Abstract
In Belarussian geotechnical practice, there are often problems in the design, installation and testing of piles. These problems arise from incorrect knowledge of how piles interact with different soils. In this article, the authors propose solutions to such problems for improving the efficiency of pile foundations. The practical experience accumulated in the Republic of Belarus can also be useful for Iran and Iraq, where similar ground conditions occur during construction.
Highlights
Piles are the oldest types of foundations that primitive man drove into the bottom of reservoirs while building dwellings on water
Pile foundations are used in construction and reconstruction carried out in difficult geological conditions, and are used in the construction of multi-story buildings as well
It is important to know how different piles interact with different soils
Summary
Piles are the oldest types of foundations that primitive man drove into the bottom of reservoirs while building dwellings on water. The technology of vibro hammers for inserting piles includes penetration equipment borehole that helps to drive steel casing pipes in the form of a conical or pipe with a special bottom plate, driving the reinforcement cage into it, filling the interior with concrete mixture (Fig. 10), and pulling upward the casing at the same time using a vibrator for compacting concrete mixture and for and high quality formation of pile shaft in the hole (Fig. 11).
