ABSTRACT

IPA-TC1 was set up in 2017 to figure out the issues for further application of cantilever type steel tubular pile wall embedded to stiff grounds and establish a rational design procedure of embedded cantilever steel tubular pile wall as the final goal. This state of the art report overviews the research activities done by TC1, i.e. case study, physical modeling, numerical analyses, parametrical study by design models, and gives considerations and remaining challenges for the rational design of this type of wall.
