On the basis of load tests undertaken during the course of major projects, it has been established, that drilled shafts show particular behaviour with respect to skin friction in Cyprus alluvial formations. In general, skin friction and pile capacity as determined ...

Since its introduction in 1973, the Davisson Offset Limit has been widely used in the United States for interpretation of axial compressive load tests on pile foundations and is one of three methods explicitly accepted by the 2006 International Building Code. ...

The results of the test pile program established driving criteria for production piles that included end of- drive blow counts and pile tip elevations with an appropriate allowance for setup. The program also confirmed that the planned installation equipment ...

This paper summarizes a series of never-before reported axial compression load tests conducted on single micropiles that are embedded in or constructed on rock. These data are augmented by load tests on similar micropiles that have been reported by others. ...
