2023 CCLT: Helical Piles - Efficient Foundation for Static, Dynamic and Seismic Applications

Helical piles have become popular foundation option owing to their many advantages related to ease of installation and large load carrying capacity. They are typically manufactured of straight steel shafts fitted with one or more helices and are installed using mechanical torque. They can sustain static and dynamic loading and are increasingly used in applications that induce complex loading conditions on them. The behavior and design of single vertical helical piles subjected to static loading is well investigated. However, the dynamic and seismic behavior of single helical piles and their group behavior are of great importance in modern foundation engineering practice but not yet well understood. This presentation presents recent advances in evaluating the axial and lateral capacity and performance of single and grouped helical piles and their response to static, dynamic and seismic loads.
