The dynamic behaviour of pile foundations under seismic loads has become a pivotal research focus in civil engineering, particularly in regions prone to earthquakes. Recent investigations have ...

Pile foundations support vital structures in regions prone to seismic activity, yet their performance in liquefiable soils remains complex and critical for safe design. Seismic shaking can induce ...

OCEAN CITY — The most important element in a home at the shore is the most overlooked: The piles upon which the structure is placed. “I know spending money on stuff under ground is not attractive,” ...

Below-grade waterproofing systems can be critical features of building enclosure design, particularly when the structure has a deep foundation. As the foundation goes deeper, there is a greater ...

A new thesis shows that wooden pile foundations show visible damage after only a year if the groundwater level lowers. This can cause settlements of buildings in a matter of a few years. As early as ...
