Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental program using large model piles in sand was conducted to study the shaft resistance behavior of piles subject to uplift loads. Model single pipe piles of different diameters (45 to 178 mm) were subjected to static uplift loading to failure. The piles, which had an embedded length of about 1.7 to 2 m, were installed in a large test pit (3 by 3 by 3 m) by three different methods (driving, jacking, and a reference undisturbed method with negligible lateral displacement) to assess the influence of method of installation on shaft resistance. The tests were performed in two initial densities of a sand (loose and dense). The experimental results were analyzed statistically. The results show that the initial sand density and the method of pile installation are the most significant factors that affect uplift capacity. Installation methods that cause less disturbance give higher uplift capacity. Unit shaft resistance could be reduced as much as by half depending on the method of pile installation relative to the undisturbed method. The displacement at the ultimate uplift load is in the range of 5 to 12.5 mm and independent of soil type and pile diameter, but depends on method of pile installation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises select papers presented during the Indian Geotechnical Conference 2018. This volume discusses construction challenges and issues in geotechnical engineering. The contents cover foundation design and analysis, issues related to geotechnical structures, including dams, retaining walls, embankments and pavements, and rock mechanics and construction in rocks and rocky environments. Many of the papers discuss live case studies related to important geotechnical engineering projects worldwide, providing useful insights into the realistic designs and constructions. This volume will be of interest to students, researchers and practitioners alike.

Download or read book Handbook of Geotechnical Investigation and Design Tables written by Burt G. Look and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical handbook of properties for soils and rock contains, in a concise tabular format, the key issues relevant to geotechnical investigations, assessments and designs in common practice. In addition, there are brief notes on the application of the tables. These data tables are compiled for experienced geotechnical professionals who require a reference document to access key information. There is an extensive database of correlations for different applications. The book should provide a useful bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application to practical engineering solutions. The initial chapters deal with the planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and rock properties and some of the more used testing is then covered. Later chapters show the reliability and correlations that are used to convert that data in the interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design. This book is intended primarily for practicing geotechnical engineers working in investigation, assessment and design, but should provide a useful supplement for postgraduate courses.
