Abstract
The load-settlement and monolithic behaviors of a new type of deep foundation in sand named Box-Shaped Deep Foundation (BSDF) were studied, and a comparison to Conventional Piled Raft Foundations (CPRF) was made by carrying out extensive numerical analysis. Physical model tests were also conducted to validate the numerical approach presented in this study, and it turned out to be a reasonable agreement. In the scope of this paper, the results of the parametric study are presented, and design strategies for an optimized design of BSDFs are discussed.
