Interpretation of Load Transfer Mechanism for Piles in Unsaturated Expansive Soils

Water infiltration associated with natural precipitation events or other artificial activities such as pipe leaks in expansive soils significantly influence the engineering properties; namely, coefficient of permeability, shear strength and volume change behavior. For this reason, it is challenging...
