Course Description 從樁基礎之分析方法、施工程序、土壤特性等項目,學習樁基礎在大地工程中之應用。課程內容包含樁基礎軸向與側向之承載力、軸向與側向受力變形行為、土壤結構戶制、群樁分析以及現地大型試驗與檢測。
The students are expected to learn the application of deep foundation in geotechnical engineering practice. The class contents include ultimate capacities and load-deflection of piles and drilled shafts subjected to compressive loads, tensile loads, and lateral loads; soil-structure interaction; two- and three-dimensional analysis of pile groups with closely-spaced piles; effects of installation; inspection of deep foundations and full-scale field tests.
