“…The soil specimens used in this research are designated as C 0 (intact soil) and C 1 , C 2 , C 3 , and C 4 are the contaminated soil samples with 10, 20, 40 and 100 % of industrial wastewater respectively. The pile used in this work of L/D ≥ 20 is classified as long and flexible and free-head piles [15]. Also, two ratios of eccentricity to length (e/L = 0.25 and 0.5) have been studied.…”

The present study devoted to determine the ultimate lateral carrying capacity of piles foundation in contaminated clayey soils and subjected to lateral cyclical loading. Two methods have been used to calculate the lateral carrying capacity of piles foundation; the first one is two-line slopes intersection method (TLSI) and the second method is a modified model of soil degradation. The model proposed by Heerama and then developed by Smith has been modified to take into consideration the effects of heavy loads and soil contamination. The ultimate lateral carrying capacity of single pile and piles group (2×2) driven into samples of contaminated clayey soils have been calculated by using the two methods. Clayey soil samples are contaminated with four percentages of industrial wastewater (10, 20, 40 and 100) % of the distilled water used in the soaking process, the soaking procedure of soil samples have been proceeded for 30 days. Also, two ratios of eccentricity to embedded length (e/L = 0.25 and 0.5) have been examined. The results obtained from two analytical methods are well agreed with those obtained experimentally. The ultimate lateral carrying capacity, Pu (analytical) /Pu (experimentally) ranged from (75-8) % and (77-80) % of single pile with e/L = 0.25 and 0.5 respectively. In the piles group the ratio ranged (67-80) % and (71-79) % for e/L = 0.25 and 0.5 respectively.

Abstract. The aim of this preliminary research is to study the precision of pile foundation position compared to its original designed location. Before the installation of steel pipe piles for this project, the subcontractor found that the present vessel and equipment could not fully satisfy the plan twist angle and inclination requirements as shown on the detailed design drawings. Adjustment to the twist angle was needed for individual piles in some pier locations. In connection to the pile positions after the adjustment, this research has compared the pile forced loads with that of the original layout, and found that the structural impact is very insignificant due to the change in twist angle. It is confirmed that the revised pile group layout is acceptable. The relevant detail design is still applicable and amendment is unnecessary. The recommendation of this research could be adopted for the similar huge marine structures which installed large diameter steel pipe piles.
