Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

Experience is presented regarding the installation and operation of an observation system for the pile bed of a slab foundation at a site prone to karst formation using monitoring-measuring piles with special sensors, and also results of long-term observation of their readings. A procedure for validating the scheme used to deploy control piles and its probability assessment is described.
