Development of an Improved Pile Design Procedure for Single Piles in Clays and Sands. Appendices A to O
The report deals with the prediction of the axial load carrying capacity of single piles in various soil conditions. The purpose is to evaluate thirteen selected prediction methods using a 100 pile data base which was obtained from the Mississippi Highway Department. The selected methods include SPT/Su methods, cone penetrometer methods, a pressuremeter method and a dynamic formula method. Appendices A through 0 are bound in a separate volume. These include pressuremeter data for eight sites, all measured and predicted load-settlement curves, separate plots of predicted versus measured loads for each soil category and for each prediction method, predicted versus measured settlement for each soil category and for each prediction method and plots of risk values versus factor of safety for each predictive method.
