The application of basal reinforced piled embankments and earth structures is an approved method particularly in traffic route engineering as technique for transferring static and variable loads on soil layers with low bearing capacity (e.g. soft clay) into deeper stiffer soil layers. Amongst others like CUR 226 and BS 8006 the EBGEO (Recommendations for Design and Analysis of Earth Structures using...
Quasi-static and dynamic loads from train-traffic are applied to the entire track system: super-structure, substructure and subsoil. Due to lack of maintenance of the track bed, the dynamic loads on the track system causes an accumulation of excess pore water pressure within the sub-structure. Furthermore, a pumping effect exerted on the track system, which depends on the axle load and velocity of...
