2‑Day FHWA‑NHI Course on Micropile Design and Construction
Donald Bruce, Geosystems, LP
Alan Cadden, Schnabel Engineering Assoc.
The goal of this course is to provide guidance on when and where it is appropriate to use micropiles and to educate engineers about the state of practice in the design and construction of micropiles. The course covers stepwise procedures for the design of micropiles for structural support and for slope stability applications. Construction, inspection and integrity testing aspects and issues are discussed as well. Classroom presentations include exercises that will lead participants though the technical and cost feasibility aspects of structural support and slope stability design with micropiles. Participants will receive a workbook and reference manual containing detailed micropile design examples for various applications. A brief discussion will be provided on the design and construction of micropiles in reference to the 7th Edition of the Massachusetts State Building Code.
