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 …

Featured Application The paper is useful for those who are interested in the seismic
behavior of micropiles and micropiled structures; furthermore, it is presenting the concept of …

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 …

In this study, the uplift load-carrying behavior of inclined micropiles (MP) embedded in
various soil-rock layer conditions was investigated. For this purpose, a series of model load …

Responses of the piled-raft foundation are complex due to the combined working and the
existence of load-sharing mechanism between piles and raft. A clear understanding of this …

As a common geohazard, landslides may cause enormous losses of human lives and
properties. It is necessary to prevent landslides by effective technical measures. The grouted …

In this paper, the lateral load-carrying behavior of inclined micropiles installed in various soil–
rock layer conditions was investigated based on the results from the model load tests and …

Piled raft foundations (PRFs) below stepped high rise towers are often subjected to non-
uniform loads with eccentricities. In this study, twenty five cases of rectangular rafts with …

This study investigates the structural bearing capacity and deformation behaviors of
micropiles considering various influence factors including the length (L) of micropiles, outer …

Check dams constructed in steep mountainous areas require the rationalization of the dam
body and foundation system. In general, soil cement replacement or caissons are often …
