A reliability based method was used to design and analyse shallow foundations using first-order Taylor series approximation.
The computer program Mathcad was used to facilitate all mathematical and computional efforts. This method is an effective
tool to assist the foundation designers and analyists to investigate how reliable their designs or analyses are in relation
to the ultimate bearing capacity of the foundations. The approach presented in this paper provides a reliable alternative
for design and analysis of shallow foundations, rather than the conventional design methods, which employs the assumptions
of a specified saftey factor. Several examples were presented for design and analysis of strip footings embedded in sandy
soil, and rectangular and square footings analysis embedded in clayey soils. The program input and output of each example
are also presented and discussed. 相似文献

A new methodology for deriving the uplift load–displacement response of long driven piles in cohesionless soils is proposed. This method accounts for the effects of the friction fatigue processes during pile driving and the existence of locked-in residual stresses at the end of pile driving before commencing the pile load test. A hyperbolic formulation is utilized to simulate the nonlinear load transfer curves (the so-called t–z curves). The utility of this technique is demonstrated for a field pullout load test on a driven pile in sand. Predicted and measured load–displacement curves showed good agreement, indicating that this approach yields reasonable results as long as representative input parameters are employed. 相似文献

Prehistorical earthquake induced features, such as faults, folds, fissures, and slumps have been discovered during the Karameh dam construction. The dam is located close to the plate tectonics boundary formed by the active Jordan Valley Fault. Of most importance are those known as the fold-type deformations ``décollement type of structure' which are well preserved in the laminated Lisan formations. These features show that historical moderate to strongly sized earthquake activities are likely to have been originated in the vicinity of the dam site. Such features may well provide valuable information for identification of areas of highly strong earthquake regions. 相似文献

A simplified analytical formulation is presented for the mechanism by which micropiles surrounded by compacted sand control
the upward movement of lightweight buildings over expansive soils. This formulation identifies the significant variables influencing
the performance of micropile reinforcement. A design methodology for micropile reinforcement utilizing the resulting formulation
is proposed and illustrated by a hypothetical example.

In this study, a database comprised of 30 pullout pile load tests was collected from geotechnical literature and analyzed to investigate the dependency of unit shaft resistance on effective vertical stress. The collected database consists of steel pipe, timber, and concrete piles, with varying normalized penetration depth with respect to pile diameter, driven into loose to very dense sand. Different correlations for the uplift lateral earth pressure coefficient K, Bjerrum-Burland ratio , and the average unit shaft resistance f
ave were derived using different assumptions. A comparison between measured and predicted capacities of the collected piles using the developed correlations indicated that the assumption of values of K and that were constant with depth did not provide a reasonable fit for the measured capacities of the collected piles and thus this assumption is inappropriate. The best correlations for K and that yield a reasonable fit to the measured capacities of the collected piles were found to be functions of sand relative density, pile diameter, and level of effective vertical stress. This indicates that average unit shaft resistance does not reach a limiting value, but rather continues to increase with depth. Moreover, the correlations for K and in terms of effective stress revealed that average unit shaft resistance increases as pile diameter decreases and this increase depends on initial sand relative density. Comparisons of measured and predicted pullout capacities of the collected piles using the best-obtained correlations for K and were made and compared to predictionsobtained from other methods. On the basis of these comparisons, it is concluded that the correlations for K and in terms of effective stress give results comparable to those obtained from other methods, without stipulating limiting values for the average unit shaft resistance. 相似文献
