CRITICAL DEPTH: HOW IT CAME INTO BEING AND WHY IT DOES NOT EXIST (1995)
This paper discusses the fallacy of the concept of the critical depth. The fallacy is due to neglecting residual loads in full-scale tests and stress-scale effects at model-scales, made measured load distribution appear linear below a certain "critical" depth. ...

AXIAL LOAD TRANSFER FOR PILES IN SAND, III. LOAD TRANSFER FOR PILES IN SAND AND THE CRITICAL DEPTH (1993)
Analysis of the results from static loading tests on 11 m instrumented precast concrete piles. This paper offers conclusions drawn from the analyses of piles with regard to residual load and resistance distribution. A primary result of the analyses indicate ...
