INCREASE IN THE BEARING CAPACITY OF PILES SUNK IN BORINGS CUT IN FROZEN SOILS

POVYSHENIE NESUSHCHEJ SPOSOBNOSTI BUROOPUSKNYKH SVAJ PO GRUNTU

This article describes studies carried out at Norilsk, both in the laboratory and on site, in order to improve the bearing capacity by compaction of crushed material placed at the bottom of boreholes. A 30% improvement was obtained, and this permitted saving in reinforced concrete. (TRRL)
