Helical piles are used mainly to resist tension forces generated by uplift and overturning
moments of various structures, therefore they have been suggested as a potential alternative …

Expansive soils exist in many countries worldwide, and their characteristics make them
exceedingly difficult to engineer. Due to its significant swelling and shrinkage characteristics …

Geogrid reinforcement can significantly improve the uplift bearing capacity of anchor plates.
However, the failure mechanism of anchor plates in reinforced soil and the contribution of …

Model Uncertainties in Foundation Design is unique in the compilation of the largest and the
most diverse load test databases to date, covering many foundation types (shallow …

In recent years, the use of helical piles as a deep foundation option for structures has
increased dramatically because they offer definite advantages over other solutions. The …

Helical piles are alternative foundation for offshore wind turbine as a green foundation.
When a helical pile is screwed into soft clay, the soils exhibit strain-rate dependency as well …

Screw piles can be used as foundations for offshore energy applications, thanks to their
silent mode of installation and considerable uplift capacity, although a significant upscaling …

In this study, a deep foundation pit project of Nanlishi Road in the Xicheng District of Beijing
was taken as the engineering background. Based on the monitoring method of that project …

When the temporary backfilled subgrade is not sufficiently compacted, the result is low
stiffness of the track system. Excessive deformation of railway tracks under the action of …

This paper presents and discusses the measured responses of single and grouped helical
piles to strong ground motions during a large-scale shake table testing program. The effects …
