This document summarizes a seminar on forensic civil engineering regarding the assessment of pile group integrity due to pile eccentricities and failures. It discusses developing charts to evaluate the maximum allowable eccentricity of pile groups and optimal locations for additional or replacement piles when eccentricities or failures render the pile group unsafe. The document provides an example calculation checking the integrity of a 4-pile group with eccentric piles and determining the need for an additional pile based on the pile loads and eccentricities.

Method for determination of shear strength of soil (Badarpur Sand) with a maximum particle size of 4.75 mm in drained conditions using Direct Shear Test apparatus.
It is a Floating Box type test in which upper half box is floating due to application of vertical loading resulting in lateral confinement thus generating sufficient friction which holds the upper half of shear box.
In the shear box test, the specimen is not failing along its weakest plane but along a predetermined or induced failure plane i.e. horizontal plane separating the two halves of the shear box. This is the main drawback of this test.
Moreover, during loading, the state of stress cannot be evaluated. It can be evaluated only at failure condition. Also, failure is progressive.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

2. THE ASSESSEMENT OF PILE GROUP
INTEGRITY DUE TO PILE
ECCENTRICITIES & FAILURES
ir azhar ahmad school of civil engineering

3. The following course notes are specifically for
use in ‘Assessment of Pile Group Integrity due
to Pile Eccentricities & Failures’ only. Any
reproduction or public display of the contents
beyond this short course is prohibited without
prior consent of the author.
5. ABSTRACT
The mode of driving precast reinforced concrete piles on site
is without doubt among the most ‘error prone’ trades of a
construction process. The short comings of driving pre
designated piles at pin point accuracy at exactly the correct
position on the ground has given rise to the caption of ‘pile
eccentricity’ of nearly all individual piles within a pile group.
This then raises questions of integrity or how safe and
reliable are pile caps that has been designed earlier with zero
pile eccentricities. Questions of how much an eccentricity
limit can be allowed for each pile or rather pile group
arrangements such that previous pile cap designs are still safe
and applicable has to be addressed.
5
6. Thus one of the aims of this study is to evaluate the
maximum allowable eccentricity of several common pile
group arrangements. Results of this study indicates that the
norm of adopting a maximum allowable eccentricity value of
75 mm for each individual pile irrespective of pile size, pile
working load, pile spacing & column loads is quite misleading
and may result in an unsafe pile group performance!
6
ABSTRACT
7. Rather, results from this study suggests that the critical factor is
not the eccentricity of individual piles but the overall net pile
group eccentricity. This causes eccentric moments to act in the
pile group which in turn governs the redistributed load to each
individual pile within the pile group. This redistributed loads are
then compared to the pile safe working load to establish a
‘Pass-Fail’ criteria.
< Pile Safe Working Load
Fp: Redistributed Loads to each individual pile kN
N : Net Column Service Load kN (incl self weight of pile cap)
n : Pile Safe Working Load kN

ABSTRACT
9. Moreover this study has shown that
i. the ratio of net column service load over pile safe working
load (N/n Ratio)
ii. the centre to centre pile spacing (K Factor)
both have significant impact on the net pile group
eccentricity limits.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.0 The development of a Net Pile Group
Eccentricity Limit Chart. These charts can
be referred to evaluate the safety and
reliability of pile caps that has been designed
earlier by ignoring pile eccentricities against
actual pile eccentricities recorded on site.
20. 20
2.0 The development of an Optimum Add-On
Pile Location Chart. Where eccentricities
beyond ‘allowable’ limits occur, this will
render pile groups and the subsequent pile
caps as ‘unsafe’ to sustain column loads due
to eccentric moments which causes loads
distributed to piles to be greater than the pile
working load capacities! The most practical
solution usually adopted on site to rectify this
problem is by installing additional or ‘add-on’
pile/s.

3.0 The development of an Optimum
Replacement Pile Location Chart. Where
pile failure occurs during driving, this will
render pile groups and the subsequent pile
caps as ‘unsafe’ to sustain column loads due
to eccentric moments which causes loads
distributed to piles to be greater than the pile
working load capacities! The most practical
solution usually adopted on site to rectify this
problem is by installing replacement pile/s.

If on the other hand the value of Nsls is increased from 610 kN to 656 kN
For N/n = 656 kN / 175 kN = 3.75
From chart, the net pile group ecc. point (-41mm, +140 mm) lies outside the

Therefore need additional pile to reduce load on all piles.

Referring to the following calculation, the optimum
location of additional pile will be at position (+41 mm, -

CONCLUSION
1.0 This study has shown that the norm of
adopting an eccentricity limit of 75mm
for each individual pile in a pile group
as a ‘Pass-Fail’ criteria irrespective of
pile dimensions, intensity of column
service load, pile working load and pile
spacing is unsatisfactory (see pg 32).

RECOMMENDATION
The ‘Pass-Fail’ criteria for a particular Pile Group
Arrangement should be based on the comparison between
Redistributed Loads (individual pile) and the Pile Safe Working
Load. These redistributed loads arise from eccentric moments
induced into the pile group due to either pile eccentricity or pile
failure conditions.
> Pile Safe Working Load
Fp: Redistributed Loads to each individual pile kN
N : Net Column Service Load kN (incl self weight of pile cap)
n : Pile Safe Working Load kN
70. 70
RECOMMENDATION
This criteria can then be translated into graphical form for a
specific value of:
i. Pile dimensions
ii. Pile spacing
iii. Pile working loads
iv. Range of column service loads
