  1. 1. Timber pile-supported road embankment : Numerical and analytical analysis of field monitoring project E4 Råneå

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

    Author : Kent Nystedt; [2022]
    Keywords : Geosynthetic reinforcement; Geosynthetic reinforced pile supported embankment; Pile distance; Embankment height; Finite element method; Pile efficacy;

    Abstract : The previous E4 Råneå road embankment was prone to flooding. Risk of flooding in combination with settlements of the road due to the weak underlying sulphide soil was problematic. The Swedish Transportation Administration improved the length section E4 Råneå by rebuilding the road using the method light embankment piling. READ MORE

  3. 2. Pile subjected to lateral load : Analytical hand calculation implemented by programming

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Anders Nordlöf; Danny Holmboe; [2021]
    Keywords : Commission on Pile Research; report 101; pile foundation; transversely loaded piles; interaction pile soil; Mathcad; hand calculation method; Pålkommissionen; rapport 101; pålgrundläggning; transversalbelastade pålar; interaktion påle-jord; Mathcad; handberäkningsmetod;

    Abstract : The official recommendations in geotechnical engineering are according to Swedish practice to install inclined driven piles in order to resist external horizontal loads, which usually consist of windloads. These loads gets counteracted by utilizing the pile's axial load-bearing capacity, however when designing a foundation the use of inclined piles has proven to be problematic from a number of different perspectives.

  4. 3. Numerical analysis of vibrations due to impact pile driving

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Sebastian Andersson Olivecrona; Rasmus Sulander; [2016]
    Keywords : Finite element method; Concrete pile; Impact pile driving; Ground vibrations; Soil mechanics; Soil dynamics; COMSOL Multiphysics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Vibrations originating from constructional work can affect the nearby soil and structures. Depending on the properties of the vibrations, these can result in settlements in the soil and damages to existing structures. Along with blasting, impact pile driving is one of the greatest sources of vibrations on a construction site. READ MORE

  5. 4. Pile foundation, calculation method and design tables according to Eurocode

    University essay from Medie- och Informationsteknik; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Kristoffer Ivarsson; [2013]
    Keywords : Pålfundament; Konsolmodellen;

    Abstract : Because of the transition to a common standard for building regulations in Europe called Eurocodes, there is a need to update old reports that was written when old national standards were in use. A pile foundation is needed if the ground beneath a building does not have enough loadbearing capacity. READ MORE
