Hello everyone,
we are doing the reclamation in one of our projects with an area of 400m x 50m from -2m to +1m. Also, we are treating the reclamation ground with PVD to decrease the future settlement with proloading fill and the height of the fill is 5m above +1.0m to achieve the future...

Hello,
I am doing the piling work using chisel and bailor method with rigid gantry platform. The gantry has two pile grid with 7.5m length and 15m width. The gantry has 2 A-frame to do chisel the pile simultaneously (Photo is attached for reference). My client has given the NCR to stop the...
Dear all,

Hi,
We are doing a Lateral pile load test on land pile of dia 1.4m for a marine stimulated condition by considering the dredge level 14.5 m by providing the outer casing dai 1.6m upto the above dredge level.
Design load is 10 T and Test load is 20T.
We are going to fix two dial gauges, one at...
Hi,
We are performing insitu pile drilling using winch machine (chisel weight is 3.5ton) in weathered rock strata. Is there any correlation/reference to find out rock strength vs number of chisel blow counts.
Thank you.

Hello,
What is the maximum deflection criteria can be allowed as per standard for marine pile lateral load test??
Please share the reference.

Hi,
Can anyone share the sample calculation for Lateral load test on Marine pile?
Generally for land pile we use to calculate 50% of the final load at which the total displacement increases to 12 mm or Final load at which the total displacement corresponds to 5 mm.

Hi,
I'm working on pile capacity calculations over on carbonate soil for Container berth terminal construction. We are going to construct 580m length and 56m width berth. Berth have 6 grids with an equal width spacing of 11.5m expect the first grid. Pile diameter is 1.4m.
Each grids line hols...
Hi,
I just want to know that "whether it is possible to calculate the safe bearing capacity from Modulus of subgrade in Plate load test?".
I have performed the plate load test, where i have concluded that the Ks value = 80 Mn/m2/m. Is there any empirical formula or correlation to calculate...
