A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This chapter deals with deep foundations and begins with a discussion on the strategy to be adopted for designing deep foundations. It describes the method of installation of bored piles and driven piles, and discusses pile driving formulas and explains the concept of wave propagation in a pile. Then, it discusses the vertical load considerations for a single pile and pile groups. Downdrag of a single pile and groups of piles is also discussed. Piles in shrink‐swell soils are subjected to soil movements that may increase or decrease the compression load in the pile. Separate sections of the chapter explain the horizontal load moment for single pile and groups of piles. A combined piled raft foundation (CPRF) is intermediate between a mat foundation and a pilegroup foundation. Guidelines for CPRF have been proposed by the ISSMGE technical Committee on Deep Foundations.
