Basic Design Philosophy for Deep Foundations for Liquefaction Mitigation

Analysis Considerations for Conventional Piles in Liquefying Soils (I) 1- Foundation stiffness (rotational & lateral) 2- Moment Capacity of pile group 3- Lateral capacity of foundation system 4- The above considerations lead to large diameter piles, high strength, and large deeply embedded pile caps.

Analysis Considerations for Conventional Piles in Liquefying Soils (II) Ground motion amplification Bending Moment Resistance (near stiff layers) Cap / pile connection Flowing soil characteristics between and around the piles Ductility of pile material Flexibility of the superstructure and force phasing

Basic Behavior of Micropile Systems Case I - Micropile Group as Direct Structural Support

Basic Behavior of Micropile Systems Case II - Micropile Network - Circumscribe and Internally Reinforce a Coherent Composite Reinforced Soil Structure

Overview Dynamic Behavior of Micropile Systems in Dry Sand (Omar BenSliman, 1998) Dynamic Behavior of Micropile Systems in Liquefying Soils (Sherif Hanna, 2002?)

FOREVER - Centrifuge Test Results Dry Sand Objectives Development of Experimental database for seismic retrofitting assessment Parametric evaluation of the effect of the main system parameters on the structure response, such as pile diameter, pile inclination, and group and network effects Evaluation of Existing Analysis Codes

FOREVER - Centrifuge Test Results Main Parameters Natural Frequency of Soil / Micropile Systems Soil - Pile Interaction (Dynamic p-y curves) Axial Load transfer Analytical Simulations - pseudo-static (LPILE & GROUP codes)

Typical Micropile Configuration Tested in the Centrifuge

Seismic Behavior of Micropile Systems Parametric effect of pile inclination (a ) on recorded pile bending profile (0.5 FL ; a/g = 0.3 ; s/D = 3 )

Seismic Behavior of Micropile Systems Parametric effect of pile inclination (a ) on recorded pile displacement profile (0.5 FL ; a/g = 0.3 ; D = 0.13 m)

Seismic Behavior of Micropile Systems GROUP PROGRAM (Reese et al., 1994) 1- Static analysis of symmetrical Pile Groups including batter piles 2- Soil-Pile-Interaction is modeled using t-z and p-y approach (Winkler model) 3- Group effect under lateral loading is modeled using p-y multipliers. 4- GROUP program predicts a negative group effect

Seismic Behavior of Micropile Systems Parametric effect of s/D on pile bending profile for 2x2 vertical pile group using GROUP program (0.9 FL - a/g = 0.3)

Research Objectives Behavior of Micropile Systems Behavior of the composite Micropile-reinforced soil systems Behavior of Micropile Systems Effect of the main group and network system parameters Basic load transfer mechanisms Experimental database and numerical analysis Evaluation and calibration of available analysis approaches & State of Practice Review

Assessment of Micropile Network Systems in Liquefied Soils Objectives * Excess Pore Pressure 1- Seismic Response of the composite micropile- reinforced soil system * Acceleration Profile and ground motion * Surface settlement Profile * Overall system stiffness (apparent natural frequency) 2- Load Transfer Mechanisms * Kinematical and Inertial loading * Micropile resisting forces (tension) * Dynamic p-y and t-z curves

Assessment of Micropile Network Systems in Liquefied Soils Objectives * Pile inclination 3- Effect of the main group and network parameters * Relative flexibility between micropiles & the surrounding soil (ductility, axial stiffness, & micropile cap connection) * Density of micropile reinforcement (spacing) * Geometric configuration of the reticulated system 4- Evaluation of the available analysis approaches through comparisons of method predictions with the experimental results of the centrifuge model tests 5 - Review of the Current State of Practice & Annual Review Board Meeting
