Some Loading Tests on Long Pipe Piles
1970
Synopsis Two steel pipe piles of 24 in. dia. were driven, one into granular and the other into cohesive soil, and test loaded in such a manner as to measure separately the skin friction and end-bearing components of the pile capacity. The Paper describes the tests and presents the pertinent geotechnical properties of the subsoil at each test pile. The values of skin friction and end-bearing so determined are reported. The pile driven into the cohesive soil was test loaded at various times after driving to determine any change in pile capacity with time. A feature of the site was the presence of artesian water pressures in the soil. The computed and measured values of pile capacity are compared. The skin friction and end-bearing values determined in the tests are used to estimate the bearing capacity of 60 in. dia. steel pipe piles to be driven at the site. Deux pieux en tuyaux d'acier de 609,6 mm de diametre furent enfonces, l'un dans un sol granulaire et l'autre dans un sol coherent, et furent soumis a d...
