The capacities and behavior of a cost-in-place reinforced concrete pile is largely determined by the way it is installed. The design of the pile foundation for Taipei 101 was based on a series of full scale pile trial installation and a series of comprehensive instrumented pile load tests ...
Taipei 101(台北101 in Chinese) has a distinct, post-modern architectural style that looks almost like stacked, nested boxes, and is a landmark for theXinyi Districtin Taipei. Construction started on Taipei 101 in 1999, was completed in 2004, and was designed by the architect firm of C.Y....
