiable soils, is still a major
concern to the geotechnical earthquake engineers. In the last few decades, extensive …

Collapse of structures resting on piled foundations is still observed after strong earthquakes
despite the fact that a large factor of safety is employed in their design. It has been identified …

Collapse of piled foundations in liquefiable soils is still observed after strong earthquakes
despite the fact that a large factor of safety is employed in their design. The current method …

The paper reviews the failure mechanism of pile-supported structures in liquefiable soil
during earthquakes. Postearthquake investigation of many pile-supported structures on …

This report investigates the importance of bending-buckling interaction in seismic design of
piles in liquefiable soils. Recent studies have identified a possible mechanism of failure of …
