Pile design relies predominantly on SPT data; cone penetration testing is performed only occasionally. Conference on Deep Foundations. There has been considerable debate in the geotechnical press about the benefits and drawbacks of Eurocode compliance, but one thing is clear- the Eurocodes are here to stay. In-situ testing, and sampling techniques. It was found that Updated and improved static design equations recently proposed in the literature have not yet been implemented in practice. In-situ penetration tests have been widely used in geotechnical and foundation engineering for site investigation in support of analysis and design. Geoengineer.org is the International Information Center for Geoprofessionals, providing free access Geotechnical News and Resources for Geoprofessionals and geotechnical engineering professionals, students and academia. Cone penetration tests (CPT) and pressuremeter tests (PMT) were made in the area where the building was planned. These included both cable-tool and rotary drilled boreholes, window sample boreholes, trial pits, static cone penetration testing (CPT), pressure, meter testing, dynamic cone penetration (DCP) testing and CBRs.

Foundation Innovation Changes the Skyline and Advances Our Practice Great American Tower, the tallest building in Cincinnati, is not only changing the downtown skyline, but, thanks to Terracon's innovation in geotechnical engineering it is also contributing to the advancement of the state-of-the-art use of auger cast-in-place (ACIP) piles as settlement reducers. Interviews with INDOT geotechnical engineers and private geotechnical consultants frequently involved in INDOT's deep foundation projects provided information on the methods and software currently employed.
