چکیده مقاله :
The present study studies and evaluates the interactions between the states of structure-soil interaction for strip foundations reinforced with pile pedestals under dynamic loads such as earthquakes. To do this, the first design of strip foundation on sandy soil attempted to understand the geotechnical behavior of foundation under dynamic loading. The strip foundation is a regular procedure used to improve the dynamic response to earthquakes. As a methodology, the finite element method and Plaxis software were used to simulate the displacement and deformation condition of the soil-structure interaction. According to the results, the program was successfully implemented to model the strip reinforced foundations in saturated sandy soil under dynamic loading.
