Abstract

This article presents the results of static load test performed on 820 mm diameter and 13.5 m long bored piles at the site of a 70 m high monument in the capital city of Nur-Sultan in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Three of these piles were subjected to static, stepwise compressive indentation tests. The results of three vertical static load tests showed that the maximum proof load carried by these piles was 1,477 kN. The associated maximum settlements were 4.62, 5.53 and 5.59 mm. One of the piles was then subjected to static, stepwise increasing tensile loads. A vertical pull-out test was also performed on one of the bored piles. The maximum load for this pile was 686 kN. The corresponding extensional displacement was 2.98 mm. The results of the static load tests are important for understanding of soil-structure interaction for the monument.
