Use of Soil-Cement Piles for Bridge Support
This paper presents the experience gained by the California Department of Transportation on the use of soil-cement piling techniques for the support of a bridge widening structure in San Francisco, California. Four pre-production soil-cement piles, installed using a soil-cement jetting system, were tested in compression and tension. One of the piles was fully instrumented with strain gauges and tell-tales. The tests revealed that high side resistance measured in dense sands is caused primarily by irregularities in the soil-cement pile surface. Tests also indicate that post-grouting of soil-cement piles represents an effective remedial alternative to mitigate non-compliant piles.
