developing a model to estimate pile setup for individual Soil layers on the basis of piezocone penetration test data
Transportation Research Record, 2016Co-Authors: Nafiul M Haque, Murad Y Abufarsakh, Zhongjie Zhang, Ayman M OkeilAbstract:This paper analyzes the results of 15 instrumented prestressed concrete test piles that were driven in four sites in Louisiana as part of a pile setup study. Static and dynamic load tests were conducted at specific time intervals to quantify the amount of setup after the end of driving. Laboratory and in situ Soil investigations, such as the Piezocone penetration test (PCPT), were conducted at each test pile location to evaluate the Subsurface Soil Condition. Vibrating wire strain gauges were installed in pairs in all instrumented test piles to measure the load transfer and increase in side resistance of individual Soil layers over time. The load test results showed that setup followed a linear logarithmic trend. The unit side resistance, instead of the total pile resistance, was used to measure the logarithmic setup parameter A for individual Soil layers along the pile lengths. Observations from the test results showed that the average A values for clayey and sandy Soil layers for the four tested sites w...
