Preface
On a five-yearly basis and starting in 1988, the Bored and Auger Pile Seminars have been organized in Ghent.
The intriguing complexity of the soil-pile interaction and its related load-settlement behaviour do justify such specialized topic meetings, especially in case of bored and even more of screw piles.
Contractors, designers and academicians complied once more in the proceedings their new approaches and developments of the last five years, elucidating the today’s state-of-the-art from pile installation, pile testing and pile capacity-evaluation point of view.
Newly implemented topics such as energy pile concepts are involved as well in this edition of the BAP events. For sure, this might indeed become a much more relevant issue in the coming decade.
This fifth Bored an Auger Pile Seminar hopefully will also contribute to a better and more efficient professional interaction of specialized contractors, designers and academicians gathering in the discussion sessions this week.
It’s the main editor’s pleasure to thank sincerely all members of the Scientific and the Organizing Committee in preparing this fifth BAP event. For the continuous follow up of the Seminar’s organizing details as well as the lay-out of the proceedings, the laboratory scientific staff Dr ir P. Van Impe, ir R.D. Verastegui F., ir G. Di Emidio; L. Barbetti and the technical-administrative staff Mrs. K. Crombeen, Mrs. L. Van Cauwenberge, Mrs. H. De Cooman, Mr. B. Van Impe, Mr. F. Van Boxstael and Mr. J. Van der Perre should be acknowledged.
