A method for sealing a post-cast strip in a foundation with no gap includes the following steps: mounting steel plates, horizontal pipes and vertical pipes cooperatively layer by layer in a post-cast strip, respectively, such that the upper open end of each vertical pipe protrudes from the ground through the post-cast strip; pouring grout into the post-cast strip from the top of the post-cast strip after the end of the settlement of the foundation, and carrying out high-pressure grouting into the vertical pipe using grouting equipment simultaneously; delivering the sealing grout poured into the vertical pipe to the horizontal pipes, such that the sealing grout overflows from the grout outlets of the horizontal pipes to densely fill up existing gaps; and cutting off the portion of the vertical pipe above the ground after the post-cast strip is completely sealed, and levelling the top of the cut-off vertical pipe with concrete.

A post foundation system is provided. The system has a shaft with a helical disk attached to one end and a post support attached to the other end. The helical disk drives the shaft into the ground as a rotational force is applied to the shaft. A fin section is rotatably coupled about the shaft between its first and second ends. The fin section can have one or more fins extending outwardly from the shaft. The fin section engages the ground to stabilize the post foundation system as the shaft of the post foundation system is driven into the ground.

Disclosed herein are a construction structure and method for an underground facility. The construction structure for an underground facility includes: a facility body including a foundation constructed by pouring concrete, and a cover member extending in the front-back direction and having both ends configured to extend downward and be fixed to the top surface of the foundation to form a tunnel-shaped space therebelow; and a soil cover layer formed to cover the facility body with soil. The construction method for an underground facility includes: forming a pit in the ground; constructing a foundation on the bottom surface of the pit; constructing a cover member to cover the top of the foundation; and constructing a soil cover layer by covering the pit with soil to cover the cover member.

A budding element for coupling with other budding elements to erect a retaining wall. Exemplary building elements have receiving spaces for receiving increased weight of fill material to provide increased stability. Optionally, each building element can have an enlarged face profile that provides efficiency in the shipping and assembly process. Optionally, each building element can define alignment voids that receive portions of alignment posts for ensuring vertical alignment between adjacent building elements or portions of building elements.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing foundations for uprights (1) by using metal sheets (2) embedded by vibration or by percussion comprising the steps of: a. arranging at least two sheets (2), each sheet (2) being provided with position adjustment means with respect to a connection element (5) between the sheet (2) itself and a connector (3) between the sheet (2) and upright (1); b. arranging a connector (3) between the sheet (2) and upright (1), adapted to be integrally connected to said upright (1) and provided with position adjustment means with respect to a connection element (5) between the sheet (2) and the connector (3) itself; c. arranging at least one connection element (5) between each sheet (2) and the connector (3), each connection element (5) being provided with first position adjustment means, adapted to adjust the position thereof with respect to the sheet (2) and second position adjustment means, adapted to adjust the position thereof with respect to the connector (3); d. arranging a centering system (4) for the sheets (2), which can be associated operationally with an embedding machine; e. embedding said sheets (2) into the ground by vibro-embedding or by percussion, with the aid of the centering system (4); f. positioning the connector (3) in the design position, adjusting the relative position between: —each sheet (2) and each connection element (5) by means of said position adjustment means of the sheet (2) and said first position adjustment means of the connection element (5); —each connection element (5) and the connector (3) by means of said position adjustment means of the connector (3) and said second position adjustment means of the connection element (5); g. locking such positions. The present invention also relates to a corresponding kit and to a centering system for sheets 2 adapted to be vibro-embedded or embedded by percussion.

The open end friction pile comprises of four steel plates, four brackets, and one driving head. The steel plates have a first bend line and a second bend line that are equidistant from a distal end. The first bend line and second bend line of the steel plates are equidistant from each other creating a center portion. The brackets have a first bend line and a second bend line that are equidistant from a distal end. The first bend line and second bend line of the brackets are equidistant from each other creating a center portion. The bracket has a third bend line along the center portion. One bracket is connected to one steel plate along the distal ends and center portion. All four steel plates and four brackets concurrently connect along the distal ends to form two open-ends. A driving head is connected covering the top open-end.

A membrane-lined wall for levee reinforcement or leak prevention, prevention of water migration, and pollution control of impoundments. The membrane-lined wall generally includes a cementitious or concrete wall formed within an excavated trench. The concrete may be internally reinforced, and the wall may also comprise a double-layer of impermeable geomembrane liner that forms a barrier between the concrete and the sides and bottom of the trench. The membrane or liner reduces water migration, prevents levee leakage, and prevents the escape of contaminants in impoundments.
