Validation of the Improved Soil Base Model for the Simulation of Multi-Section Buildings on Pile Foundations

Bases and Foundations
In the construction industry, large-scale slab and pile-raft foundations are used for the construction of multi-storey buildings and structures with significant loads on a non-rocky soil foundation.

Specific features of interaction of massive slab foundations with the soil

Bases and Foundations
At this time, the actual direction of research in the geotechnical sciences is the rehabilitation and design of energy objects, which in Ukraine were often built on slab foundations (NPPs, TPPs and others) The arrangement of slab foundations, which are ...

Toward new educational foundations from the metaphysical catastrophe in the Global South

The SoJo Journal: Educational Foundations and Social Justice Education
The paper looks at Maldonado-Torres's (2016) idea of “metaphysical catastrophe” and how it helps to understand the marginalization happening in the Global South. This paper, by focusing on the LGBTQ + community in Iran, uses one clear example to show

Experimental Curvature and Moment Response of Pile Foundations: Comparison With P-Y Predictions

Deep Foundations Institute 50th Annual Conference Proceedings
The response of pile foundations to lateral loading is a crucial aspect of pile design under extreme load events.  This paper compares the experimental p-y response of three heavily instrumented, large-scale foundation elements subjected to reverse ...
