A New Technique for Reduction of Excess Pore Pressures During Pile Driving

Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1974
A new technique is described whereby excess pore pressures induced during pile driving in soft, varved silts and clays were economically reduced to a safe level. The technique was applied to piles at a bridge site south of Stockholm, Sweden, where a small slide had occurred during pile driving.

Consolidation Characteristics And Excess Pore Water Pressures Of Mississippi Delta Sediments

Offshore Technology Conference, 1978
ABSTRACT The majority of sediment instability problems in the Mississippi delta area of the Gulf of Mexico are related to weak, under consolidated sediments that are subjected to movement by both gravity forces and bottom pressures from storm waves.

Identifying Consolidation Coefficient: Linear Excess Pore-Water Pressure

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2008
Diagnostic curve methods are developed for simultaneously identifying consolidation coefficient, final settlement, and ratio of top and bottom excess pore-water pressures from observed settlements, in the case of linear excess pore-water pressure. Simple equations are also proposed for estimating consolidation coefficient and final settlement.

Evaluation of excess pore pressures around piles driven into clayey soils

2015
In many cases, excess pore pressures generated during pile driving into clayey soils lead to a decrease in the effective stresses around the pile, thus facilitating the driving process. The dissipation of these pore pressures can be considered as the main mechanism that explains the occurrence of gains in load capacity of piles with time, known as set ...

Excess pore pressure and in situ measurement of shear strength gain in clays

2012
study compares predicted and field measured excess pore pressures in a soft, saturated clay subjected to an embankment loading. It compares the increases in soil strength due to consolidation as measured with in situ vane shear, unconfined compression, and triaxial test methods.

Consolidated Characteristics and Excess Pore Water Pressures of Mississippi Fan Sediments

1985
Examination of the geotechnical properties of the Quaternary sediments from the middle and lower portions of the Mississippi Fan shows that the sediments are normally consolidated to overconsolidated to a depth of 40 to 50 below the seafloor. Beyond that depth, the sediments become highly underconsolidated and exhibit high excess pore water pressures ...
