报告摘要
Helical piles have become popular foundation option owing to their many advantages related to ease of installation and large load carrying capacity. They are typically manufactured of straight steel shafts fitted with one or more helices and are installed using mechanical torque. They can sustain static and dynamic loading and are increasingly used in applications that induce complex loading conditions on them. The behavior and design of single vertical helical piles subjected to static loading is well investigated. However, the dynamic and seismic behavior of single helical piles and their group behavior are of great importance in modern foundation engineering practice but not yet well understood. This presentation presents recent advances in evaluating the axial and lateral capacity and performance of single and grouped helical piles and their response to static, dynamic and seismic loads.

Dr. Hesham El Naggar is a Distinguished University professor and a world leader in foundation dynamics and geotechnical earthquake engineering. He advanced the state-of-the-art in analysis and design of foundations for dynamic loads. His work on foundation design and geotechnical earthquake engineering has been incorporated into design guidelines recommended by regulatory bodies and learned societies. He is Editor-In-Chief of Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering and past Associate Editor of the Canadian Geotechnical Journal. He published more than 600 technical papers and book chapters including more than 420 in selective and prestigious journals soil-structure interaction and geotechnical earthquake engineering; and consulted on major projects worldwide. He has delivered more than 80 plenary, keynotes and invited speeches at national and international conferences. Dr. El Naggar attracted more than $20M of research funding and graduated more than 120 PhD and Master students. In recognition of his outstanding research contributions, Dr. El Naggar received many prestigious awards including the Cross-Canada Lecture Tour, Geosynthetics, Stermac, Meyerhof and Canadian Geotechnical Colloquium Speaker Awards from the Canadian Geotechnical Society; the Ontario Professional Engineers Medal for Engineering Research & Development; the prestigious 2021 Zhongguancun Award for Outstanding Contribution, from Beijing Council of Science and Technology He is an elected Fellow of Canadian Academy of Engineering, the Engineering Institute of Canada and the American Society for Civil Engineers.
