RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF PILES. PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONFERENCE HELD AT THE INSTITUTION OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS, 21-22 MARCH, 1979

The proceedings contain the following papers: The design, development, testing and on-contract trials of a modular piling system (Young,FE and Reddaway, AL); Joints used in Sweden for precase concrete piles (Bredenberg,H and Broms,BB); Use of mechanically jointed precast concrete piles in Central Scotland (Simcox,J and Buchanan, NW); The design and installation of precast concrete piles in the Keuper Marl of the Severn Estuary (Leach,B and Mallard, DJ); Cast in situ piles in carsti limestone (Sotiropoulos,E and Cavounidis,S); Concrete screw piles, a vibrationless, non-displacement piling method (Van den Elzen,LWA); conditions for effective end bearing of bored, cast in situ piles (Sliwinski,ZJ and Philpot,TA); The deformation of vertical piles in London clay under static and cyclic horizontal working loads (Price,G and Wardle, IF); Lateral loading and tension tests on a driven cased pile in chalk (Lord,JA and Davies, JAG); The protection of concrete piles in aggressive ground conditions: an international appreciation (Bartholomew,RF); A method of corrosion protection against sulphate reducing bacteria for mechanically jointed precast piles (Bamber,TO'B); Design and construction of driven cast in situ piles in stiff fissured clays (Hammond,AJ, Mitchell,JM and Lord,JA); Pore pressures of NC soft silty clay around driven displacement piles (Appendino,M,Jamiolkowski,M and Lancellotta,R); Pile embedment in fine-grained non-cohesive soils(Thorburn,S and Buchanan,NW).
