Development of a double-corrosion-protected self-drilling micropile for the foundation of rockfall protection structures

Abstract

The construction of protective structures is one of the most important tasks of
engineers in the field of natural hazard management. In addition to the often adverse environmental conditions during the installation of these structures, the inspection and the maintenance of such constructions is associated with a high level of effort. This paper presents a newly developed foundation method in the form of a self-drilling, double-corrosion-protected micropile. This component is expected to make a significant contribution in ensuring the durability of protective structures and a sufficient planned service life of more than 30 years. In addition, a brief outlook into
the field of loads on protective structures and the suitability and acceptance testing of micropiles is given. Finally, the current status of the further development of the newly conceived micropile and the possibilities that such a system can offer are discussed
