onstruction of foundation of bridges in remote hilly terrain, in adverse

climatic condition, isvery difficult due to the limited working period and

unavailability of transportation of machinery and equipments as in Leh-Ladakh

region of India. In such situations regular pile foundation is not feasible. The

study was taken up with to carry out experimental design for bridge and ascertain

the applicability of micro-piles as bridge foundation under such adverse

conditions. The methodology included field and lab tests for soil and sub-soil

investigation, vertical and lateral load tests on micro-piles. The design of micro-

pile foundation and sub structure is based on success results of the tests i.e. the

safe load capacity achieved in these tests. Based upon experimental success

results, confirmation for using micro piles was accorded. In future, micro-piles

can prove to be a better solution in where river bed is laden with boulders and

other similar difficult situations
