Long-Term Monitoring of Drag Force on Integral Abutment Piles: Instrumentation and Data Analysis
Large structures such as tall buildings, towers, and bridges transfer their loads to competent soil layers through pile skin friction and/or end bearing. When a pile is installed in a compressible soil layer, it may experience additional skin frictional force called drag force due to excessive soil settlement relative to the pile. This paper reports the results of a comprehensive long-term monitoring program of instrumented bridge piles and adjacent soil to evaluate the development of drag forces along the shafts of three piles. The data collected from the monitoring program are presented and discussed in terms of measured responses with time and load distribution along the pile shafts. The data were used to compute and locate the extent of the drag force for each of the three piles and to determine the end of the consolidation process. In addition, the results were used to examine the unified design method and assess the design codes with respect to drag force.
