Determination of Reliable Stress and Strain Distributions Along Bored Piles

  • Published:
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

The present research aims to measure and analyze the most reliable stress and strain distributions transferred in bored piles embedded within multilayer site conditions. Extensive data are summarized to measure changes in the stresses and strains in a bored pile. The effect of weak geological zones on multilayer site conditions can significantly change the design criteria since most of the dominant factors change with depth.
