Performance of Earth Retaining Structures and Pile Foundations
In order to develop more effective design methods and also to evaluate construction procedures, it is necessary that realistic measurements of performance of a retaining structure on pile foundations be obtained. The papers in this record are from a symposium that was held to attempt to gain additional exposure for measurement systems now being used and to delineate the abilities and limitations of each. They cover earth pressure measurements, end bearing of piles, downdrag on piles, enlarged-tip piles, lateral load tests, displacements in deep excavations, and field performance. Each paper adds significantly to the state of knowledge concerning performance measurements.
