Integrity Testing of Three Model Piles with a Pile Cap

Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2018
Abstract Nondestructive pile integrity testing (PIT) methods based on the propagation of sonic/ultrasonic waves have been widely used for the quality assurance of newly constructed drilled shafts. However, application of these techniques for forensic investigations of existing piles may encounter difficulties that are due to the ...

Seismic performance of prestressed concrete piles and pile-pile cap connections

1987
The performance, strength and ductility of prestressed concrete piles, and their connection to pile caps, subjected to severe seismic loading are investigated in this thesis. Knowledge of the strength and ductility of the pile within its embedded length in the foundation material is of importance due to the large deformations which can occur during an ...

Effect of Pile Layout and Pile Cap Thickness on Load Distribution in Piles

2018
The paper illustrates, through practical examples, the effect of pile layout and pile cap thickness on the load distribution among different piles in a pile group. Study has been done considering square and rectangular pile cap configurations with different pile cap thickness being considered for each pile arrangement pattern.

The relevance of the pile-soil and pile heads-pile cap coupling assumptions in the dynamic response of a pile-cap system

When simulating the response of buildings on piled foundations due to ground vibration, the coupling conditions between the piles, the soil and the building structure may have an important effect on the results. In this paper, the significance of the coupling conditions between the piles and the soil, as well as the interaction assumptions adopted to ...

Footings, pile caps and retaining walls

2013
Introduction For a traditional building or bridge structure, the vertical forces in the walls, columns and piers are carried to the subsoil through a foundation system. The most common system consists of footings. In soft soil, because the bearing capacity is low, piles are needed to transfer the forces from the superstructure to deeper grounds where
