Description

Pile foundations are critical for transferring structural loads safely to deeper, more stable soil layers—especially in high-rise buildings, bridges, and infrastructure projects on weak or unstable ground. For structural engineers, mastering pile foundation design and detailing is essential to ensure safety, cost-efficiency, and compliance with international codes.

This hands-on course equips you with practical skills in designing and detailing pile foundations using industry-leading software: Tekla Tedds (for automated calculations) and Protastructure (for advanced structural analysis). You’ll learn best practices for load analysis, pile capacity estimation, group pile design, reinforcement detailing, and construction considerations—all while adhering to Eurocode, BS code, or other relevant standards.

Key Learning Outcomes:

✔ Fundamentals of Pile Foundations – Types, selection criteria, and geotechnical considerations.
✔ Software-Aided Design – Efficiently analyze and design piles using Tekla Tedds & Protastructure.
✔ Load Calculations – Vertical, lateral, and seismic load distribution on piles.
✔ Pile Group Efficiency – Optimize layout and spacing for stability.
✔ Detailing & Drawings – Create precise reinforcement details and construction documents.
✔ Real-World Applications – Case studies on building projects.
