As part of the design of an important pile foundation, an extensive testing program has been carried out in order to determine the type and the necessary characteristics of the pile best suited to the site and the structure to be designed. Three types of piles have been tested, i.e. timber piles, a steel H-pile, and a Herkules precast concrete pile. The Herkules and H-piles were equipped with deformation gauges and driven in 10-ft (3-m) increments to a total length of 70 ft (21 m), a loading test being carried out at the end of each increment. Thus, it was possible to determine the variations of the bearing capacity, the point–resistance, and the skin-friction as functions of the embedded pile length.The aim of this paper is to present the technique used and the results obtained.

Finite Element Numerical Simulation

It is a complicated progress of interaction between pile and soil when pile is under both vertical load and horizontal load. This paper analyzes the variation of stress, strain, deformation and deflection of the pile body by finite element numerical simulation of single bored concrete pile under vertical load together with horizontal load. Based on the existing research results, conclusions could be that the vertical load can increase horizontal bearing capacity of the pile in sandy soils, but horizontal bearing capacity of the pile in clayey soils is more complicated. Hope that the simulation can provide some references for the design of pile foundation.

Abstract Redistribution of pile foundation forces under successive loading of its elements was investigated under laboratory conditions. A segment of pile foundation model was taken for use in the case study. Load tests on the pile foundation model segment, without joining its elements (pile and plate, which turns into grillage) and based on different combinations of static loadings were conducted. This proved that the loading of a plate causes skin friction on some length of the pile side surface as well as providing additional loading and settlement. Test results have shown that application of successive elements enables the foundation to carry loads up to 13% higher than in the case of a standard pile foundation loading with the same settlement rates.

Spt Data

The foundation is a construction that continues the burden of the upper structure and passes it on to the soil below it. A bored pile foundation is now an option in working on structures in densely populated areas and tall buildings. The purpose of this study is to calculate and compare the carrying capacity of the bored pile foundation based on N-SPT data with the O 'Neil & Reese, and Reese & Wright methods, while the Loading test data with the interpretation of the Davisson method and the Mazurkiewicz method. The results of calculations based on N-SPT data, the average ultimate carrying capacity of the foundation with the O’neil & Reese method of 1211.61 tons, Reese & Wright of 1235.02 tons. While the Interpretation of Loading test method for Marzukiewicz is 1267.00 tons, Davisson is 850.40 tons, and the carrying capacity of PDA test results is 121.72 tons. From the calculation of the bearing capacity of the consecutive foundation of the smallest is the Davisson method, the O'neil & Reese method, the PDA test method, the Reese & Wright method, and finally the Mazurkiewicz method.

The construction of transportation facilities such as bridges plays an important role in the development of human resources today because more and more road users will use these facilities. The Sikabu Kayu Gadang Bridge has a span of 100 meters with a structure of precast concrete, abutments, pillars and a foundation of concrete and steel piles which inspired the authors to conduct research. In this type of selection, several things need to be considered, such as the load being carried and the location of the hard ground. Based on this, this study aims to analyze the deep foundation that can be applied to the project in the hope of getting more efficient results. Based on the re-planning, the bearing capacity of the foundation permit (Qall) is 1254.98 kN with a diameter of 0.5 m and a depth of 20 m. The permitted bearing capacity of the pile group (Qall) is 12795.46 kN to withstand the loads acting on the superstructure. Bore Pile foundation logitudinal reinforcement = 10 D16 and Bore Pile shear reinforcement = ᴓ 12 – 150 mm.

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.

Definition Of

Helical pile is an invention in pile foundation with a main objective of increasing pile capacity. According to Prasad, et.al (1996), definition of helical pile is a pile foundation that equipped with one or more helix that has a round shape, attached to the shaft with a certain distance between helixes. The aim of this study is to understand the effect of helixes number to the bearing capacity. In this study, empirical model is validated with the static loading test on three different type of helical pile: 1) single shaft, 2) helical pile with the same diameter of helixes and, 3) helical pile with different diameter of helixes on clay soil. The diameter of helixes are 15 cm, 20 cm, and 25 cm with distance between helixes 50 cm. The result shows the bearing capacity increase of single shaft to helical pile 252% - 369%. Moreover, the comparison of bearing capacity between helical pile with the same diameter of helixes and helical pile with different diameter of helixes is explained in this study.
