Pile foundations are likely to experience liquefaction and its effects on such foundation are in several forms or ways. Effects of liquefaction on pile foundati

The effective stress principle in soil engineering is one of the important theories put forward by Karl Terzaghi in the year 1936. It is the difference between

Different types of earth retaining systems can be employed to conduct deep excavation procedure in construction. The selection of earth retaining system depends

Dynamic probe test is done to determine the penetration resistance of soil. Apparatus required for dynamic probe test of soil are:
(a) Dynamic Probe: The anvils

Dynamic compaction is an efficient and cost-effective
soil improvement technique that uses the dynamic effect of high energy impacts
to densify weak soil. The d

Dry Density of Soil by Core Cutter Method
Cylindrical core cutters of 130mm long and 100mm diameter are used for testing the in-situ compaction of cohesive and

Driven precast concrete piles are constructed by hammering the piles into the soil to a depth greater than 40m by an adjustable hydraulic or diesel hammer. Driv

Driven cast in-situ concrete piles are constructed by driving a closed-ended hollow steel or concrete casing into the ground and then filling it with concrete.

A drilled pier is a deep foundation system that uses a large diameter concrete cylinder constructed by placing fresh concrete and reinforcing steel into a drill

Soil stabilization is the method of improving soil properties by adding suitable stabilizers to it. It is very important to achieve the required strength for th
