The experimental procedures and results are presented for a one-tenth scale laboratory investigation of changes in achievable grouted zones through alterations in helical pier parameters. The parameters investigated were ...
Building rehabilitation is critical for numerous older urban areas, many of which have inadequate foundations to support new demands. Consequently, development of practical methods to strengthen existing foundations is ...

Rehabilitation of building structures is a critical need facing numerous older urban areas. Many of these structures are supported on pile groups, which do not have adequate load capacity to support the demands expected ...
Laboratory testing for foundation design offers advantages over field-testing, especially, where existing installations preclude easy accessibility. Advantages include a homogeneous soil, ability to place instrumentation ...
The grouted, helical pier system (GHPS) is proposed as an example of a capacity improvement option for existing pile foundation groups. This paper explores the relative relationships between these geotechnical elements ...
Construction related dewatering in urban areas often induces damage of existing structures. The following forensic investigation highlights the complexities of such a phenomenon. Somerset plantation, a national historic ...
