DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OF MICROPILES
FOR UNDERPINNING
7:30 AM - 11:30 AM
Mike Empiza,David Kirschner and David
Scott, of Keller, will outline reasons and typical
conditions for underpinning and will detail
methods for underpinning, including Helical
Piles, Push Piers, Conventional/Pit Underpinning,
Ground Modification, Shoring Systems, and
Micropiles. Special concentration will be given
to micropile design and installation methods,
including determination of loads and a variety of
methodologies.
CASE HISTORIES OF SLOPE STABILITY AND SLOPE
STABILIZATION
7:30 AM - 4:30 PM
Tim Stark and Daniel Pradel - This short course
will present recent advances in slope stability
analyses and shear strength assessments including
static and seismic shear strength selection, two-
and three-dimensional slope stability analyses,
slope stabilization techniques and analyses, and
demonstration of state-of-the-art limit equilibrium
and finite difference software packages evaluating slope stability. More importantly, we will
use case histories to illustrate the application of
shear strength concepts and their relevance when
using slope stability methods of analysis. This format
will help practitioners apply modern slope stability
principles to better design slope stabilizations and/
or remedial measures. For this short course we
propose discussing strength and related technical

preloading). An update on GeoTechTools, recently
acquired by the Geo-Institute, will be provided. Case
histories will be discussed to demonstrate the use of
ground modification methods to solve challenging
geotechnical problems. This course will also present
the ASCE Geo-Institute-sponsored China Scan Tour
on the latest ground modification methods used in
China.
PDCA DEEP FOUNDATIONS QC/QA FOR
ENGINEERS, CONTRACTORS, AND INSPECTORS
12:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Mohamad Hussein and Mike Justason - This course
provides an overview of common methods of QA/
QC for Deep Foundations and provides some
perspectives on. The value of QA/QC from design
and construction points-of-view. The course includes
a discussion on factors to consider during the
design phase of a project, during installation, and
post construction as well as a short specifications
overview. The course introduces the main methods
for performing inspections and testing for
driven
piles, drilled shafts, and augercast piles, although
many of the methods described also apply to
other types of deep foundations. The effect of
well-planned and well-executed QA/QC programs
on the design and construction of more costeffective,
efficient, and reliable deep foundations
will be discussed with experts in the area of deep
foundations.
