weak rockhard claysThere is currently limited guidance regarding the design of large diameter driven piles in weak rock and/or very hard clays. The onshore industry tends to use drilled and grouted piles, thereby removing the potential risks associated with the pile capacity and installability of...

The last giant impact on Earth is thought to have formed the Moon1. The timing of this event can be determined by dating the different rocks assumed to have crystallized from the lunar magma ocean (LMO). This has led to a wide range of estimates for the age of the Moon between 4.35 a...
This study investigates image-data-driven deep learning in the stability analysis of geosystems. For the purpose, the recent breakthrough in computer vision represented by the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which was later used as a core technique in developing Google’s AlphaGo, was studied ...
The onshore industry tends to use drilled and grouted piles, thereby removing thepotential risks associated with the pile capacity and installability of driven piles in weak rock. However, theoffshore industry still prefers to use driven piles due to the time, cost and complexity of large ...
A growing number of civil engineering projects are utilizing steel piles driven into rock where a significant portion of the pile capacity is derived from the shaft resistance. Despite the growing number of projects utilizing the technology, little to no guidance is offered in the literature as to...
Current European practice assumes ultimate shaft resistances that appear low in comparison with the Chalk's unconfined compression strength and CPT cone resistance ranges and can impact very significantly on project economics. Little guidance is available on pile driveability, set-up or lateral resistance...
