Emergency Repair of Severely Eroded Highway Embankment with Pressed-In Pipe Piles
Emergency reconstruction of the lower retaining wall of a flood-damaged highway in a mountainous part of Japan was safely completed in one season with a pressed-in pipe pile wall and earth anchors. The access to the pile line was limited due to just one lane of the highway left undamaged with an unstable slope below it. The 1,300 mm diameter pipe piles were rotated, simultaneously pressed in, and socketed 1,300 mm into a black schist bedrock through colluvial sand, gravel, and boulder layers. The adoption of this construction method achieved much faster construction with much lower construction cost compared to other types considered.
