SUMMARY:Online Workshop on Drilled Shafts in Soils – Design and Construction: Day 1 of 2
DESCRIPTION:Drilled shaft foundations in soils are often a technically sound and cost-effective foundation choice where a deep foundation solution is appropriate based on-site conditions\, applied loads and project schedule and performance requirements. To avoid adverse performance issues\, design of drilled shafts must be performed based on consideration of site-specific geologic conditions and construction methods. To help comprehend these crucial considerations for successful implementation of drilled shafts in soils\, the thrust of the discussions in this workshop is to establish a good understanding of the design procedures for drilled shafts and how construction procedures can affect the design of drilled shafts. Various design considerations and methods will be discussed. Different construction methods such as dry\, cased\, and wet will be discussed. The evaluation of structural integrity of constructed shafts using methods such as cross-hole sonic logging (CSL)\, gamma-gamma logging (GGL) and thermal integrity profiling (TIP) will also be presented. The presentation will be based on latest (2020) version of the Bridge Design Specifications (BDS) based on the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) platform of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials which is a key component of Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidelines for drilled shafts. Information from AASHTO’s latest (2020) guide specification for Service life design will also be presented. \nUsing a collaborative and interactive learning approach\, this virtual workshop will help you understand: (a) the design and construction procedures for drilled shafts in soils\, and (b) the importance of constructability considerations in design of drilled shafts. The workshop will help you assimilate these crucial considerations through active participation by frequent interactions throughout the workshop and real-time expert feedback. The interactions will facilitate a better understanding of the nuances of the various design and construction procedures which would help you avoid costly design and construction errors in real-world projects. In between the two live sessions\, attendees will independently work on an application (e.g.\, exercises) or a reflection (e.g.\, reading) assignment. \nDAY 1 – Thursday\, August 11\, 2022 \n\nIntroductions\nGeneral terminology for drilled shafts\nOverview of construction of drilled shafts\nFailure modes and limit states\nResistance and resistance factors\nEvaluation of geotechnical axial resistance using chart approach\nConcepts for evaluating lateral response\nConsiderations for Extreme Events (Scour and Seismic)\nTypical structural details\nIntroduction to drilled shaft construction processes in soils\nReview of Day 1\nInteractive Question and Answer (Q&A) session\nAssignment of homework\nAdjourn\n\nDAY 2- Monday\, August 15\, 2022 \n\nRoadmap for Day 2\nReview of homework assignments and recap of Day 1\nDry shaft construction\nCased shaft construction\nWet shaft construction\nMineral and polymer slurries\nSlurry management\nShaft excavation and cleaning\nReinforcing cage\nConcrete operations\nTolerances and checklists\nIntegrity testing\nClosure and references\nReview of Day 2 and full workshop\nInteractive Question and Answer (Q&A) session\nAdjourn
