Load Testing and Performance of Instrumented ACIP Piles in Texas Clays
A series of instrumented pile load tests was performed on augered cast in-place piles in an area northeast of Austin, Texas. The site soils primarily comprised of clays. The load test program included testing various pile diameters and lengths. Ten compression and tension load tests were performed. Five of the test piles were instrumented with internal strain gages at multiple levels. Load test results provided valuable insight on distribution of loads along the pile shaft and at the toe. This paper summarizes the site subsurface conditions, results of the pile load tests, observed load distribution in instrumented piles, and compares back-calculated skin friction and toe resistance factors from the load tests with those commonly used in pile design.
