ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA DE FUNDAÇÕES PROFUNDAS PARA RESERVATÓRIO METÁLICO APOIADO: estaca de concreto pré-fabricado e estaca Strauss - estudo de caso

Abstract

The present work addresses the theme “Comparative analysis of deep foundations for supported metal reservoir: on one side, precast concrete pile and on the other, Strauss pile - a case study”. Such an approach is justified by the importance of choosing the foundation type due to the great diversity in the market, which grows more and more as technology advances. The purpose of this comparative is to present two types of study thus exposing their benefits and disadvantages, in order to define which will be the best choice economically, for a specific case study, always aiming at the real need of the enterprise. It will be used the semi empirical method proposed by Aoki and Velloso (1975) for the calculation of the foundation elements, with which will be made an analysis for Strauss deep pile foundation and deep foundation for prefabricated concrete pile. By the way is to be analyzed according to survey report. Thus, its functionalities are exposed, and a cost survey is carried out, for comparative analysis between the two types of foundations proposed, in order to define the best choice of piles for the foundation of a supported metallic reservoir, which will be presented in the case study.
