In view of the large movement required to mobilise the base resistance of bored piles and difficulty in base cleaning, the end bearing resistance often ignored in current design practice that will result in excessive rock socket length. Many attempts have been made to correlate the end bearing resistance with the uniaxial compressive strength of intact rock and the RQD but it is uncertain how applicable they are to rock type in Malaysia. This paper attempts to review the applicability of the formulas from previous studies to rock type in Malaysia. A program of field tests for 13 bored piles with diameter varying from 1000 mm to 1500 mm constructed in granite was conducted to measure the axial response of bored piles, tested using static load test and high strain load dynamic test to verify its integrity and performance. The results were evaluated and compared to the predicted rock bearing resistance. Based on the result obtained, the method by AASHTO gives the best prediction of rock bearing resistance for granite in Malaysia. However the relationship between compressive strength and rock discontinuities with the rock bearing resistance showed scattered results

In this study, a micro-mechanical model is developed to study the correlation of the point load index in rocks with uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) tests. The model is represented by an array of bonded particles simulated by a novel discrete based model, which was introduced by the authors previously. The point load test (PLT) is performed in the field on rock samples to classify and estimate the UCS of a rock type via the index-to-strength correlation factor k. Numerical analyses, such as the one presented in this work, will serve to close the knowledge gap concerning the correlation between k, UCS and other material properties of rocks.

Grey linear regression model is a covert grey combined model that is built based on GM(1,1) model and linear regression model. It improves undervaluation of linear regression model which can not in press the exponential growth and come to deficiency of grey GM (1, 1) model which has not linear factor. This paper briefly introduces the establishment and precision examination method of the grey linearity regression model and establishes the grey linear regression model to predict the relationship of load and settlement. Based on the data of static load test, the load-settlement curve is simulated and analyzed. The result of study shows that Grey Linear regression Model can effectively predict the settlement of pile foundation, and be of the theoretical and actual meaning for further analyzing the bearing capability of pile foundation.

A reasonable design strength standard is of great practical significance for reducing pavement diseases. First, the bottom layer tensile stress of the typical pavement structure in the operating period is calculated using computer program BISAR while the overload、the interface link status and construction variability are all considered. And then the bottom layer tensile stresses of the upper and lower base are checked under truck load during construction. According to the relationship between cleavage strength (90d) and unconfined compressive strength (7d), it is deemed that the appropriate design strength standard should be 2.1MPa~3.5MPa. Finally, combined with the results of the unconfined compressive strength of core samples in the field it is proved that the current design standard is a little high.

Contact of concrete with aggressive factors, technological structures, reduces their durability through microstructural changes. This work presents the results of research on determining the influence of post grit chamber sewage and sewage from the active sludge chamber in three different environments, i.e., acidic, neutral, and alkaline, on the structure and compressive strength of concrete. Compressive strength tests were carried out after 11.5 months of concrete cubes being submerged in the solutions and compared. To complete the studies, the photos of the microstructure were done. This made it possible to accentuate the relationship between the microstructure and performance characteristics of concrete. The time of storing the cubes in both acidic environments (sewage from post grit chamber and active sludge chamber) has a negative influence on their compressive strength. The compressive strength of cubes decreases along with the time. Compressive strength of cubes increases with increasing pH of the environment.

Abstract This article shows the mathematical method to determine the lateral stress on the shaft and toe resistance of pile using the new approach. The method was originally invented by Meyer and Kowalow for the static load test. The approximation curve was used for the estimation of both settlement curve and toe resistance curve of the pile. The load applied at the head of the pile is balanced by the sum of two components: the resistance under the toe of the pile and the skin friction. Therefore, the settlement curve is compilation of two factors: the skin friction curve and the resistance under toe curve. The analysis was based on the verification of the methods using laboratory experiments, that is, static load tests. The results of the research allowed to determine the relationship between parameters of the Meyer–Kowalow curve. On the basis of the relationships, it was possible to determine the skin friction and the toe resistance of the pile. Mathematical analysis of curve parameters allowed to determine the influence of the toe resistance on the settlement.

Field test data from three instrumented large diameter bored piles in Pattaya city of Thailand were analyzed to study the behavior of load transfer mechanism from the pile to soil. The pile load test data were obtained from conventional static load test. These bored piles used for conventional static load test have the same diameter of 0.80 m and different length in the range of 25 m to 32 m. Results from back-analysis found that the skin friction resistance, β, has the value between 0.20 and 0.64 and the bearing capacity at end of piles, Nq, which is in the range of 10 to150, is much lower than the theoretical values proposed by other researchers before.

The objective of the current study was to compare results relating to the compressive and tensile strength of rocks obtained during research undertaken according to Polish Standards (as part of the European standards known as Eurocodes), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standards, and the recommendations of the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM). A total of 130 experiments for uniaxial compression on axisymmetric samples, point loads, and transverse compression (so-called Brazilian tests) were performed on rock samples comprising granite, limestone, and sandstone. Geometric properties of the samples were selected depending on the applied research method, and the relationship between the specimen’s slenderness and shape, and the obtained values of compressive and tensile strength, were analyzed. The results of the study showed that values of compressive and tensile strength obtained in a laboratory depend significantly on specimen slenderness, different values of which are imposed by various ISRM standards and recommendations, wherein this sensitivity was much higher in the case of compressive strength. The study also raised doubt about the usefulness of the so-called point load test as a method for determination of the compressive strength of rocks and potential estimation of the tensile strength.

The aim of this paper is to determine the elastic parameters of some rocks and especially limestones, schist, sandstones, conglomerates, peridotites and granites using a large number of laboratory tests performed on intact rock samples. The range of values for Young`s modulus and uniaxial compressive strength is evaluated, while the relationship between elastic and strength parameters is defined. Regression analyses were applied to define relations among these parameters and the range of values of modulus ratio (MR) is estimated for each rock type.
