Pile Foundation Analysis and Design Edward H. Davis, Harry G. Poulos
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc

It provides the engineer the ability to quickly define and edit Isolated, Combined, Continuous, Wall, and Strap Footings, as well as Mat and Pile Foundations, all in a parametric modeling environment. At the end of this course student acquires the capacity to investigate the soil condition and to design suitable foundation.

On pile foundation usually chosen due too bad soil bearing capacity or high settlement on clay. Types of piles and their function – Factors influencing the selection of pile – Carrying capacity of single pile in granular and cohesive soil - Static formula - dynamic formulae (Engineering news and Hiley's) – Capacity from insitu tests (SPT and SCPT) – Negative skin friction – uplift capacity Bowles J.E, “Foundation analysis and design”, McGraw-Hill, 1994 5. As the footings and foundations are created by the S-FOUNDATION Design can be used as a stand-alone application, but it is also completely integrated within S-FRAME Analysis for a detailed study of soil-structure interaction. Despite its behavior, soil is one of the most important in civil engineering design.
