This paper proposes a novel form of gravity foundation for long-span suspension bridges.
The foundation combines a caisson with bored piles and thereafter is termed a caisson …

A 3× 3 bored pile group consisting of nine cast-in-drilled-hole reinforced concrete shafts and
a comparable single-shaft were subjected to reversed cyclic, lateral head loading to …

Seismic performance of bridge structures supported by extended pile-shafts principally
depends on the curvature demand in critical regions of the pile below ground level. The …

This study develops the probabilistic seismic response and capacity models for the broad
collection of standard pile designs that are routinely incorporated into bridges in California …

Offshore piles are used as foundations for various marine structures such as quay walls,
dolphins, and offshore platforms. Offshore piles are primarily subjected to lateral loads from …

The results of three full-scale lateral load tests of cast-in-drilled-hole RC piles are evaluated
to provide insights into the soil-pile interaction behavior as represented by py curves (p= soil …

A novel anchorage for long-span suspension bridges, called pile-caisson composite
structures, was recently proposed by the authors in an attempt to reduce the construction …

This paper presents the results of in-situ testing of two integrated pile-columns of a partially
demolished bridge located in Auckland, New Zealand. A series of tests involving lateral …

An innovative pile-head macro-element model, recently proposed for the simulation of
inertial soil-structure interaction effects in the seismic analysis of structures supported on …

The response of piled bridge foundations to liquefaction-induced lateral soil deformation is
an important design consideration in seismically active regions. Recent research and case …
