numerical evaluation of behavior of excavations stabilized by cast-in-place concrete pile

one of the effective methods which is nowadays very common in deep excavation of urban areas is the stabilization of cut slopes using the cast-in-place concrete piles. the aim of this study is the evaluation of behavior of vertical cut slopes which are stabilized using the method of cast-in-place concrete piles. the layered soils with different geotechnical parameters have been modeled and analyzed using the finite element method. the effects of different parameters such as cohesion, the percent humidity of the soil as well as the geometrical shape of concrete piles on the horizontal and vertical displacements of cut slopes are also investigated.
