... the structural strength of the foundation wood piles, which effectively removed pile bearing and caused the piles to be dragged down by long-term soil settlement. Eventually, the bridge was replaced. Wick drains were installed for the replacement bridge embankments to accelerate settlements and pore pressure...

... response to impact loading is primarily governed by high-frequency vibrations. This single-impulse, high-frequency characteristic fundamentally differs from the cyclic, lower frequency nature of seismic loading, underscoring the unique transient effects on pore pressure dissipation mechanisms investigated...

... of the raft are calculated for both connected and disconnected PRFs. Figure 11 shows a typical diagram for the variation of excess pore pressures in soil in connected and disconnected PRFs of square and rectangular pile groups (L/d = 39, S/d = 5, raft size = 25 × 25 × 1.2 m...
