Pile Design for Structural and Geotechnical Engineers416 pages | Butterworth-Heinemann (February 8, 2008) | ISBN: 0750687630 | PDF | 6.4Mb All objects and structures transfer their load either directly or indirectly to the earth. The capacity of the earth to support such loads depends on the strength and stability of the supporting soil or rock materials. Pile foundations are the part of a structure used to carry and transfer the load of the structure...
