| Abstract | This paper presents two case histories covering a collapsed piled supported reinforced soil wall at weak deposits under extreme weather condition and another case of excessive movement of piled road embankment approaches affecting the bridge abutments. The first case history demonstrates an ultimate limit state condition under the most unfavorable meteorological events of which the failure was expected and justified from the design review, whereas the second case shows the problem of the consolidation settlement of working platform resulting free standing condition of the embankment piles with high lateral loading from the non-pile supported approach earth embankment of lower height. Both cases involve the reaching of ultimate lateral pile resistance of the supported structure. Sequence of events established from investigation evidences leading to the failure are illustrated in the paper and remedial solutions are also presented. |
