Electric discharge technology (EDT) has ample opportunities in the field of geotechnical construction. It has a number of technological advantages. EDT bored piles have increased bearing capacity both for the soil and for the material due to the maximum inclusion of the surrounding soil in the combined action. Unlike other types of piles, the cross section of an EDT pile has additional areas of cementation and compaction. Due to these areas, specific bearing capacity for the soil of these piles exceeds the bearing...

The creation of footings and foundations with an increased load capacity is a crucial task of modern geotechnical construction. Among all the existing technologies pertinent to the construction of such foundations, underground structures, such as bored piles of large diameters, are most strongly sought-for. The existing construction technologies, in which such piles are used, make it possible to realize substantial values of load capacity (Fd). This parameter may be increased just via changing the length and diame...
