Abstract:
Micro piles are small diameter pile (less than 300mm). Micro piles are generally used when there are difficult ground conditions, such as natural or man-made obstructions, sensitive ground with adjacent structures, limited access/low headroom. Micro piles are small diameter drilled and grouted friction piles. Each pile includes steel elements that are bonded into the bearing soil or rock – usually with cement grout. The bearing stratum is logged during installation drilling to assure that bearing capacity is adequate. This chapter presents a summary of various parameters defining the computational models. The bearing capacity and spring constant values for different pile diameter and different length is studied in this paper. Also, lateral pressure is also checked on the pile. The software SAFE 2016 used for the analysis of model.
