RISResponse of Batter-Piled Raft Foundations with Different Superstructures during Seismic Events: Outcomes from Shaking Table Tests
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The performance of batter-piled raft systems during seismic events continues to be a major concern. In response, a series of shaking table tests, including vertical and nonvertical configurations, were conducted, and the ...
Comparison between Free- and Fixed-Head Pile Group Responses under Lateral Spreading in the Presence of Protection Piles Using Shake Table Tests
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Many instances of severe damage to pile foundations and pile-supported infrastructures have been caused by liquefaction-induced lateral spreading during major earthquakes, particularly in coastal areas. The current study ...
Micro–Macro Assessment of the Pile Bearing Capacity Interaction with Single and Double Voids in Different Soil Densities Using the Discrete-Element Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study focuses on how soil's inherent variability, driven by environmental changes, introduces substantial uncertainty into geotechnical considerations. Voids forming underground are a key source of this uncertainty, ...
Experimental Study of the Static and Dynamic Characteristics of Lightweight EPS Composite Soils Treated with Cement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads mixed with soil and cement are a new type of artificial lightweight fill material used in geotechnical practices. Hence, it is necessary to adopt an exhaustive procedure for evaluating the ...
Use of Vertical and Inclined Walls to Mitigate the Interaction of Reverse Faulting and Shallow Foundations: Centrifuge Tests and Numerical Simulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research introduces a new effective approach, including a weak vertical wall (WVW) and a strong inclined wall (SIW) under a shallow foundation, to reduce the rotations caused by a fault rupture. A series of centrifuge ...
