Tokyo IWM August 2004 • Contribution to Session on : • case histories, and • strategies for database construction François SCHLOSSER & Roger FRANK CERMES (ENPC-LCPC)
Example of the Saint Maurice noise barrier (see 2nd Lizzi Lecture by F. Schlosser) • 2) An example of database strategy (LCPC design method for micropiles)
Preliminary questions : • What is a micropile ? • When can we expect ‘full interlocking’ effects?
MICROPILE LOAD – DISPLACEMENT CURVES Vertical Inclined ( traction) Axial force at the top( kN ) Displacement at the top (mm)
ROTATION ( R ) VERSUS APPLIED LOAD ( F ) R : rotation of the footing F : (lateral) load applied to the wall R (rad) F (kN)
COMPARISON BETWEEN MEASUREMENTS AND GOUPEG CALCULATIONS Rotation (rad) Measurement Goupeg 1 Goupeg 2 Applied load ( kN)
AXIAL LOAD ON VERTICAL PILE Force (kN) ( compression ) Depth z (m)
AXIAL LOAD ON INCLINED MICROPILE Force (kN) ( traction ) Depth z (m)
Design of high pressure injected anchorages and micropiles LCPC method (Bustamante and Doix, 1985)
Conclusion (main) :- one should know right from the beginning what is the aim of the study/test
