BEARING CAPACITY ASSESSMENT OF ROOT PILES INSTALLED IN SOIL–ROCK COMPOSITE STRATA

The bearing capacity of piles is one of the most important estimations in geotechnical engineering. One of the most commonly adopted pile types in foundation design is the micropile, locally known as a "root pile", which is a type of injected pile installed under pressures of up to 500 kPa during shaft formation. The b...
