摘要

Ground stabilization using granular piles (GPs) and rafts is the optimal method for enhancing the foundation of embankments and structures on soft soils. This approach involves utilizing three components, namely the raft, GPs, and soil, to distribute loads to the subsurface. The current research investigates a group of two floating granular piles rafts (2 GPRs), utilizing an elastic continuum technique through analytical examination, considering various parameters of both the raft and piles, such as raft size, pile length, and spacing between the 2 GPRs. The parametric analysis was conducted by taking into account the settlement compatibility between the interface of the GP and soil, as well as the raft and soil. The settlement influence factor (SIF) of a GP with a rigid raft on top is evaluated to determine the overall response, considering the 2 GPRs, rigid raft alone, and pile alone. Based on the results, design charts are developed to aid in the design process.
