2/6/2018 FAILURE OF PILE FOUNDATION & REMEDIES
The failure of the pile foundation may result from any of the following causes: Stability of Slopes for
Excavations in Different Soil
1. Lack of adequate boring Types
2. Inaccurate soil classification
3. Soft strata under tip of pile
4. Inadequate driving formula (wrong data)
5. Improper size of hammer cause insufficient penetration, too light or damaged if too
heavy
6. Misinterpretation of load
7. Damaged of encased piles
8. Buckling of piles
9. Breaking of piles
10. Vibration that cause lateral or vertical movement
11. Flowing strata caused by adjacent excavation or bank sloughing
12. Tension failure of concrete pile for lack of reinforcement
Stress in Structural Materials,
13. Eccentricity due to bowing or falling out of plumb Their Types and Sign
14. Decay due to lower ground water level Conventions
15. Insect and marine borer attack and corrosion
16. Disintegration of concrete due to poor quality of concrete or reactive aggregate
17. Collapse of the thin shell of the piles
18. Overweight due to earthfill.
