Micro piles and scaled vertical reinforcing elements are designed by using composite glass fiber reinforced polymers. Vertical part of the element is designed with pultruded fiberglass pipe. Full scale micro piles’ and scale models’ behavior within soft water saturated clay is assessed. Research includes variation of the pipes’ dimensions 100 × 4 mm produced earlier, 60 × 4 mm optimized after material strength calculations and scale models 30 × 3 mm designed for the laboratory tests to performed at the buckets. Vertical elements are equipped with an end bearing screws made from the cast iron. Lightweight materials are intended to be corrosion and thermal/electrical resistant. It is proposed to use finite element software for pre modelling of the laboratory and field tests planned to be performed after. Calculation of vertical settlements proofs reduction of up to 30% compared to the not reinforced samples. Results of the calculations are compared to the earlier site and lab tests. Site tests have proofed overdesigned strength of initial GFRP sections 100 × 4. Calculations reflect the load value distribution between the vertical elements and soil mass.
