Large-diameter helical pile capacity – torque correlations
Large-diameter helical piles are utilized increasingly to support heavy structures. Both the magnitude of the required installation torque and the pile capacity can be directly attributed to the soil shearing resistance developed over the embedded area of the pile including the shaft and helical plates. Hence, the pile capacity can be correlated to installation torque. Such correlations are widely used in the helical pile industry as a means for quality control and quality assurance. In the current study, a total of 10 test piles were installed while monitoring the installation torque continuously with depth. The recorded installation torque profiles were demonstrated to be accurate and repeatable. Field pile load tests were conducted and their results were analyzed to determine the interpreted ultimate capacity of the test piles. The results demonstrate that the ultimate capacity of large-diameter helical piles can be interpreted from pile load test data employing the failure criteria proposed by Elkasabgy and El Naggar in 2015 and Fuller and Hoy in 1970. The measured installation torque and corresponding ultimate capacity values were employed to define torque–capacity correlation (K t ) based on embedded pile area. It was demonstrated that the proposed K t is suitable for large-diameter helical piles.
