    • Experimental investigation of the response of a driven pile in soft silt 

      Gallagher, D.; Gavin, K.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Lehane, Barry M. (National University of Ireland Galway, 2004-12-01)
      The paper describes the results of field tests carried out using highly instrumented piles at a very soft estuarine clayey silt deposit at Kinnegar, Belfast. The site has been used for a number of years as a geotechnical ...
    • Instrumented single and group piles in Belfast soft clay 

      Lehane, Barry M.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Phillips, D. T. (Australian Geomechanics Society, 2000-12)
      The paper presents a number of key findings from an experimental pile test programme, which is currently underway at a soft clay test bed site on the outskirts of Belfast, Northern Ireland. These findings provide additional ...
    • Measured and predicted t-z curves for a driven pile in lightly overconsolidated silt 

      McCabe, Bryan A.; Lehane, Barry M. (National University of Ireland Galway, 2008-04-03)
      Data from a static compression load test on a single driven pile in a lightly overconsolidated silt are presented in this paper. The pile was equipped with vibrating wire strain gauges along its length enabling its load ...
    • Pile groups under axial loading: an appraisal of simplified non-linear prediction models 

      Lehane, B.M.; Sheil, Brian B.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Comodromos, Emilios M.; Lehane, Barry M. (Thomas Telford (ICE Publishing), 2019-06-12)
      The settlement behaviour of vertically loaded pile groups has been the subject of an extensive body of research over the past two decades. In particular, this work has identified the over-conservatism associated with ...
    • Stress changes associated with driving pile groups in clayey silt 

      McCabe, Bryan A.; Lehane, Barry M. (National University of Ireland Galway, 2003)
      Measurements obtained from lateral total stress sensors located on the centre pile of a small driven pile group and pneumatic piezometers installed in the vicinity of the group are used to assess the disturbance associated ...
