The influence of connecting pile cap-column in the mechanisms of break in the two pile caps [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2016
The paper analyzes the two pile caps with partially embedded socket and subject a center load. Three models were experimentally tested, varying the type of conformation of the column and walls of the socket, with a smooth, the other rough, and a ...

Effect of the pile cap length and the soil relative density on the pile cap – pile – dense soil interaction: Experimental investigation

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
In the present study, the RC pile cap-pile-soil interaction was experimentally investigated by testing twelve half-scale RC pile caps. Two main parameters were considered within the experimental program; the first factor was the relative density of the ...

3D numerical modeling of the deformation and failure mechanisms of batter pile groups subjected to fault ruptures [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Fault ruptures induced by earthquakes pose a significant threat to constructions, particularly underground structures such as pile foundations. Among various foundation types, batter pile foundations are widely used due to their ability to resist ...

Nonlinear dynamic analysis of pile foundation using finite element method [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Nonlinear dynamic response analysis of pile foundations is essential in seismic regions, where soil–pile–structure interaction governs safety and serviceability. Ethiopia’s location along the African and Arabian tectonic plates exposes its infrastructure

Locking beam influence on behavior of reinforced concrete two pile caps with embedded socket

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Technology, 2014
This paper analyzes the behavior of reinforced concrete two pile caps with embedded socket, used as connection in precast concrete structures. To this end, it was specifically studied the effect of the locking beam on the pile caps when supported by the ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Pile-Supported Embankments for Loose Sandy Soils

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
This research focuses on advancing the geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankment technology over loose sandy soil. A small-scale laboratory model supported by floating piles and a geotextile layer was constructed, and a numerical model was ...

Numerical analyses of two-pile caps considering lateral friction between the piles and soil

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021
: Pile caps are structural elements used to transfer loads from the superstructure to a group of piles. The design of caps is normally based on analytical formulations, considering the strut and tie method. Through the advance of computational technology,

Use of Pile Driving Analysis for Assessment of Axial Load Capacity of Piles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Driven piles are commonly used in foundation engineering. Pile driving formulae, which directly relate the pile set per blow to the capacity of the pile, are commonly used to decide whether an installed pile will have the designed capacity.

Temperature response functions (G-functions) for single pile heat exchangers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Foundation piles used as heat exchangers as part of a ground energy system have the potential to reduce energy use and carbon dioxide emissions from new buildings. However, current design approaches for pile heat exchangers are based on methods developed
