Abstract
Suction-installed caisson foundations are being used or considered for a wide variety of offshore applications ranging from anchors for floating facilities to shallow foundations for offshore wind turbines. In the design of the caissons the installation procedure must be considered as well as the in-place performance. The scope of this paper is to consider the calculations appropriate for the installation of caissons in sands. Calculation methods are presented for determining the resistance to penetration of open-ended cylindrical caisson foundations both with and without the application of suction inside the caisson. Comparisons are made with case records. A companion paper addresses the calculation procedure for installation in clays as well as in other soils.
期刊介绍：
The objectives of the Association shall be the promotion of co-operation among geotechnical societies in SE Asia; and the assistance to member societies who have limited number of members. Now there is only one combined web titled: AGSSEA-SEAGS. SEAGS & AGSSEA encourage the submission of scholarly and practice-oriented articles to its journal. The journal is published quarterly. Both sponsors of the journal, the Southeast Asian Geotechnical Society and the Association of Geotechnical Societies in Southeast Asia, promote the ideals and goals of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechhnical Engineering in fostering communications, developing insights and enabling the advancement of the geotechnical engineering discipline.
