LRFD Axial Load Design of Drilled Shafts and Post-Grouting Technology
This engineering online CPD live webinar combines axial foundational design principles with advanced performance enhancement techniques for drilled shafts, offering a complete perspective on modern deep foundation solutions.
The course begins with an in-depth overview of axial load design using Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) methodology, focusing on key topics such as load combinations, limit states, resistance factors, and uplift force considerations. Participants will gain the tools to evaluate side and base resistances in both cohesive and cohesionless soils, ensuring designs meet safety and performance standards. This course also introduces post-grouted drilled shafts—a cutting-edge innovation that significantly improves shaft performance in challenging ground conditions. Through detailed discussion of post-grouting mechanisms such as pre-mobilization, ground improvement, tip enlargement, and increased side resistance, attendees will explore how this technique enhances capacity
