Berechnung einer Kombinierten Pfahl-Plattengründung am Beispiel des Hochhauses "Skyper" in Frankfurt/Main

Calculation of a piled raft foundation as a case study for the high rise building "Skyper" in Frankfurt/Main.

Various calculation methods were applied on the piled raft foundation of the high rise building "Skyper". The results are compared and discussed. Numerical methods as well as simplified methods based on the elastic half space theory lead in the actual case to reasonable results. With the derived subgrade reaction modulus and pile stiffness the raft reinforcement was computed. A recommendation for the application of numerical and simplified methods is given.
