21. Piling Engineering, Third Edition

    By Ken Fleming, Austin Weltman, Mark Randolph, Keith Elson

    Piling is a fast moving field and recent years have seen major advances in theory, methods, testing procedures and equipment. Some of these changes have been driven by the need for economies and efficiency, reduced spoil production and new methods of pile bore support. Advances in theoretical...

22. Rapid Load Testing on Piles

    Edited by Paul Holscher, Frits A. van Tol

    To obtain data about the stiffness and bearing capacity of a foundation pile, the Rapid Load Test could be an effective and economic alternative for a static load test. In order to judge this, the influence of rate effects in clay and pore water pressures in sand should first be understood. This...

23. Deep Foundations on Bored and Auger Piles - BAP V

    5th International Symposium on Deep Foundations on Bored and Auger Piles (BAP V), 8-10 September 2008, Ghent, Belgium, Book + CD-ROM

    Edited by William F. Van Impe, Peter van Impe

    Although progressing very well over the last years, the design criteria for bored and auger piles are still not fully under control and in acceptable synergism with the real pile foundation behaviour. Although there has been a lot of research in the past years worldwide on deep...

24. Advances in Transportation Geotechnics

    Proceedings of the International Conference held in Nottingham, UK, 25-27 August 2008

    Edited by Ed Ellis, Hai-Sui Yu, Glenn McDowell, Andrew R. Dawson, Nick Thom

    Highways provide the arteries of modern society. The interaction of road, rail and other transport infrastructure with the ground is unusually intimate, and thus needs to be well-understood to provide economic and reliable infrastructure for society. Challenges include not only the design of new...
