Book Geotechnical Engineering

Download or read book Geotechnical Engineering written by Ruwan Rajapakse and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive pile design and construction guide to practising geotechnical engineers. The book does not require any special technical knowledge other than basic mathematical skills. The first portion deals with construction aspects of piling. In this section, pile types, pile hammers, piling techniques, problems associated with piling work and cost considerations are discussed. Second portion of the book is devoted to pile design. Pile design in different soil conditions, pile groups, pile settlement, Bitumen coated pile design and lateral loading analysis were some of the subjects discussed. Almost all the chapters in the design section contain design examples. Design examples are provided to complement the theory and the designer should not follow the examples blindly during the design process"--Bookjacket

Book New Horizons in Piling

Download or read book New Horizons in Piling written by Malcolm D. Bolton and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-01-23 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The piling industry has, in recent years, developed a variety of press-in piling technologies with a view to mitigate noise & vibration nuisance. This book focuses on the "Walk-on-Pile" type press-in piling system, which offers an alternative engineering solution for piling works. This type of piling has unique features, including the application of the compact piling machine using pre-installed piles as a source of reaction force to jack in a new pile by hydraulic pressure. Moreover, the machine can walk along the top of piles already installed, thus enabling piling in a limited space and headroom with minimum disruption to social functions and services of existing infrastructure. These features are opening up a new horizon in piling, leading to novel application of embedded walls previously considered impossible. This introductory book provides a historical development of press-in piling and various challenging applications worldwide as well as scientific research outcomes, forming a valuable source of reference for readers who are unfamiliar with press-in piling, including project owners, design engineers, practical engineers as well as researchers and students.
