Abstract:The use of Piled Raft Foundations Systems (PRFS) has been extended to different types of soils, including soft clay soils. In this type of soil it is possible that, in addition to the consolidation process due to the presence of loads, a subsidence process is generated, associated with variations in pore pressure with depth. In many cases, these variations are associated with the loss of recharge of the aquifers or with the extraction of water from deep soil layers. In this work, the behaviour of some PRFS bui… Show more
