Preface DFI-INDIA 2018: The Eighth Annual Conference on Deep Foundation Technologies for Infrastructure Development in India with a one-day pre-conference workshop on Ground Improvement Techniques - Column Support Embankments and Soil Mixing is being organised by Deep Foundations Institute (DFI) and DFI of India during 15-17 November 2018 at IIT Gandhinagar near Ahmedabad. Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar, Gujarat, and Indian Geotechnical Society-Ahmedabad Chapter are the collaborators. DFI is an international non-profit forum for engineers, contractors, manufacturers, equipment suppliers, and academia to share knowledge that improves the planning, design, and construction aspects of deep foundations and deep excavations. In 1996, DFI organised its first conference in India in Mumbai (Bombay). DFI of India was registered in the year 2013 as a non-profit organisation with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MOCA) and entered into an affiliation agreement with DFI. Seven annual conferences on a common theme Deep Foundation Technologies for Infrastructure Development in India were organised at Hyderabad, IIT Madras, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IISc Bangalore, IIEST Shibpur and IIT Madras. The conference is designed to have three main events: a one-day workshop on Ground Improvement Techniques - Column Support Embankments and Soil Mixing, a two-day conference to highlight four important aspects of quality foundation construction, viz., Deep Foundations in Infrastructure Projects – Owners Perspective; Geotechnical Investigation - testing, contractual and reporting requirements; Best Design Practices and New Technology Initiatives; and Ground Improvement, Piling and Deep Excavation & Support Technologies. The third event which runs parallel with the conference is the exhibition, is to showcase the latest technologies, equipment, testing & monitoring techniques, and special materials. Eight Keynote lectures from overseas and Indian experts and forty four presentations from industry specialists and researchers are the highlights of this conference. Abstracts of these technical presentations are compiled and presented in this Souvenir. The full-length papers are provided in electronic media. A Panel Discussion on Possible Solutions for Handling Issues in Geotechnical/Foundation Scope of Major Infrastructure/Building Projects and an introductory session on the Women in Deep Foundations on the first day of the conference are special events of this conference. For making this souvenir a valuable document and guide, the organising committee has included technical abstracts, along with messages of dignitaries, details of sponsors and exhibitors. We hope the volume will be of interest and benefit to the delegates. A Conference of this scale would not be possible without the support and contributions of the invited Speakers, Authors, Conference Sponsors, Exhibitors and Delegates. We gratefully acknowledge all for their generous support and inspirational participation. Even though there is a good number of sponsors and exhibitors, the turnout was far below the expectations. DFI of India is hoping for more substantial participation in the coming years as economic conditions of India are improving. We also express our sincere gratitude to the members of the Advisory Committee, Organizing Committee, Technical Committee and Student Volunteers for their untiring efforts, besides individuals who lent their quiet efforts for making this Conference a great success. The enthusiastic support in the form of guidance, close coordination and follow up by Ms Theresa Engler, Executive Director, Ms Mary Ellen Large, Technical Activities Manager, and the staff of DFI are gratefully acknowledged. The untiring support from Prof. Amit Prashant and his team at IIT Gandhinagar made this conference a great event. The efforts from Mr G V Prasad, Director-operations at DFI of India, Mr Mohamed Athif, Mr Chandrasekhar and Mr T.S. Mahendran, all at DFI of India is highly appreciated.

Message from Director Operations, DFI of India

I have pleasure in welcoming you to the 8th DFII Conference. Particularly, DFI US team, the distinguished international and Indian authors, sponsors, exhibitors, delegates and student participants. We are pleased to share with you not only DFII’s successful journey over the past five years but also our plans to implement new technologies, skill programs, enhanced work practices in keeping with our Vision of evolving the Indian Deep Foundation Industry as a force to reckon with. We are very thankful to DFI US team, EC team for guiding and supporting us in every step of our present journey. We have set up a full-time office since December 2017 to work on the said programs and have developed a well oriented full-time support staff. We are quite happy to inform that good progress has been achieved during the last ten months in DFII’s multiple initiatives. To mention few: • We successfully conducted a two-day training program for more than 70 engineers of the Chennai Metro Rail project for “Quality Geotechnical Investigation”. • It is jointly agreed between DFI and CMRL to form DFI-CMRL Geotechnical Construction Working Group (DFI-CMRL GCWG) comprising global experts to formulate guidelines covering planning, design, contractual, equipment management, construction and testing aspects. CMRL plans to make these guidelines a part of its second phase project bid documents to secure capable contractors to implement best international practices and mitigate project risks to a significant extent. DFII will be developing more training programs to enhance the skill levels of engineers/workmen/operators which in turn will enhance the performance of the second phase project. DFII has affected complete design and construction document and is ready to execute a continuous flight auger test pile project at NPCIL, Haryana site to showcase this alternate piling option in the Indian Deep Foundation Industry. This provides time/cost/quality/speed advantage • DFI Sub-Surface Characterization Committee constituted recently, comprising eminent geotechnical experts in India, will address all issues related to soil investigation as also to document and recommend all possible solutions to forward-thinking organisations. This Committee hopes to develop and implement skill training programs covering supervisors, field and laboratory technicians so that a dedicated pool of trained manpower is made available to the industry. DFII is doing the required groundwork to identify indigenous solutions covering technology and training programs so that the same can be developed and implemented. DFI has successfully put more technical committees in place comprising members drawn from owners, general contractors, specialist contractors, consultants and equipment manufacturers to find solutions in different specialised areas on a self-help basis. Since DFII started treading this path, already three committees have been formed as on date. They will strive for the cause of the Indian Deep Foundation Industry in developing new technologies and training programs. DFII team is meeting senior management teams of major organisations to present the DFII initiatives seeking their support to ensure that the Indian Deep Foundation Industry is comparable to the best. In the last ten months, it has interacted with organisations like NPCIL, CMRL, AECOM, HCC, ITDCem, Keller, BHEL, National Academy of Construction as well as IIT Gandhi Nagar and will have more such interactions. Most of them are keen to work with us jointly in areas of specific interest to them. We are overwhelmed by the very positive response to our ideas from all these organisations Apart from lectures on topics of interest to different groups of industry delivered by well-known international and Indian speakers, the delegates to the 8th DFII Conference will also have a chance to hear more about DFII initiatives. We welcome one and all once again. Mr. G Venkata Prasad Director-Operations DFI of India

KEYNOTE LECTURE HOW FOUNDATION EXPLORATION EFFECTS CONSTRUCTION AND LIFE OF SUPER STRUCTURE Vivek P. Kapadia, Narmada Water Resources Department, Water Supply and Kalpasar Dept., Govt of Gujarat, India

Foundation exploration is always not economical. It is sometime prima facie a time-consuming exercise. Therefore, in several projects, foundation exploration is carried out to a limited extent. Finally, during the construction, some mysterious findings appeared suddenly, and the project gets derailed. In India, several such experiences are found. On the other hand, in some projects, it is found that foundation exploration is done with requisite accuracy and crucial design changes are introduced timely or foundation treatment is done properly as a result of which the project is executed very well. What is important is to learn from both the types of experiences as to what is the real significance of foundation exploration and how it becomes crucial for the execution and performance of the project in long run. The discussion is focused on the said learning with case studies of both the types. About the Presenter Mr. Vivek P. Kapadia is presently Chief Engineer and Director in the Narmada Water Resources Department, Water Supply and Kalpasar Department, Government of Gujarat. He is working with large projects like lift irrigation schemes, Bhadbhut Barrage (which is a 1.64-Kilometre-long estiarine barrage on Narmada River), Kalpasar Project (which would be a huge dam approx. 30 KM long in the Gulf of Khambat). He has obtained Master of Engineering, Master of Law, Post-graduation in Business Administration and Computer Application. He has been actively involved in design, execution and policy making in the field of Water Resources Engineering. He has been one of the pioneers of the participatory water conservation movement ushered in Gujarat. He has been instrumental in designing and restoration of many large structures of irrigation projects by using innovative techniques. He has done pioneering work on the application of geosynthetics in canals and hydraulic structures. He has more than 100 papers in national and international forums/journals.

KEYNOTE LECTURE AN OWNERS PERSPECTIVE IN MANAGING GROUND AND FOUNDATION RELATED RISKS Conrad W. Felice, Ph.D., P.E., D. GE, and FASCE, Managing Principal, C. W. Felice, LLC

This presentation will highlight an owner’s perspective and several specific tools and techniques to mitigate and manage ground and foundation related risks from tender development through construction. Ground related risks continue to dominate claims, cost escalation, and schedule delays on large infrastructure projects regardless of the contract delivery system. As more projects anticipate using Design-Build and Public-Private Partnerships or other alternative delivery systems, innovative contract requirements, specifications, and tools are needed to assist owners in anticipating and managing risks to minimize change orders, avoid cost increases and schedule delays. Specific concerns to owners are how much information to provide prior to contract award, establishing appropriate contract baseline conditions, sharing the risk on differing site conditions, managing changing design conditions after award, establishing the appropriate roles and responsibilities for an owner, how best to ensure contract compliance, and how to maintain the desired quality assurance, control, and verification from design through completed construction. About the Presenter Dr Conrad Felice is serving as the Washington State Department of Transportation owners’ representative and Geotechnical Design Manager for the over $2.5 billion I-405 Corridor Program.

KEYNOTE LECTURE RISK ANALYSIS, RISK ASSESSMENT AND DESIGN OF A NEW DEVELOPED SLOPE STABILIZATION Professor Dr-Ing. Rolf Katzenbach, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Robert-Bosch-Str. 9, 64293 Darmstadt, Germany, [email protected]

ABSTRACT In a river valley with extremely steep slopes a 160 m high and about 1.7 km long Motorway bridge is to be built. By the use of the observational method, relevant downhill orientated slope displacements have been detected with inclinometers. To secure the overall stability of the bridge piers and of the slope challenging stabilization measures become necessary. Due to the extremely complicated local conditions a new technical method for slope stabilization has been developed. Therefore about 45 m deep shafts with a diameter of 6.6 m are constructed. For the load transfer the shafts are connected with a 4.2 m x 6.3 m thick and 32 m long strongly reinforced head board and tied back with up to 55 m long permanent anchors. This new developed slope stabilization construction will be used in combination with permanent groundwater lowering. To analyse the applicability of the construction, a nonlinear 3D-Finite-Element-Model of the steep slope with the anchored shafts was developed and a parameter study has been conducted. In this paper the risk analysis, the risk assessment and the new developed slope stabilization scheme using the anchored shafts as well as the 3D-FE-Analysis will be described in detail. Keywords: Natural Hazards, Slope Stability, Observational Method, Landslides About the Presenter: Professor Dr-Ing. Rolf Katzenbach is Professor at the Institute and Laboratory of Geotechnics at the Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany and CEO of his international consulting office. He is a board member of several international and national organisations like DFI.

KEYNOTE LECTURE COMMUNICATING OBJECTIVES AND RISK AMONG PROJECT SHAREHOLDERS Antonio Marinucci, Ph.D., MBA, P.E., M.ASCE,Principal V2C Strategists LLC, Brooklyn, NY USA

As projects have become increasingly larger and more complex, especially in urban settings, project management and delivery, including communications, have become more convoluted, demanding, and, at times, antagonistic. As ideal project sites have been depleted, new construction developments are being performed in congested spaces, are facing increased requirements and regulations, and are being executed with shorter and shorter durations. Up until the past few decades, the Design-BidBuild project delivery approach was the predominant contracting method in which the entire design and project documents were completed prior to the commencement of construction. For Design-BidBuild projects, the owner via its hired engineer bears the risk for the design, and the contractor bears the risk for executing the work (e.g., productivity, schedule, cost, performance, etc.). More recently, alternative project delivery methods, such as Design-Build, are being utilized to offset the shortfall in available funding, to expedite the construction of the work, and to reallocate risk. With the Design-Build method, the owner provides an incomplete design (at about 30% stage or less) and a technical concept from which interested parties/teams can provide an offer. Furthermore, the risk and responsibility for design, construction, and performance are borne by the contractor’s team, who are most capable to mitigate the risk, are able to realize increased productivity and flexibility, and able to decrease the overall cost. Together with tightened funding and scheduling, these intricate construction endeavours have resulted in greater demands on and mandate quicker action by each project participant. Therefore, open communication and clear understanding of objectives, goals, and risks by all shareholders on a project are crucial to the project’s success. This paper will present and discuss various issues such as allocation of risk and responsibility, documentation, and communication, along with relevant court interpretations, that are commonly confronted throughout a project, and will provide recommendations on how best to address these concerns to ensure a successful outcome for all project shareholders. About the Presenter: Dr Marinucci is a principal at V2C Strategists LLC in Brooklyn, New York, the executive editor of DFI’s Deep Foundations magazine, and a researcher/lecturer at the Tandon School of Engineering at NYU. He received a Ph.D. degree in civil engineering (geotechnical concentration) from the Univ. of Texas at Austin, an MBA degree from the Univ. of Rhode Island, and a MSCE degree from North-eastern Univ. Dr Marinucci has more than 20 years of progressive experience in the geo-construction industry. He is a registered professional engineer in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, a certified NHI instructor, and an active member of numerous professional organizations and technical committees. Dr Marinucci has authored or co-authored more than 35 peer reviewed technical publications on design and construction applications, practical research, and legal issues relating to geotechnical engineering and the geo-construction industry.

Das, Sr. Consultant (Bridges), LEA Associates South Asia Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, India, jpdas@lasaindia. com Dinakar Mandal, Chief General Manager, LEA Associates South Asia Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, India, dinakar@ lasaindia.com ABSTRACT:Presently Mayor Mohammad Hanif Flyover is the longest Elevated corridor in Bangladesh. This flyover was built in the congested part of the Old Dhaka City namely Sonir Akhra - Jatrabari Gulistan - Polashi Area of Bangladesh connecting with the main highway bound to Chittagaong Port. The total length of the flyover was 10.6 km including 11 numbers of UP/Down ramps and related infrastructure. The entire flyover including all the ramps are supported by cast-in-situ RCC Bored Pile foundation of 1.20 m diameter and of varying length from 16.25 m to 37.25 m. The alignment of the flyover passes through the old Dhaka city having numbers of different types of underground utilities namely water pipe line, electric cable line, sewerage pipe lines, gas pipe lines and T&T lines. It was a great challenge to finalize the details of pile group and its cap for the foundation of entire flyover by keeping most of the major different utilities in its own position without relocating the same. As a result, separate design for all the 315 numbers of pile group of different regular and irregular shapes comprising of total 2366 numbers of pile shaft was done for the entire flyover. The LRFD method of AASHTO 4th Edition 2007 was adopted for the design of pile foundation of the flyover. Hydraulic Drilling Rig was used for pile boring and plant made ready mix concrete (RMC) through “Tremie” was used to do the pile concerting. This paper presents the detailed design philosophy and construction methodology of pile foundations of the flyover.

A REVIEW ON T SHAPED DEEP MIXING TECHNOLOGY IN ENGINEERING PROJECTS Rashmi Patel, Research Scholar, SVKM’s NMIMS MPSTME, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, swtrashmi@ gmail.com

Jigisha Vashi, Assistant Professor, SVKM’s NMIMS MPSTME, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, vashi.jigisha@ gmail.com

ABSTRACT: Deep mixing (DM) method is commonly used for supporting embankments on soft grounds for highway and railway engineering. This method is replete with issues of insufficient mixing, grout spilling, and column strength decreasing with depth. These problems can be resolved by the new technology of T-Shaped Deep Mixing column, which improves the quality of soft soil, which in turn further improves the embankment stability. TDM column have an enlarged cap and therefore it can take more applied load in comparison to the conventional column which further results in less stress in soil further resulting in decreased soil settlement and differential settlement of the ground, and an increase in consolidation rate. The parameters studied here for field embankment loading conditions were, stress concentration ratio, excess pore water pressures generated in the soft clays, total monitored settlement, and lateral soil displacement. From the literature it is observed that TDM columns has significant advantages over conventional DM columns because of mitigation of settlement and improved performance of the embankments while decreasing construction costs. It is also found that material used in TDM column is less compared to conventional DM column which decreases the construction cost of the project. The results indicate that TDM method is a more economic and efficient solution for soft ground improvement under embankments. Earlier works by numerous researchers on T- shaped deep mixing column including laboratory work, full-scale field tests, analytical and numerical analyses related to improvement of soft soil is reviewed in this paper. Results are discussed with the help of figures depicting charts, failure modes and it has been found that T- shaped deep mixing method provides an enhanced alternative to the existing methods of improving soft clay with regard to soil bearing capacity and settlement criterion.

EFFECT OF GEOTECHNICAL PARAMETERS IN DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF METRO TUNNEL BELOW THE RIVER GANGES IN KOLKATA, INDIA Biswanath Dewanjee, Chief Engineer, Kolkata Metro Rail Corporation Limited City- Kolkata, Country-India, [email protected]

ABSTRACT: The Ganges is one of the most prominent rivers in India and historically major cities like Kolkata are developed along the banks. There was a rapid upsurge in population in the Kolkata metropolitan area during the last 50 years and consequently it is necessary to develop a modern mass transportation facility in this region. Kolkata East-West Metro is a crucial mass transit corridor project connecting Kolkata and its twin city Howrah on other side of river. Twin bored tunnels were built below the river Ganges to connect the cities. The tunnel is 16m to 19m below the river bed. The 5.55 meter (m) internal diameter tunnels are constructed with concrete RCC segmental liners. The 520 m river crossing was accomplished using earth pressure balancing tunnel boring machines (TBM). This is the first transportation tunnel project in India under such a large and revered river. This ambitious initiative involved meticulous planning and investigation of the Ganga- Brahmaputra deltaic region juvenile alluvial sub-soil. This paper covers geotechnical investigation, hydrological data collection, selection criteria for alignment design, type of construction, and selection of the tunnel boring machine. Key Words: Kolkata, Geotechnical investigation, Tunneling, Underwater, Face Pressure Biswanath Dewanjee is the Chief Engineer [Civil] in Kolkata Metro Rail Corporation, Kolkata, India where he is the in-charge of planning, design and execution of underground east-west metro corridor.

ABSTRACT: Parallel seismic test and sonic pulse echo response test are effective non-destructive methods to determine the depth of an existing foundation. The paper presents a case where depth of well foundation installed for a bridge across a drain was questioned by the owner. While the contractor insisted that the well depth was 12.2 m below the well cap as per the drawings, the owner doubted it. The results conclusively proved that the well depth was about 11 m below the well cap. The tests provided a scientific basis for confirming the as-constructed depth of the foundation.

ABSTRACT Government of India has taken initiative to augment infrastructure in the country in an expeditious manner. Accordingly, they have planned major investments in roads, water supply, railways, MRTS systems, tunnels, ports etc. Almost 8% of our Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is utilized for new construction in infrastructure and other fields. While the investment is assured, and the projects are coming, the need of the hour is to accelerate the pace of construction. This has induced opportunities for introducing new technologies for fast track construction to reduce the cost and time of construction. In the geotechnical arena, we need to seriously look at newer technologies for faster construction of piles and their applications. In this paper, the utilization of Barrette Piles, Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) piles and Spun Concrete Piles have been discussed. Also, discussed is a special application of bored piles, namely Secant Piles which has gained popularity in recent times because of requirement of very deep excavations in thickly populated urban areas for construction of underground stations for MRTS systems.

ABSTRACT Concept of Bored Cast-in-Situ (BCIS) piling was introduced in India during early 1950s and since then are used widely. BCIS piles, despite being widely used today, require skilled supervision, and may not offer faster and quality guaranteed solution under certain sub-surface conditions. There is an urgent need to introduce latest piling technology to ensure higher productivity with high quality standards, addressing safety requirements during execution. Such foundation technology is expected to be an economical answer to accelerate country’s growing infrastructural needs. Realizing this technology gap, DFI of India along with DFI (USA) set ahead an ambitious technology initiative for introduction of Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) piles in India. Looking at the piling practices in USA and Europe, it is well accepted that CFA piles would take less time for installation compared to BCIS piles for a certain range of loads and sub-soil conditions; and therefore, would play a pivotal role to address India’s fast track piling requirements during its immediate future. This paper presents details of the plans and actions on the DFI of India’s CFA technology initiative which is expected to provide useful information on the philosophies of design and execution to be adopted, critical areas and considerations that are currently being addressed for its successful implementation. In fact, there are wide possibilities of CFA piles in assisting fast track projects and is expected to set up a positive ambience for gainful acceptance in India, which otherwise, had been viewed sceptically in the past.

PERFORMANCE OF LARGE-DIAMETER BORED PILE WITH SHORT SOCKETED LENGTH IN IGNEOUS ROCK IN THAILAND Zaw Zaw Aye, Seafco PCL, Bangkok, Thailand, +66859091029; [email protected] Thayanan Boonyarak, PhD, Seafco PCL, Bangkok, Thailand, +66805818799; [email protected] Sereyroath Chea, Seafco PCL, Bangkok, Thailand, +66935503967; [email protected] Nutthapon Thasnanipan, Seafco PCL, Bangkok, Thailand, +66846660555; [email protected] ABSTRACT Large-diameter bored piles have been utilized extensively in soft soil for more than four decades in Thailand, whereas there are only limited numbers of rock-socketed bored pile constructed. To date, load transfer and settlement behavior of piling in rock in Thailand is still not fully understood, especially when the socketedlength is less than one time the pile diameter. The objectives of this paper are to analyze load distribution and to investigate load-settlement relationship of bored pile in rock. Collected data in this study was from pile load test results of more than 90 large-diameter bored piles, socketed in igneous rock such as granite and andesite. Bored piles were constructed using rotary drilling method, having socketed length varying from 0.3 to more than 3 times the pile diameter. Factors that influenced pile settlement behavior, consisting of socketed length and construction method were analyzed. The effects of socketed length on loadsettlement relationship and ultimate load bearing capacity were investigated. Load-settlement behavior, unit shaft resistance and unit end bearing are presented and discussed. Also, guidelines of estimation of pile settlement in rock is proposed. According to measured and calculated data, settlement of pile was mainly due to elastic shortening. This is because shaft friction in granite was the major component for pile resistance. For piles with socketed length per diameter ratio (S/D) of greater equal one, the mobilized shaft friction and end bearing are significantly larger than those with S/D of less than one. This is because socketed length is sufficient in rock to provide fully mobilized end bearing, resulting in relatively large stiffness at pile base.

ABSTRACT There is a rapid expansion of world’s infrastructure and simultaneously existing infrastructure is aging. The maintenance of infrastructures has been of concern to the engineering community. Monitoring and evaluating the structures have become more significant than ever. Ground anchor is an important part of the structure where it is installed. Unfortunately, there are limited testing methods available to assess the force in the pre-stressing steel. High cost, complicated equipment and limitation of space often prevent these methods from being implemented. DYNA Force sensors have been developed to measure the force in the pre-stressing steel during construction and at any time during the lifetime of the structure. These sensors make use of the magneto-elastic properties of ferrous materials. A readout unit is designed to magnetically energize the steel through the sensor and measure the response of the steel to the process. The readout unit then converts the response into a direct force reading. They can be used for bare, epoxy coated, galvanized and greased-sheathed steel in the bonded, un-bonded, grouted or un-grouted length of the tendon. It measures the force of the steel element at the location where it is installed and can be recorded manually, automatically, or remotely. The sensor is robust, requires no maintenance and it is expected to have a similar service life to that of the surrounding structure. Sensors have received attention in terms of accuracy, performance, ease in installation, durability, and cost effectiveness. This paper describes its application in tie-back and tiedown anchors and force monitoring of retaining walls, bridge abutment and concrete dams where the data were collected manually, automated and remotely.

ABSTRACT Micropiles are not new, but they are not well known. They have been used already for a very long period as foundation elements – driven piles more than a thousand years – and several European cities are built on thousands of piles. Micropiles in the present meaning are defined in the European Standard EN 14199 as either bored piles with a diameter not exceeding 300 mm or displacement piles with a diameter not exceeding 150 mm. Bored piles can be done with or without casing depending on soil conditions. Micropiles as mentioned above were used in the middle of the past century as so called “pali radiavikci” in Italy, and then later in Germany and the whole of Europe. In the paper the exact definition, and differences in design principles between Europe and other parts of the world will be covered as well as design and execution rules. Examples of the design and erection process show how micropiles can be used not only as foundation elements, but also for slope stabilization projects, soil reinforcement, or solving anchoring problems.

RECOGNIZED CORROSION PROTECTION METHODS FOR PERMANENT GROUND ANCHORS Chris Irvin, Dywidag-Systems International Ltd., Warwickshire, UK Devon Mothersille, Geoserve Global Ltd., London, UK Rajiv Pandey, DSI Bridgecon, Delhi, India ABSTRACT Ground anchors are widely used in civil engineering for retaining wall tieback and uplift restraint in deep basements as well as a range of other applications where traditional construction methods are either unsuitable or uneconomic. The ability to provide active restraint using a stressed tendon offers significant benefits in reducing the size and weight of the structure. Recent projects in India include the Sivok-Rangpo Tunnel and the Middle Bhotekoshi Hydro-Electric Project in Nepal, utilized permanent anchors with double corrosion protection to fulfill the required lifespans of the structures. For permanent ground anchors with lifespans up to 120 years, durability in the form of corrosion protection is critical, as failure through insufficient corrosion protection is unacceptable. Applying the correct corrosion protection is one of the most misunderstood principles in ground anchoring practice. This paper seeks to highlight the pitfalls of incorrect corrosion protection methods, as well as outlining and updating recognized corrosion protection principles in accordance with internationally recognized ground anchor standards.

ENGINEERING ASPECTS OF JET GROUTING AND ITS APPLICATIONS FOR SEEPAGE CONTROL Akhila Manne, Sr. Geotechnical Engineer, Keller India, [email protected] PVSR Prasad, Geotechnical Manager, Keller India, [email protected] Madan Kumar Annam, Head of Engineering, Keller India, [email protected] ABSTRACT Jet grouting technique is applied for modifying the existing ground or to construct load bearing member or a barrier without prior excavation. The jet grouting process employs hydraulicinduced mixing of cement slurry with the native soil and is commonly used for providing seepage control, limiting subsidence over tunnel excavation sites, and underpinning existing structures threatened by subsidence etc. In specific to seepage control, the structural barriers resulting due to jet grouting in the in-situ soil help increase the imperviousness of the in-situ soil and acts as a barrier to water flow. Achieving the required diameter, strength, permeability etc. of the jet grout barrier depends on jet grouting parameters such as grout pressure, lifting speed, number and diameter of nozzles and grout mix. In addition to the operating parameters, column geometry, depth of treatment, effective quality control plan plays important role in achieving a reliable seepage control barrier. This paper discusses the engineering aspects of jet grouting in specific to address seepage control application of in-situ soil. The technological process, construction parameters and construction method for formation of impervious wall for seepage control are discussed in detail along with case history of one of the multipurpose irrigation projects in India.

ABSTRACT Earthquakes are one of the most disastrous natural events. It remains an area of research to predict the earthquakes, but always there is room for learnings from the earthquakes. One such risk is the liquefaction potential of soils in loose sand deposits with shallow ground water table. Addressing liquefaction mitigation in foundation design is one of the greatest challenges for practicing foundation engineer. The mitigation of liquefaction potential could be achieved by several methods predominantly with vibro compaction or dynamic compaction and vibro stone columns etc. The work in this study highlights the liquefaction evaluation procedure and its mitigation using vibro compaction. Soil investigation works using eCPTs were conducted before the start of the works to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of soil in terms of liquefaction potential. Field trials were conducted at site to arrive at optimum design of vibro compaction. High quality control using computerized output was monitored to achieve the required compaction of the soil. The amount of backfill required resulting from subsidence of surface was recorded to ensure the effectiveness of vibro compaction work. After ground improvement, soil investigation works were conducted to assess efficacy of vibro compaction. Subsequently, full size plate load tests were conducted to check the improved load settlement characteristics of improved ground. Based on the findings of this study, vibro compaction proved as an effective ground improvement technique to mitigate the liquefaction potential of soil, especially in loose sandy deposits.

NEGATIVE SKIN FRICTION ON A PILE – EFFECT OF DRAINAGE CONDITION Prince Kumar1 and Satyanarayana M. Dasaka2 1 Postgraduate Student, Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai; e-mail: [email protected] 2 Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai; e-mail: [email protected]

ABSTRACT Negative skin friction (NSF) is a common problem in the design of pile, where soft soil presents. The soft soil applies drag on the pile when soil settlement is more than the pile. The NSF is a very complex problem because it depends on several factors. In this paper, finite element method (FEM) is used to simulate and analyse the pile-soil interaction problem of negative skin friction. For the analyses, modified cam-clay (MCC) model, Mohr-Coulomb (MC) model, Hoek-Brown model, and linear elastic model are used for soft clays, sand, rock, and pile, respectively. The model is validated with a known case history. The development of dragload, downdrag, and the location of the neutral plane (NP) are investigated and they match well with field data. Detailed parametric studies on the effect of drainage condition on the location of NP and development of dragload are conducted in this study. From this parametric study, it is observed that the depth of NP is different for one-way and two-way drainage conditions during the consolidation process, but it is same at the end of the consolidation for both drainage conditions. The surcharge load does not have any influence on depth of NP, but dragload increases with surcharge load.

SCOUR EFFECTS ON LATERALLY LOADED PILES IN SAND AND POTENTIAL REMEDIAL MEASUREMENTS Ammar A. Mohammed, Sultan Qaboos University, Oman, [email protected] Yahia E-A. Mohamedzein, Sultan Qaboos University, Oman, [email protected] Phone 0096824142577

ABSTRACT The effect of scour on laterally loaded piles installed in sand is investigated using laboratory model tests. The model test was performed in a large tank. The influence of different scour depths and the use of riprap as a potential remedial measure, were studied. The scour depth was varied from 1D to 3D (where D is the pile diameter). A substantial reduction in ultimate lateral capacity of the pile due to scour is observed. The percentage decrease of the lateral load capacity (PDC) reaches almost 20% when the scour depth increases from 0 to 3 D. The countermeasure used in this study (i.e. riprap) has a significant influence on the lateral load resistance for the scoured piles. The riprap improves the ultimate lateral resistance of the pile for the 3D scour case from 52 to 116 N.

ABSTRACT: A 420 m x 40 m Berth and 13hectare (Ha) Container stacking yard is founded on 1400 mm φ bored cast-in-situ reinforced concrete piles. These piles were installed through the overburden material into the underlying rock in the onshore/offshore areas. As a part of work, two initial Pile Load tests with working load of 980 MT were carried out and tested to a load of 2450 MT. A total of 675 piles are in scope of work out of which 292 numbers are constructed as Marine piles using Jack-up Platform and 383 numbers of Land based piling by filling the backyard area by locally available sand. Out of two Pile Load Test one was Land based Pile Load Test and other was Marine Simulated Pile Load Test. There were apprehensions about quality of very weak to weak siltstone rock samples obtained during the boring of Piles which eventually resulted in increase of pile length for few initial piles. Solution to this problem by conducting unconventional investigation and optimization of pile length is described briefly in this paper. Keywords: siltstone, marine simulated pile load test, core barrel, UCS tests.

ABSTRACT Open caissons are deep foundations sunk into the ground by removal of soil within the caisson shaft. A cutting edge with a tapered inner face is used at the bottom of the caisson to allow the bearing failure of the soil which is in contact with the cutting edge. The soil is removed within the shaft of the caisson during sinking which results in bearing failure of the soil due to self-weight of the caisson. The formation of influence zone in the soil at the cutting edge is termed as failure zone. In this study, the finite element (FE) analysis is carried out to evaluate the extent of failure zone in the c-φ soil at the cutting edge of the open caisson. The cutting edge is penetrated the soil and the extent of the failure zone is evaluated. The effect of variation of tapered angles of the cutting edge, the radii ratio of the open caisson, unit weight, friction angle and cohesion of the soil, and magnitude of the surcharge on the extent of the failure zone is investigated. From the FE results, the multivariate linear and nonlinear regression analyses are performed and easy to use predictive equations are developed to estimate the extent of failure zone in the soil beneath the cutting edge. These equations help in quick estimation of the extent of failure zone based on the configuration of the open caisson adopted at the construction site.

Ltd., Noida, U.P., India, Mb. +91 9811175255, E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: In this paper, an attempt is made to highlight the shortcomings of the current provisions of the code on Foundation and Substructure published by Indian Roads Congress (i,e. IRC:78-2014) [6]. Possible solution is also suggested. Inconsistencies between this code and other published codes of IRC brought out. Some of the contentious provisions in the code, which quite often creates confusion to structural and geotechnical engineers in the design of bridge foundations are also highlighted. Indian Roads Congress (IRC) is working for more than 15 years now to harmonize the IRC codes pertaining to highway bridge design to limit state philosophy. Significant progress has already been made in this regard. Codes on concrete, steel as well as composite structures have been revised with limit state philosophy. The code on Foundation and Substructure (IRC:78-2014) is however still outdated in many respects, including the fact that it is maintaining the working stress philosophy of design and yet to fall in line with the rest of the suite of codes.

ABSTRACT The use of contiguous pile walls for deep excavation supporting system has become common in geotechnical engineering practice around the world. The implementation of contiguous piles (piles with a gap between them) for deep excavation support is most suitable for cohesive soil, where ground water table is located below the base of excavation. The Soil Arching plays an important role in stabilizing the soil in between the adjacent piles. The Mohr-Coulomb model is routinely used in the numerical analysis of deep excavations, due to its simplicity. Use of an advanced soil model may be prudent to capture realistic soil response during the excavation process. The Hardening Soil model is an effective and better model to simulate the real soil behavior in terms of stress dependency, non-linearity and inelasticity. The present study highlights salient advantages of Hardening Soil model over MohrCoulomb model in the numerical modelling of deep excavation supporting system using discrete piles with a gap between them.

ABSTRACT Constructions of foundation for heavy structure within confined spaces or on the areas which consist of problematic soil is a challenge. Pile foundation is one of the solutions for the mentioned problem but for heavy structures plain pile may be uneconomical. In the present study a new pile (Hydraulically Extrude Pile (HEP)) is proposed, which acts as a plain pile while driving operation and after reaching the desired depth, extrusions along its shaft are embedded in to the soil. These extrusions provide additional bearing resistance to the pile. Plain pile and HEP were tested at three different relative densities (30%, 45% and 60%). The ultimate loads corresponding to 6mm (5 % failure criterion) settlement were determined for both the piles at the above relative densities. The test results show that the HEP provided an increase in capacity of about 37% when compared with plain pile. As the relative density increases, the bearing capacity ratio of HEP and plain pile also increases.

ABSTRACT Many old structures like high rise buildings and bridges are unsafe and need to be strengthened in highly seismic prone zones. Strengthening of existing foundations of structures is difficult as it involves excavation, temporary support system below the foundation level, limited head room, risk of collapse of the structure during excavation. In such cases micropiles are the best solution for strengthening of vulnerable structures. Different investigations report different and contradictory group effects on micropiles subjected to vertical and lateral loading. This work is a model study to investigate the behaviour of micropile groups subjected to lateral load installed in loose sand (relative density 30%) and in dense sand (relative density 80%). The group behaviour is found to be a function of relative density of sand, length to diameter (L/D) ratio and spacing of the micropile groups. In loose sand ultimate lateral load carrying capacity of micropile groups as well as efficiency is highest in 2D spacing followed by 4D and 6D spacing. Positive group effect is seen at 2D spacing for 30% relative density and at 6D spacing for 80% relative density and by a few piles of higher L/D ratio at 4D spacing at 80% relative density. Rest of the piles show a negative group effect. Keywords: Micropiles, length to diameter ratio, spacing of piles, relative density of sand.

PERFORMANCE OF CONTIGUOUS BORED PILE WALL RETENTION SYSTEM: A CASE STUDY Vimala Chinnasamy, Sr. Geotechnical Engineer, Keller India, [email protected] Madan Kumar Annam, Head of Engineering, Keller India, [email protected] ABSTRACT Design of retention system for construction of basements needs technical expertise and wellplanned monitoring system to check probable deflections of the retaining structure including subsidence around the excavation pit. The construction of basements with proximity to adjacent structures and busy roads is the most challenging aspect for the practicing engineer. This demand understanding of the complexity of the problem, risk involved and assumptions on soil structure interaction. A simple 2-dimensional analysis using numerical modelling can normally be chosen to assess the exact behavior of the retention structure. Performance of a retention system for deep excavation of 11.5m for three basements having a perimeter of about 215m long, surrounded by high raised buildings is selected for study in this paper. Contiguous bored pile wall with single level inclined ground anchors was adopted as an optimistic temporary retention system in this project after allowing removal of 3.0m of surface soil. A well-planned monitoring program was carried out during excavation stages to study the performance of retention system.

SINGLE BORE MULTIPLE ANCHOR SYSTEMS (SBMAs) IN CHALLENGING AND VARIABLE GROUND CONDITIONS Antonio Marinucci, PhD MBA PE M.ASCE, V2C Strategists LLC and SBMA Ltd., Brooklyn, NY USA, Tel: +1 (401) 261-9102, E: [email protected] Devon Mothersille, BEng (Hons) PhD CEng FICE LETAPAEWE, Single Bore Multiple Anchor Ltd and Geoserve Global Ltd., London, UK, Tel: +44 (0) 7961 134943, E: [email protected] ABSTRACT Single bore multiple anchors (SMBAs) are ground anchors that incorporate multiple individual unit tendons of varying lengths, which are installed within a single borehole. Decades of research and practical applications have demonstrated that this configuration facilitates greater efficiency of load transfer to the surrounding ground. Unlike conventional ground anchors, especially in heterogeneous and variable ground conditions, the design of SBMAs can be optimized because the bond length of an individual unit anchor can be designed individually, thereby utilizing and maximizing the inherent strength of the ground. Historically, SBMAs have been used for both permanent and temporary earth support systems, and, where project circumstances dictated, SBMAs have been installed with removable tendons, which permitted the complete removal of the prestressing steel strand (at the end of the anchor’s design service life). The installation of SBMAs is congruent with that of traditional ground anchors, and the testing protocol is similar regardless of anchor type. However, unlike conventional ground anchors, the stressing of SBMAs can require a different set up, whereby separate hydraulic jacks are hydraulically synchronized to stress each individual tendon simultaneously so that each unit anchor receives the same load. This paper will provide a general overview of the design, installation, and testing of permanent, temporary, and removable SBMAs along with the applicability for their use and the benefits afforded from using this type of anchoring system. The paper will also present and discuss applications in different ground conditions and test results via mini case histories where SBMAs have been implemented worldwide. The use of specially developed tablet-based software that allows realtime analysis and data management of the anchor testing process will also be presented with reference to SBMAs. Finally, it will be shown that, depending on the ground conditions and project requirements, it is possible that SBMAs can double the capacity of conventional anchors, thereby generating substantial savings in program time and cost.

ALTERNATIVE PILING METHODS - CHANCES FOR TECHNICAL AND ECONOMICAL SOLUTIONS Franz-Werner Gerressen, BAUER Maschinen GmbH, Schrobenhausen, Germany, FranzWerner.Gerressen@ bauer.de

Manfred Schoepf, BAUER Maschinen GmbH, Schrobenhausen, Germany [email protected] ABSTRACT Everybody knows about piling using hydraulic drill rigs and using the so-called Kelly drill mode. Kelly drilling has a lot of advantages as it can work with a wide range of tools facing almost all types of soil and rock. It can also deal with diameters up to 3.000 mm and bigger or depth of +100 m. But there is a big concern about Kelly drilling as the installation process is relatively slow. Therefore, alternative Piling Methods like Continuous Flight Auger Piles (CFA), Cased Continuous Flight Auger Piles (CCFA) and Full Displacement Piles (FDP) provide a lot of chances in terms of installation performance and therefore cost, and even more important, time saving potentials. The paper will show where these systems may be an interesting alternative to the traditional Kelly Drilling. Of course, there are as well limitations in using these methods which should be known and considered. The paper will describe these methodologies, reference projects will allow showing the results in time and cost saving in using these methods, but it will also show the limitations for these methods.

ABSTRACT The alignment of the new rail line, which connects Khulna port and Mongla city, passes across the river Rupsha, which necessitates for a railway bridge near the existing road bridge. Pile foundation is designed as bored cast in-situ pile of diameter 1.5 m at the approach bridge and 2.5 m diameter at the main bridge portion. The prevailing geotechnical condition at the bridge location consists of strata of soft to medium silt/clay, poses great challenges in designing and execution of pile foundations. Pile load test, which was conducted on 1.5 m diameter pile of 40 m long pile, proved the inadequacy of the pile to achieve the required design capacity of 570 tons and it experienced huge settlement. Hence to meet the required capacity without increasing the length of pile substantially, basegrouting technique was implemented based on subsequent load tests on piles of various lengths with and without base-grout have been conducted. The test results on the base-grouted pile were satisfactory over non-grouted piles. This paper describes the experience gained in pile foundation with base grouting and the comparative study between base-grouted and non-grouted piles. Keywords: Pile foundation, base grouting

ABSTRACT Retaining walls are often used to support the unstable backfill soil. In certain circumstances, structures like high rise buildings, bridge and bridge abutments, transmission towers and offshore platforms are constructed adjacent to retaining walls. Pile foundations are generally used to support these types of structures. Retaining walls near these foundations may suddenly fails sometimes, and they can affect the stability and safety of nearby structures and foundations. In this study, experiments are done on small scale model piles to determine the settlement of pile foundations exposed to the movement of soil induced from the abrupt collapse of a retaining wall. Various factors affecting the behavior of single piles and pile groups are considered. Embedment ratio and critical height of collapsed retaining structure are the two most important factors affecting the settlement of piles. The settlement of piles increases with the increase in height of retaining wall collapsed. In piles of embedment ratio 10, the settlement increases with increase in the spacing, and increase in number of piles, while piles of embedment ratio 20 show behavior opposite to the piles of embedment ratio 10. In general, settlement of piles decreases about 20 to 50 % with the increase in embedment ratio of piles group. Piles group with small embedment ratio affected more severely due to abrupt collapse of retaining wall than the piles of large embedment ratio. The increase in the settlement with the increase in the height of collapsed retaining wall is relatively more noticeable as compared to increase in lateral displacement.

The present case study highlights a unique experience of socketed micro piles which are subjected to high traffic load and at the same time providing support to shallow excavations. The shallow excavations were required to construct structures like pipe and duct supports / trestles for new power plant inside steel plant premises. Most of the structures were coming in between vicinity of existing building foundation and adjacent plant main road. Open excavation with slope or elaborate excavation support system were not feasible due to space, time and cost constraints. Also, the depth of new foundations could not be reduced in the varying depth of heterogeneous fill material. The heterogeneous fill material comprised of mostly slag, fly ash, concrete debris, broken bricks, loose soils and boulders. The underlying highly weathered mica schist layer or virgin soil layer was most suited for placing the new foundation. Therefore, micro pile option was explored considering availability of small drilling equipment, readily available materials and resources. Steel pipe along with reinforcement rods with cement-sand grout were used for making the micro piles. Wagon driller was used to drill holes for 150mm diameter micro pile. These micro piles were socketed inside the weathered rock layer or grouted slag filled zones. Given the highly variable thickness of heterogeneous fill material above weathered mica schist rock, the lengths of the micro piles above the bond zone were varying significantly. Often these lengths also varied with the depth of highly weathered mica schist rock layer. The field experiences in these conditions are demonstrated with supported reverse design analysis to ascertain the desired safety against uncertainties.

KINEMATIC AND INERTIAL FORCES OF SINGLE PILE UNDER DYNAMIC LOADING USING NUMERICAL APPROACH Alireza Saeedi Azizkandi, Iran university of science and technology, Tehran, Iran, [email protected] Sara Hashemi, Iran university of science and technology, Tehran, Iran, [email protected] Ali Abolhasnpoor, Iran university of science and technology, Tehran, Iran, [email protected] ABSTRACT The importance of the structural piles has been determined on the seismic response of the site based on the analytical, numerical and laboratory studies. Due to the lack of laboratory or the numerical studies with the support of laboratory studies, the results are limited to the specific conditions, and problems with the simple geometry and elastic behaviors of the materials against the shear waves in frequency domain. Many studies have been done on the effect of kinematic and inertial interactions on the seismic responses of the soil-pile system by numerical methods. However, most numerical studies based on the results of the analytical methods, and the numerical studies have had less laboratory support. Therefore, this study investigates the effects of the kinematic and inertial interaction of the pilesoil on the dynamic response of a single pile, using physical modeling of a pile in the dry sandy soil with shaking table along with the numerical modeling verified by the laboratory results in ABAQUS FEM software simulation. Moreover, using the numerical models the effect of soil characteristics such as: the modulus of elasticity, how it is distributed in soil, pile capping etc. has been studied. It can be deduced that fix pile head with cap and soil specification, such as the modulus of elasticity, have a great impact on the distribution and the maximum amount of bending moment along the pile.

NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF THE SOIL-PILE-STRUCTURE INTERACTION ON STRUCTURE’S BASE SHEAR Alireza Saeedi Azizkandi, Iran university of science and technology, Tehran, Iran, [email protected] Esmaeel Hamrang Taqidizaj,Iran university of science and technology,Tehran, Iran, hamrang_esmaeel@ civileng.iust.ac.ir

Pedram Ghaderi, Iran university of science and technology, Tehran, Iran, [email protected] ABSTRACT For the calculation of the structure’s base shear value V= (A.B.I)/R×W, A indicates the design reference acceleration, showing (PGA) in each area, B is the soil reflection coefficient. The product of these two parameters is spectral acceleration (Sα = A.B) which in fact shows the effect of the soil type on the design reference acceleration magnitude. As it can be observed, there is no coefficient which can indicate the effects of the foundation and existence of piles as increasing or diminishing factor in the design reference acceleration magnitude. Therefore, we studied this subject by using numerical modeling in ABAQUS and seismic test validations. The results show that the existence of piles have a significant effect on the design reference acceleration magnitude. Hence, the effect of the number of piles and the input frequency on acceleration magnification was investigated in this paper.

[email protected] ABSTRACT Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation proposed to build Extra dozed bridge across Dhurgam Cheruvu Lake at Madhapur, Hyderabad. The main pylon foundation is at merge point of the downhill and lake. Temporary shore protection bund of 4m height proposed to retain the lake water for constructing the open foundation. HDPE sheet and sand bags were provided on bund to control the seepage. Submersible pumps used to dewater the excavated area. Base of foundation rests on hard rock which is 7m below existing ground level and 11m from top of temporary bund. Deep excavation designed by PLAXIS software with safe slope of 1H: 1V for top 6m soil along with bund and 1H: 3V for weathered rock of 5m depth till excavation level. But during excavation weathered rock encountered at greater depth, because of which slope angle of excavation increased and fouling with foundation. Bund was re-aligned during the process of excavation with many challenges. Steeper slope angles adopted with toe protection. Continuous seepage found along the slope during bund rectification. Paper highlights the difficulties faced during excavation due to change in soil strata and describes the challenges faced in slope protection using conventional methods for safe construction of foundation.

ABSTRACT A large container terminal is constructed at the port terminal in western coast of India by reclaiming the sea. The slope stability analyses have been performed for perimeter bund which is having a length of about 11km. The terminal is developed over marine clay and the maximum thickness of very soft to soft clay is around 24 m. The soft marine clay is susceptible to large settlements and slope failure during temporary & permanent condition. The ground improvement by prefabricated vertical drains (PVD) and preload is adopted to mitigate the aforesaid issues. In addition to the above, high tensile woven geotextile is also used at the perimeter bund to ensure adequate factor of safety against slip failure. This paper examines two failures of embankment slopes. The geotechnical investigation has been carried out at the collapsed region and itis observed that soil strength is inadequate to support the self-weight of the embankment along with preloaded surcharge.

In the present case foundation for a heavily loaded storage silo support structure was required to be designed at a site with numerous closely located existing services. The required foundation plan area was under adjacent existing road which was planned to be temporarily diverted. However, at time of execution temporary shutdown of part of the road was not allowed by plant operation. Also, during excavation presence of an underground water pipe was revealed and this pipe could not be diverted or temporarily rerouted since it was vital for operation of existing plant. The foundation layout had to be modified to avoid disruption to these facilities but because of the critical loading conditions from superstructure, reduction in foundation area was resulting in loss of required stability of the foundation. Since the governing condition for inadequate stability was found to be overturning effect from moment under seismic conditions, alternative design for the foundation within available footprint space was carried out by providing rock anchors. The anchors were provided along the periphery of the foundation to maximize the stabilizing effect. This paper presents the case study on the evaluation of the layout and construction restrictions on the designed foundation, planning and design of the alternative solution to suit site conditions and provide the required factor of safety for stability of the foundation, design of the anchors and installation procedure, load testing of anchors and finally constructing the foundation within the limitations. The implemented solution achieved the desired safety of the foundation while maintaining all facilities in the operating plant unhindered.

Tech. Student, Geotechnical Engg., Dept. of Civil Engineering, National Institute of Technology Jamshedpur, Jharkhand (India), Mob. No.: 7007156080, E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Pile is expensive but often necessary for building of large structures, bridges and high rise buildings, etc. therefore it becomes necessary to find the best pile foundation design in terms of performance and economy. In the field, during construction of pile foundation, at some particular location, length of pile is limited to certain depth then by varying parameters like increasing shaft diameter, two piles of smaller diameter, increasing bulb diameter, increasing number of bulbs will give an economical solution for same load. The optimized pile-group design corresponds to the most costefficient foundation solution attempting a compromise between the number of piles, their diameter and length as well as the distance between them. That’s helps in achieving the most economical design of the pile. Over the past decades, many optimization algorithms have been developed for various engineering problems, but very few attempts, however, have been made in developing an effective optimization methodology for foundation design. In this study, two different design code procedures have been considered in order to assess the performance of the designs obtained during the optimization process, namely IS: 2911 (Part I) and IS: 2911 (Part III). In this work, length of pile is reduced keeping constant load on pile coming from super structure by varying the parameters of pile, volume of earthwork and concrete has been calculated. It has been observed that even after reducing the length of pile (12 m to 9 m), for slightly higher shaft diameter (400 mm to 426 mm), pile foundation is economical.

ABSTRACT A simplified framework has been developed for quantification of critical axial load on mono pile subjected to liquefaction-induced instability. Several case studies are reported in the literature, where severe damage has been observed in pile foundations due to liquefaction even though designed with a good factor of safety. Consideration of incorrect failure mechanism in the design of pile foundation is the probable reason for these failures. Previous studies idealize pile as a column and a buckling mode of failure is considered as the failure mechanism. Scenarios like the liquefaction-induced lateral spreading of soil results in large lateral loads on the pile and in turn it may result into a different failure mode. This limitation is alleviated in the present study by a beam column idealization of the pile and its failure analysis is performed against combined buckling and flexural instabilities. A case study is presented to demonstrate the critical axial load on a given pile-soil system subjected to liquefaction-induced lateral spreading. Parameters like critical lateral spreading and critical failure axial load are studied intricately. Furthermore, the effect of lateral spreading on the critical axial load on the pile, in turn on the mode of failure is quantified. It was evident from the results that increase in lateral spreading will increase the susceptibility towards flexural failure. Key words: Mono pile, Liquefaction, Lateral spreading, Instability, and Displacement based modelling. P. Ravi Prakash is currently a project assistant at Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar.

ABSTRACT The design of Duo-pile foundation system for elevated railways and highways is very critical with respect to lateral deflection which can affect serviceability and the stability of superstructure. In duo-pile system, interaction between piles, i.e., pile-soil-pile interaction plays a major role in final response of the system. Four types of pile-soil-pile interaction take place in duo-pile system: 1) Edge effect due to lateral load in transverse direction; 2) Shadow effect due to lateral load in longitudinal direction; 3) Couple effect due to moment transfer in the longitudinal direction and 4) Interaction due to vertical load. Objective of this study is to arrive at the appropriate spring constants for pile such that incorporating these interactions into an equivalent one-dimensional (1-D) model will approximately simulate the target displacement from the associated three-dimensional (3-D) model. Firstly, 3-D models comprising of only two piles are explained. For each interaction, appropriate 1-D models are presented, and corresponding spring constant factors are proposed. Key words: Duo-pile, Pile-Soil-Pile Interactions, Spring Constant Factors, Couple Effect, Simplified 1-D Model. Kolli Mohan Krishna is presently a Ph.D scholar in Indian Institute of Gandhinagar. He completed his masters from same institute in Geotechnical Engineering under Professor Amit Prashant. Mohan is mostly involved in research zone.

ABSTRACT Helical piles are structural elements which are not only capable of resisting compressive and tensile loads, but which can also counterbalance the overturning moments. Current uses of helical piles range from shallow to deep foundation types. Present investigation has been carried out on use of helical multi plate piles as shallow foundation piles and their pullout resistance in dense sands. The pile models cylindrical multi plate helical pile (CMHP) and tapered multi plate helical piles (TMHP) were used to investigate the effect of varying plate geometry of TMHP from the CMHP on pullout load for different embedment depths. Both model piles TMHP and CMHP exhibited increased pullout load capacities with increasing embedment depths. It was observed that the TMHP show improvement in pullout capacity as compared to the CMHP only after a certain embedment depth was reached. For embedment ratio more than 2.5, TMHP shows marginal improvement over CMHP while for embedment ratio less than 2.5 CMHP shows better results than TMHP. Experimental results of pullout load capacity are in good agreement with theoretical model results given by Mitsch and Clemence. Keywords: Multi plate helical pile, Embedment ratio, Breakout factor

ABSTRACT In this study, Beam on Nonlinear Winkler Foundation (BNWF) approach has been used to assess the behaviour of pile embedded in homogeneous clay bed, under combined vertical and lateral load. Non-linearity of soil and P-Δ effect have been taken into account. The result shows that if P-Δ effect is considered, the effect of vertical load will reduce the lateral load carrying capacity and increases the pile head deflection by inducing additional moment at pile head. The effects of variation of soil cohesion, slenderness ratios (L/D) and pile stiffness factors (Ep/Es) have also been investigated in this study. With the increase in pile stiffness factor, pile head deflection increases whereas increase in L/D ratios and cohesion lead to decrease the depth of fixity and lateral displacement of pile, under a fixed lateral load. For lower L/D ratios (L/D < 20), pile behaves like a rigid pile; for L/D ≥ 30, pile behaviour changes from rigid to flexible. Keywords: Combined load, Winkler model, P- Δ effect, FEM, BNWF
