Long-Term Settlement of Buildings Erected on Driven Cast-In-Situ Piles in Loess Soil

Abstract

Results are presented for long-term geodetic observations of the settlement of residential buildings erected on driven cast-in-situ piles that are part of foundation frames on loess soil. Stabilized deformations of building foundation beds are compared to the results of analysis using normative methods and simulation of the stress-strain state of the system using two- and three-dimensional versions of the finite element method and a plasticelastic soil model.
