About this episode
A collection of highly technical papers focusing on the design, analysis, installation, and performance of various pile foundations in geotechnical engineering. Key topics include the development of new construction methods like press-in piling and specialized drilling techniques for challenging urban or offshore environments, often emphasizing low-noise and low-vibration approaches. Several articles specifically address advanced seismic design concepts, analyzing the behavior of deep foundations under large earthquakes, liquefaction, and lateral soil movements using methods such as centrifuge model tests and finite element analysis. Additionally, the text explores detailed research into pile capacity estimation, including load-transfer mechanisms, the comparison of jacked and driven piles, and the mechanics of complex foundations like piled rafts and sheet-pile foundations, often integrating field testing (like the O-cell test) and the adoption of modern limit state design codes (Eurocode/DIN standards).
