    Splice and jetting in precast piles

    Someone knows if there is a splice type in precast concrete piles that, at same time, allows the use of jetting water in order to facilitate the installation? I am talking about 60 cm (24”) square piles and 40 m length. Thankyou

    EPOXIC PAINT IN CONCRETE PIPES

    Any colleague has some reference about the reduction of friction or adherence between soil and concrete pipe when using an epoxic paint. The referred pipe is 2 m diameter and it belongs to a drainage project for what will be installed horizontally using hydraulic jacks. The intention of painting...

    Dense/weak layers

    Dear Colleagues: I have a dense sand layer (N>50 blows) with a thickness from 2.5 to 4 m, underlain by a weak sand (N 10 to 20 blows). In the case of using a piled foundation, Meyerhof (1976) recommends to reduce the pile tip resistance of the hard stratum according to a proportional relation...

    DREDGED IN VERY STIFF TO HARD CLAY

    Dear colleagues, do you believe that a saturated clay stratum with a consistency among stiff to very stiff even hard in some points, and I mean where N oscillates between 15 and 30 blows and some points up to 35 blows, could be dredged combining the suction and a disintegration jet? Or one...

    DRIVING PILES THROUGH AN EARTHFILL?

    I wonder if somebody has experience in driving concrete piles through an earthfill structure formed by particles between 2 and 10”. The piles would support a wharf and the earthfill structure would support the filler in the back of the wharf. The eartfill structure would have a thickness from...
