Bearing Capacity of Driven Piles Supported on Slightly Compressible Soils

  • Design
  • Published:
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Results of static tests of driven piles supported on neogenic limestones, dense sands, and clays are analyzed. It is noted that, depending on their length and the soil characteristics, driven piles combine within themselves the functional characteristics of both friction and end-bearing piles. Suggestions are presented for refinement of the design of foundations on driven end-bearing piles.
