*Free to Central Ohio ASCE Section members
*Seating is limited to the first 25 people
*Bring your own lunch

This webinar will discuss the terminology and construction of drilled shafts, identification of limit states and resistance factors, development and use of axial resistance charts, concept of mobilized resistance, group efficiency factors for evaluation of axial resistance of shafts in groups, p-multipliers for evaluation of lateral resistance of shafts in groups, redundancy, evaluation of settlement of shaft groups, use of construction point concept, uplift resistance, consideration of extreme event limits state such as scour and seismic events, and typical structural detailing. The webinar will assume that the participant has a basic working knowledge of design and construction of drilled shafts.
