The calculated response from a numerical model will deviate from the measured one given
the presence of modelling idealizations and real world construction effects. This deviation …

The story of statistics in geotechnical engineering can be traced to Lumb's classical
Canadian Geotechnical Journal paper on “The Variability of Natural Soils” published in …

If you scan a page from a soil report, this is called digitization. If you deploy digital
technologies, both software such as building information modeling and machine learning …

Model Uncertainties in Foundation Design is unique in the compilation of the largest and the
most diverse load test databases to date, covering many foundation types (shallow …

Prediction is one of the core activities in geotechnical engineering. Because of our limited
knowledge of ground conditions and the imperfection of predictive models, the resulting …

Determining the load-bearing capacity of piles using the results of in situ tests is one of the
most widely used methods. The objective of this study is to examine suitable cone …

This paper summarizes 239 static load tests to evaluate the performance of four static design
methods for axial resistance of driven piles in clay. The methods are ISO 19901-4: 2016 …

The UniCone direct piezocone method by Eslami and Fellenius (1997) for evaluating the
axial capacity of pile foundations is reviewed and improved means of evaluating the soil …

This study compiles 320 static-load tests to quantify the model factors in reliability-based
limit-state design of drilled shafts under axial loading. At ultimate limit-state, the model factor …

Featured Application Output of the presented study can serve as a theoretical foundation for
application of methods for designing of pile foundations or can serve as a reference study for …
