Predictions of Pile Setup and Its Resistance Factors for South Louisiana
Publication: Deep Foundations and Geotechnical In Situ Testing
Abstract
A growth-rate based model has been briefly introduced to predict pile setup for the south Louisiana clayey soils based on the PDA data collected by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) from the construction of the LA-1 relocation project. This paper presents the development procedures of the rate-based model. Predictability of this model was evaluated by using the dynamic, static, and statnamic testing results, and by comparing it with the conventional Skov-Denver model. In the paper, preliminary work was done to incorporate the pile setup into the regular LRFD method by providing independent resistance factors for the rate-based and the Skov-Dever prediction models, respectively.
