Abstract

Thanks to their ease of installation, even in access-restricted spaces, micropiles are increasingly adopted for the seismic rehabilitation of existing structures. Moreover, both vertical and inclined micropiles are often used as foundation system for new constructions, ground improvements and many other applications. In order to deepen the knowledge of the dynamic behavior of those systems under horizontal loading, an extensive experimental study was carried out in an alluvial silty soil deposit on two single vertical micropiles and on a group of four inclined micropiles connected at the head by a concrete cap. Several testing procedures are exploited, in order to investigate the dynamic behavior of micropiles under different loading conditions and increasing force level, with special attention on the role of execution techniques and foundation configuration.
