Download or read book Nondestructive Testing of Deep Foundations written by Bernard Hertlein and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-01-11 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nondestructive Testing involves the use of methods such as wave propagation, electromagnetism, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity to test structural integrity and thereby allow nondestructive assessment of structures and the possibility of structural failures before they occur. Nondestructive Testing of Deep Foundations covers different techniques designed to provide information about the integrity and quality of the material that makes up a deep foundation. Nondestructive Testing methods are used at all stages of a structure's life - from new construction quality control to residual lifetime prediction, and even during the monitoring of demolition. In addition, Nondestructive Testing is being increasingly specified in deep foundation projects, though often without a good understanding of its limitations and with the result that methods are often misused. In order to be able to specify an appropriate method, or to recognize an inappropriate specification, it is necessary for the engineer, specifier and/or contractor to understand the capabilities and limitations of each of the methods currently in use. Nondestructive Testing of Deep Foundations: Describes the most commonly used deep foundation construction techniques, including typical use of material Provides a brief history of the development of commercially available nondestructive methods Summarises each method's capabilities and limitations Acts as a one stop reference drawing together resources only previously available in conference proceedings and journal papers This manual will prove to be a welcome addition to the bookshelf of all practitioners in civil/structural and geotechnical engineering and architecture. It will also provide a valuable insight into this highly technical field for university researchers, lecturers and postgraduate students in civil/structural and geotechnical engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Designing and Testing Deep Foundations contains 25 papers on designing, constructing, and testing various types of piles and piled rafts. This Geotechnical Special Publication No. 129 honors the late Professor Michael W. O'Neill, Ph.D., P.E., a distinguished educator and researcher who made significant contributions toward the advancement of the state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice of deep foundations. Professor O'Neill played a critical role in investigating the load transfer mechanisms of various types of piles in soils and rocks and was internationally known for his work on drilled shafts, augered piles, and field testing of various types of piles. This publication is an effective means of sharing the advances in deep foundations with practitioners, researchers, and designers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One-of-a-kind coverage on the fundamentals of foundation analysis and design Analysis and Design of Shallow and Deep Foundations is a significant new resource to the engineering principles used in the analysis and design of both shallow and deep, load-bearing foundations for a variety of building and structural types. Its unique presentation focuses on new developments in computer-aided analysis and soil-structure interaction, including foundations as deformable bodies. Written by the world's leading foundation engineers, Analysis and Design of Shallow and Deep Foundations covers everything from soil investigations and loading analysis to major types of foundations and construction methods. It also features: * Coverage on computer-assisted analytical methods, balanced with standard methods such as site visits and the role of engineering geology * Methods for computing the capacity and settlement of both shallow and deep foundations * Field-testing methods and sample case studies, including projects where foundations have failed, supported with analyses of the failure * CD-ROM containing demonstration versions of analytical geotechnical software from Ensoft, Inc. tailored for use by students in the classroom
