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.

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.

Pile load tests are normally carried out in accordance with A.S.T.M. or other building code specifications without regard to the actual pile type or soil type. The example quoted indicates that the test procedure may lead to incorrect interpretation of failure and conservative design.
