By determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g an optimal depth for piles, the distance between trench and vibration source can be avoided.<br />
The optimal distance for L is 0.08 Bf and by go<strong>in</strong>g far from this value (L=0.08 Bf) the trench will be useless.<br />
For passive screen<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the case <strong>of</strong> H≈D the trench location 4< �� �<br />

pile length variations could have an important effect on the open trench function.<br />
Open trench screen<strong>in</strong>g with constant depth is more effective <strong>in</strong> collapsible soils than stiff soils and this can<br />
be as the result <strong>of</strong> Rayleigh wavelength reduction <strong>in</strong> collapsible soils.<br />
