LRFD Implementation Effects on Geotechnical Investigation and Design
The Minnesota Department of Transportation has successfully implemented the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) method with respect to structural and geotechnical design of transportation structures. The implementation timeline, strategies, and processes are described, highlighting both the major adoption hurdles and the benefits that have been realized to date. In an effort to derive further benefits from the design method, Mn/DOT has a contract underway to develop regionally specific values for resistance factors used in design for driven pile foundations.
