Six methods to determine axial pile capacity directly based on piezocone penetration test (CPTU) data are presented and evaluated. Analyses and evaluation were conducted on three types piles that were failed during pile load testing. The CPT methods, as well as the CPTU methods, were used to estimate the load carrying capacities of the investigated piles (Qp ). Pile load test were used to determine the measured load carrying capacities (Qm). The pile capacities determined using the different methods were compared with the measured pile capacities obtained from the pile load tests. Two criteria were selected as bases of evaluation: the best fit line for Qp versus Qm and the arithmetic mean and standard deviation for the ratio Qp /Qm. Results of the analyses showed that the best methods for determining pile capacity are the CPTU methods.

The aim of the paper is to discuss a fully instrumented screw pile load test up to failure, in difficult heterogeneous soil conditions along the shaft. The pre-stressing of the pile during its installation process has been brought to attention as an important item to assisting in explaining the differences in pile capacity and load settlement curve on the one hand, and the data as registered from the pile shaft instrumentation. In the second part of the paper, starting info on the registered load settlement data of the foundation slabs of each of the three, closely positioned, oil tanks of 48 m diameter and 19 m of height are shared and briefly analyzed.

Sonic Logging

AbstractQuality of concrete for pile can be checked using Cross-hole Sonic Logging (CSL) Test. A processing method wide-band CSL data is presented herein. First Time Arrival (FTA) is an important consideration. In pile capacity analysis or CSL analysis, it is assumed that pile cross section is uniform with uniform value of elastic modulus of concrete but in real practice both are non-uniform. The procedure identifies the location accuracy and further characterizes the features of the defect. FTA is used to find out the location of the distress in the pile. This method identifies the exact location of any void or defect inside the rebar cage of a drilled shaft. This method provides a significant improvement to current techniques used in quality control during construction of bridges. In this present paper, the analysis has been carried out based on uniform and non-uniform values of pile cross section and E value of concrete. Cross hole sonic and pile load test using O-Cell were carried out on same pile at 7 and 28 days of concreting. Same pipes were used for base grout after cross hole sonic test. These results were used to analyze O-cell test results based on a case study and presented in this paper. The distribution of skin frication and skin friction force has also been presented herein with both uniform and non-uniform cross section and E values of concrete. Based on the field test results and analysis a simplified methodology, has been proposed in this paper, for development of Equivalent Top Down Loading with consideration of elastic shortening of pile and surrounding soil for both cases i.e., uniform and non-uniform E values and pile cross sections.

The maximum load carrying capacity of bored piles is a complex problem because it is a function of a number of factors, these factors include methods of soil exploration, ground water condition, types of grading of concrete, quantity and quality of concrete. The knowledge of Geotechnical test is important for the most economical design of the piles. This paper describes some important aspects of field investigation, design and construction of in-situ bored pile foundation, field pile load test of experience gained from the construction of the pile at a site in Aathoor in Tamil Nadu, India. The site was fully sandy soil from existing ground level. The design of bored pile under axial compression was done using Empirical formula, pile load test and by using PLAXIS 2D software. Results were compared with vertical load and settlement in this site.
