PREDICTION OF PILE CAPACITY (1989)

The method used for calculating pile capacity is based on the effective stress approach applying beta and Nt-coefficients to determine the shaft and toe resistances. The capacities of the two driven piles, the pipe pile and the H-pile, are assumed to be about equal and amount to 900 KN (100 tons) on the forthcoming third testing occasion.
