Validation of Pile Design Methods for Closed-Ended Driven Pipe Piles
A variety of pile design methods, either soil property-based, or in-situ test-based methods, have been proposed to estimate the ultimate bearing capacity of driven, closed-ended, pipe piles. Yet, due to the limited number of well-documented, high-quality pile load tests, efforts still need to be made to assess the performance of these methods. This paper presents case histories of three carefully-instrumented static load tests, performed in Indiana, U.S., on closed-ended pipe piles driven in multilayered soil. Several property-based and CPT-based pile design methods for both sandy and clayey soils are used to estimate the limit shaft and ultimate base resistances of the test piles. The performance of these design methods is assessed through detailed, layer-by-layer comparison between the estimated resistances and those obtained from pile load test measurements. For the cases considered, the Purdue, ICP, and UWA methods produce the most accurate, reliable, and consistent predictions.
