1. Footing with Settlement-Reducing Piles in Non-Cohesive Soil
Abstract : Although the design concept based on the idea of limiting the settlement of footings by settlement-reducing piles is gaining more and more support, there have been very few experimental studies of the behaviour of piled footings in non-cohesive soil. The influences of the contact between the pile cap and the soil on the capacity and the load-settlement behaviour of a piled footing are considerable but this has not been well understood. READ MORE

2. ONSHORE WINDMILL FOUNDATIONS - Evaluation of new proposals
Abstract : Windmill structures must withstand very high horizontal loading giving an extremely large overturning moment on the foundation. These structures have very low stability loads in comparison to the overturning loads. READ MORE

4. Industrial Fibre Concrete Floors : Experiences and Tests on Pile-Supported Slab
Abstract : Pile supported floor slabs have often been designed solely in ultimate limit state ULS and then foremost with uniformly distributed loadings UDL. The investigation of serviceability limit state SLS has been of simpler nature, even according to the governing codes of practice. READ MORE
