  2. Vibro stone column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibro_stone_column

    This method of ground improvement is also called vibro replacement. Such techniques increase the load bearing capacity and drainage of the soil while reducing settlement and liquefaction potential. Stone columns are made across the area to be improved in a triangular or rectangular grid pattern.

  3. Deep foundation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_foundation

    In cases such as these, a displacement pile (like Olivier piles) may provide the cost efficiency of an augercast pile and minimal environmental impact. In ground containing obstructions or cobbles and boulders, augercast piles are less suitable as refusal above the design pile tip elevation may be encountered.

  4. Olivier pile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivier_pile

    During the screwback process, the soil is displaced again. This system is called 'double soil displacement'. While screwing back, concrete is poured into the casing. Because of the weight of the concrete, the concrete is injected into the space under the auger head. During the screwing back, the Olivier Pile is formed with the screw-shaped shaft.

  5. Franki piling system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franki_Piling_System

    Franki piles can be used as high-capacity deep foundation elements without the necessity of excavation or dewatering. [4] They are useful in conditions where a sufficient bearing soil can only be reached deeper in the ground, [5] [6] and are best suited to granular soil where bearing is primarily achieved from the densification of the soil around the base. [4]

  6. Continuous flight augering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_flight_augering

    Once initial piles are set with concrete, other shafts are augured between them, slicing into the original piles, with the new ones receiving rebar. The finished result is a continuous wall of reinforced concrete that aids and protects workers during excavation. [citation needed]

  8. Soil-structure interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil-structure_interaction

    Earthquake ground motion causes soil displacement known as free-field motion. However, the foundation embedded into the soil will not follow the free field motion. This inability of the foundation to match the free field motion causes the kinematic interaction. On the other hand, the mass of the superstructure transmits the inertial force to ...
