Pile foundations support vital structures in regions prone to seismic activity, yet their performance in liquefiable soils remains complex and critical for safe design. Seismic shaking can induce ...

Negative skin friction (NSF) is an important phenomenon in geotechnical engineering, referring to the additional axial drag imposed on piles as a result of differential soil movement relative to the ...

Kolkata: A flaw in the design of the foundation, possibly due to poor assessment of soil behaviour, appears to have caused a section of the Kavi Subhash station to settle, leading to cracks developing ...
