Ground improvement and special foundations at North Lisbon Logistic Platform, plot 1, Portugal
The North Lisbon Logistic Platform is located over soft soils at Tagus river right bank. At the Plot 1 an industrial warehouse with about 100.000 m2 was built. For the warehouse foundations the following solutions were adopted: i) structural elements: reinforced concrete driven piles; ii) indoor pavements: load transfer platform, granular fill reinforced with geosynthetics, over rigid inclusions, geoconcrete columns (GCC) with under reamed base and capped by stone columns; iii) outdoor pavements: load transfer platform, granular fill reinforced with geosynthetics, over stone columns. The main design and execution criteria are presented, as well as the main results of both site monitoring and full-scale load tests.
