Soil stabilization by using micropile
(AIKTC, 2018-05) Dasgupta, Rohan; Tuse, Aniket (14CE61); Abdullah, Zaid(14CE63); Mohd, Mahboob(15DCE65)
Micropiles have been primarily used as foundation support elements to resist static and dynamic loadings, and to a lesser extent, to provide reinforcements to the stabilization of slopes and excavations. Micropiles have been used effectively in many applications of ground improvement to increase the bearing capacity and stabilization of slopes. The purpose of this study is to determine fundamental design guidance for using micropiles for the stabilization of slope by performing slope stability analyses referring manual or codal provisions, Construction and installation of Micropile is also discussed. The study gives a brief idea about the optimum angle of inclination of micropile to resists the horizontal force for different soil samples having different cohesive properties and angle of friction.
