One of the methods of improving the bearing capacity of bored piles is giving them a taper. The feature of these (wedge-type) piles is that under load they work "as a thrust" and transfer part of the load due to the normal component to the inclined side surface. Three sizes of tapered bored piles were tested, with the length of 4.5 m, head diameter 0.4; 0.5; 0.6 m and with cone angle 1o and 2,5o. The test results were compared with the test results of cylindrical piles, 4.5 m long, with head diameter 0.4 m and 0.6 m. It has been discovered that with the increasing cone angle, the bearing capacity of piles against the pressing load, especially the specific load capacity for 1 m3 of material, as compared to cylindrical piles, increases significantly. It has been determined that the larger is the diameter of the head of the pile, the higher is the bearing capacity against the horizontal load, and the bearing capacity against the pullout load is equal to the breakout force of a pile from the soil.

In order to study the vertical bearing behavior of bored piles with breakage defects, a series of methods for simulation of normal piles and broken piles in laboratory was developed and used to investigate the vertical bearing behavior of these piles. The load-settlement curves of normal piles and broken piles were measured and analyzed. The tests revealed that the upper part of a broken pile works alone as a short pile before it contact with the lower part of the pile at the end of the first sudden drop stage.The analysis of the test results showed that the position of the breakage defect has a great influence on the lost in vertical bearing capacity of the pile.

Constructing a bored pile produces a disturbed zone of soil adjacent to the pile, referred to as a “mudcake.” The physical properties of the mudcake are different from those of the surrounding soil. This paper reports research on bored piles in silt, clay, and sandy silt layers in Hangzhou, China. Laboratory tests were performed on samples of in situ soil, mudcake, and mudcake mixed with cement grout. The test results showed that mudcakes have a higher water content, higher void ratio, higher compressibility, lower friction, and lower shear strength than in situ soils. They also showed that mudcake properties could be improved by the addition of cement grout. Mudcakes form a weak, thin layer between a pile and a borehole wall, which can lead to a decrease in bearing capacity and an increase in settlement of the pile. Grouting improves the characteristics of mudcakes remarkably, thereby increasing the bearing capacity of piles, which is demonstrated by the case history in this paper.

The pile foundation is one of the deep foundation types commonly used to support building loads when hard soil layers are deeply located. To determine the ultimate bearing capacity of a pile foundation of the load test results, there are several methods commonly used to interpretation test results such as Davisson method, Mazurkiewich method, Chin method, Buttler Hoy method and De Beer method. The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of soft soil and bakau piles used in the study and to analyze the size of the bearing capacity ultimate of pile foundation that is modeled on a small scale in the laboratory. From the test results of material characteristics of the soil used is organic clay type with medium plasticity with specific gravity 2.75, liquid limit, LL = 50.36% and plasticity index, PI = 13.2%. While the results of testing the characteristics of bakau piles obtained average water content of 21.58%, tensile strength of 18.51 MPa, compressive strength of parallel fiber 23.75 MPa and perpendicular fiber 14.10 MPa, bending strength 106, 22 MPa, and strong split 29.91 MPa. From the result of loading test of the foundation model in the laboratory, it is found that the ultimate bearing capacity of the model without foundation is 41.00 kN with the ultimate settlement of 14.00 mm, the model of the 20 cm long bakau piles foundation is 52.00 kN with the ultimate settlement of 13.00 mm, the foundation model a 30 cm long bakau piles foundation of 54.00 kN with a 10.00 mm ultimate settlement, a 40 cm long bakau piles foundation model of 56.00 kN with an ultimate settlement of 8.50 mm.

High strength concrete and high strength reinforcement technology have been quite mature,but there are still less in practical application of china.CRB550 grade reinforcement is formed by HPB235 reinforcement through cold-working, which strength is much improved,but ductility did not change much. 6 reinforced concrete beams with different stirrups are designed for low cyclic loading test. Contrasting the test results, in the elastic stage, beam with CRB550 stirrups and beam with HPB235 stirrups is very similar in bearing capacity and deformation performance.However, in the elastic-plastic stage, beam with CRB550 stirrups in bearing capacity and deformation performance is better than beam with HPB235 stirrups.Therefore, it is proved that CRB550 reinforcement can replace HPB235 reinforcement as stirrups in RC beams.

Field pull out test results of 500 kV double-circuit line of Luping-Fule are presented in this paper to investigate the uplift bearing behavior of rock-socketed belled short piles. A calculation model of rock-socketed belled short pile has been proposed. During the initial stage of loading test, uplift load is shared by even section and bell of the pile, and the bell continues to bear uplift load after the lateral resistance of even section pile reaches the limit. A different performance has been found on the case of long belled pile. At the ultimate state, the uplift resistance provided by bell accounts for about 54.9% and 34.7% of the total uplift capacity for the 6.0 m long and 7.0 m long piles, respectively. Increasing pile length has been found to noticeably increase the ultimate uplift bearing capacity, while it has less effect on the displacement of pile top. The uplift capacity of even section pile is associated with the shear strength of rock mass around the pile, and the test results demonstrate that the ultimate resistance can be equal to the shear strength. The calculation method proposed in this paper is proven to be able to accurately predict the ultimate uplift bearing capacity of the rock-socketed belled short piles.

Soil investigation has an important role before building a building. The carrying capacity of the soil obtained from the results of soil investigations is very influential on the shape and dimensions of the foundation itself. In the PT.Asahi Forge Indonesia Project, the SPT test data is out of sync with the actual piling results related to embedded pile penetration. The design plan for piles with a length of 7 m based on the N-SPT test turned out that in the field, the piles achieved a bearing capacity at a depth of 9 meters. The final project aims to analyze and compare the carrying capacity of a single pile based on static methods and N-SPT test on the Pile Driving Analyzer. The method used in this research is the study method of laboratory test results and N-SPT. Work steps include; preparation, literature study, data collection, carrying capacity analysis, and comparison of analysis results. The results of the analysis of the carrying capacity of the piles based on the static method by the  (Vijayvergiya & Focht, 1974)  method  amounted to 549,201 kN; The (McClelland, 1974) Method  of 426,292 kN; The U.S Army Corps Method is 459,545 kN and the Tomlinson (1977)  Method is 474,191 kN. While the results of N-SPT were bearing piles bearing capacity with the Mayerhof (1956) method of 738,645 kN and the Schmertmann (1967) Method of 451,327 kN.  Based on these results, the N-SPT test based on the Mayerhof  (1956) Method of 738,645 kN was the closest to the PDA test results of 755,116 kN. The comparison of the results of the analysis between the static test, N-SPT and PDA test is 19: 24: 30. This means that the carrying capacity of the static pile and PDA test has a difference of 37% while between the N-SPT and PDA test has a difference of 20%.

To investigate the mechanical performance of prestressed lightweight aggregate concrete hollow slabs, a symmetric loading test was performed on eight prestressed concrete hollow slabs categorised into four groups based on their variety of coarse aggregate concrete and span, and their respective failure mode, bearing capacity, deformation performance and crack propagation were analysed. Based on the test data, a simulation model was subsequently established to simulate and analyse the test components. The test results showed that the bending process of the prestressed lightweight aggregate concrete hollow slab goes through three stages: elasticity, elasto-plasticity and plasticity. Furthermore, its bearing capacity and failure characteristics are similar to those of a prestressed ordinary concrete hollow slab. Subsequently, we derived a formula for checking the calculation of crack width by introducing a comprehensive influence coefficient of concrete Cm and combining it effectively with the formula in the current code and verified its efficacy. The calculated value of the formula agrees well with the test results, providing a reference for the application of engineering and a supplementary calculation formula for the crack width of lightweight aggregate concrete hollow slabs.
