Abstract
To predict the ultimate limit state of precast driven piles, there are different empirical and analytical approaches available. A simple prediction of the resistance-settlement behavior is so far not possible. During field load tests of precast driven piles, commonly measured quantity is the total load on the pile head. Hence, model tests were performed to separate the skin friction and base resistance on the pile. Based on the statistical analysis of more than 200 static load tests on precast driven steel and concrete piles, a simple approach to predict the resistance-settlement behavior of precast driven piles was derived.
