Design and Practice of Tall Building Foundations Geotalk VII 7 Sept 2017

The document discusses aspects of planning and implementing foundations for tall buildings. It covers several topics related to tall building foundations including: 1) High load intensities from tall buildings can cause bearing capacity issues, especially for larger diameter and longer piles, as well as deep basements. 2) Methods for calculating bearing capacity including equations for friction and end bearing capacity. Safety factors of 3-4 are recommended. 3) Analysis methods for estimating pile settlements including load transfer methods, redundancy, and considering pile group effects. 4) Numerical modeling methods for deep excavations including PLAXIS, MIDAS, and SAP to model soil structure interaction, lateral earth pressures, and temporary supports.

 High load intensities – Bearing capacity

 Larger diameter and longer piles –
Settlement issues, Construction issues.
 Deep Basements
Bearing Capacity

Luciano Decourt (1995)


 Friction : qs =  (2.8 N60 + 10 ) kPa
=1 for driven piles in any soil
and bored piles in clay
 = 0.5 to 0.6 bored piles in sand

 End Bearing: qb = Kb Nb
Bearing Capacity

 Qult = m NSPT Ab+ n NSPT As (kN)


m = 400 - Driven Piles
= 120 - Bored Piles
 n=2 - Driven Piles
=1 - Bored Piles
 Must use a SF  3 to 4
 qb,limit = 10 – 15 MPa
 qs, limit = 100 kPa
Safety Factor = 2.5??
