Abstract The paper investigates the problem of Soil‐Foundation‐Structure Interaction (SFSI) for buildings supported on piles through the comparative analysis between the fixed base and the compliant base assumptions. The structure, a nine‐storey residential building (with or without infills), is modelled in non‐linear regime while the piled foundation ...

su‐Based Shaft Friction Design Method and Evaluation for Pipe Pile
The shaft friction in clay is essential to bearing capacity of pipe piles. Reasonable selection of design methods and parameters is very important for offshore piles. This paper focuses on the current popular vertical load design methods based on undrained strength for pipe piles, especially for offshore piles.

Organic soil is characterised by high compressibility and should be improved so that it can be used for construction. The use of every method of soil improvement requires knowledge of the compressibility parameters.

Abstract Tributary rivers can contribute significantly to alluvial‐plain construction by supplying large volumes of clastic material. Their relation to the main axial river strongly influences sediment deposition and preservation. The Po Plain is fed by the Po River and a dense network of transverse tributaries draining the nearby Alpine and Apennine ...

Learning decision boundaries for cone penetration test classification
Abstract In geotechnical field investigations, cone penetration tests (CPT) are increasingly used for ground characterization of fine‐grained soils. Test results are different parameters that are typically visualized in CPT based data interpretation charts.

Analysis of piezocone penetration under different drainage conditions with the two-phase Material Point Method [PDF]
The piezocone penetration test (CPTU) is commonly used to identify the soil profile and to estimate material properties. Depending on the soil type, ranging from clay to sand, undrained, partially drained or drained conditions may occur during cone ...

Abstract Despite increased application of subsurface datasets below the limits of seismic resolution, reconstructing near‐surface deformation of shallow key stratigraphic markers beneath modern alluvial and coastal plains through sediment core analysis has received little attention.

Statistical Assessment of Simplified CPTU‐Based Hydraulic Conductivity Curves
Classical theoretical approaches to evaluate CPTU‐based hydraulic conductivity gave the expression of a bilinear relation defined by KD - BqQt, for undrained and drained soils. In fact, a dividing line may be selected with a certain degree of subjectivity, and several undrained/drained points occur in opposite sites, which may make us doubt the ...

The Use of CPTU and DMT Methods to Determine Soil Deformation Moduli—Perspectives and Limitations
The article presents the concept of determining constrained modulus—M0, initial shear modulus—G0, Young modulus—E, and rigidity index—IR on the basis of parameters from static penetration tests CPTU (Piezocone Penetration Testing), SCPTU (Seismic ...
