Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resistance factors were developed in the framework of reliability theory for the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) of driven pile's axial capacity in North Carolina utilizing pile load test data available from the North Carolina Department of Transportation. A total of 140 Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA) data and 35 static load test data were compiled and grouped into different design categories based on four pile types and two geologic regions. Resistance statistics were evaluated for each design category in terms of bias factors. Bayesian updating was employed to improve the statistics of the resistance bias factors, which were derived from a limited number of pile load test data. Load statistics presented in the current AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications were used in the reliability analysis and the calibration of the resistance factors. Reliability analysis of the current NCDOT practice of pile foundation design was performed to evaluate the level of safety and to select the target reliability indices. Resistance factor calibration was performed for the three methods of static pile capacity analysis commonly used in the NCDOT: the Vesic, the Nordlund, and the Meyerhof methods. Two types of First Order Reliability Methods (Mean Value First Order Second Moment method and Advanced First Order Second Moment method) were employed for the reliability analysis and the calibration of the resistance factors. Recommended resistance factors are presented for the three methods of static pile capacity analysis and for seven different design categories of pile types and geologic regions. The resistance factors developed and recommended from this research are specific for the pile foundation design by the three static capacity analysis methods and for the distinct soil type of the geologic regions of North Carolina. The methodology of the resistance factor calibration developed from this research can be applied to the resistance factor calibration for other foundation.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The parameters for load and resistance factor design (LRFD) of driven piles using dynamic methods are presented based on a database of 218 pile cases in Florida. Eight dynamic methods were studied: ENR, modified ENR, FDOT, and Gates driving formulas, Case Analysis with Wave Analysis Program (CAPWAP), Case Method for Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA), Paikowsky's energy method, and Sakai's energy method. It was demonstrated that the modern methods based on wave mechanics, such as CAPWAP, PDA, and Paikowsky's energy methods, are roughly twice as cost effective to reach the target reliability indices of 2.0 to 2.5 (failure probability = 0.62 to 2.5%) as the ENR and modified ENR driving formulas. The Gates formula, when used separately on piles with Davisson capacities smaller or larger than 1779 kN, has an accuracy comparable to the modern methods. The utilizable measured Davisson capacity, defined as ?/? (ratio of resistance/mean capacity) obtained from testing at beginning of redrive (BOR), is only slightly larger than the end of drive (EOD) values. Furthermore, past practice with driving formulas reveals the existence of a large redundancy in pile groups against failure. The latter suggests the use of a lower relatively reliability target index, ?T = 2.0 (pf = 2.5%) for single pile design. Also, the utilizable measured Davisson capacity, ?/?, for all the dynamic methods studied, is quite similar to published values (Lai et al. 1995; Sidi 1985) for static estimates from in situ tests.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Static Analysis methods originally developed for soils are currently used for estimating pile resistances in Intermediate Geomaterials (IGMs), and structural capacity has been considered as the limiting pile capacity on hard rocks. The application of current Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) for piles in IGMs has resulted in relatively high uncertainties in pile resistance estimation during design and the length to which the piles are driven into IGMs during construction. Moreover, the absence of standard criteria to differentiate the geomaterials creates challenges in the design and construction of driven piles in IGMs. The application of a dynamic analysis method using Wave Equation Analysis Program is constrained by geomaterial input for IGMs and rocks. These current challenges have led to conservative pile resistance estimations. Thus, the overall objectives of this study were to determine efficient static analysis methods, dynamic procedures for construction control, pile setup/relaxation, and resistance factors for the estimation of the axial pile resistances in IGMs, ensuring a prescribed level of reliability to meet LRFD philosophy. To accomplish these objectives, classification criteria of geomaterials were first created to establish a standard quantitative delineation between the soils, IGMs, and hard rocks for the design of driven piles. In addition, a catalog of IGM properties was prepared to facilitate the preliminary design of piles in IGMs. Secondly, a new set of design equations were developed and validated for IGMs by utilizing the developed geomaterial classification criteria. Thirdly, wave equation analysis procedures for IGMs were recommended for pile construction control. Fourthly, changes in pile resistances in IGMs with respect to time at an End of Driving and Beginning of Restrike were assessed. Finally, probability based resistance factors were calibrated and recommended based on the efficiency factors for the existing and calibrated static analysis methods. Calibrated static analysis methods were concluded to have higher efficiency factors of 0.61, 0.30, and 0.41 against efficiency factors of 0.28, 0.09, and 0.14 corresponding to existing static analysis methods for shaft resistance estimation in IGMs. Similarly, calibrated static analysis methods were concluded to have higher efficiency factors of 0.24 and 0.48 against efficiency factors of 0.13 and 0.29 corresponding to existing static analysis methods for end bearing estimation in IGMs.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the past two decades the load resistance factor design (LRFD) has been accepted by the American Association for Transportation and Highway Officials (AASHTO) for the design of bridges. This approach is now gaining widespread popularity in the United States for substructure bridge design, including the design of driven pile foundations, as the states calibrate the geotechnical resistance factors for local geological conditions and practices. This study presents the geotechnical resistance factors calibrated for axially driven pile using the first-order reliability method (FORM) for the target reliability index of 2.33 and 3.0 based on 64 end-of-drives (EOD) and 22 beginning-of restrike (BOR) pile driving analyzer (PDA) test data from nine bridge sites in Missouri. Three static pile capacity prediction methods were used, i.e. the Nordlund, Meyerhof and Beta methods. The work investigated the efficiency of each method based on the bias factor, the ratio of the measured to the predicted capacity of the pile, ([lambda] = R[subscript m]/R[subscript p]), the coefficient of variation (COV), and efficiency factor or the ratio of the resistance factor to the bias factor, ([phi]/[lambda]). It verified that the Beta and Nordlund methods provide better predictions than the Meyerhof method. In addition, a comparison of the resistance factor in current AASHTO LRFD with the calibrated resistance factor shows that validating the resistance factors in the AASHTO may result in less reliable design. Finally, the recommended resistance factors for LRFD design are provided for use in Missouri. In addition, further refinement of the developed resistance factors is recommended to improve the resistance factors using large quantity and high quality of data that cover wide areas the glaciated plain and southeast lowland geological regions"--Abstract, leaf iii.

This book was released on 2011-10-12 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most foundation solutions for transportation structures rely on deep foundations, often on pile foundations configured in a way most suitable to the problem at hand. Design of pile foundation solutions can best be pursued by clearly defining limit states and then configuring the piles in such a way as to prevent the attainment of these limit states. The present report develops methods for load and resistance factor design (LRFD) of piles, both nondisplacement and displacement piles, in sand and clay. With the exception of the method for design of displacement piles in sand, all the methods are based on rigorous theoretical mechanics solutions of the pile loading problem. In all cases, the uncertainty of the variables appearing in the problem and of the relationships linking these variables to the resistance calculated using these relationships are carefully assessed. Monte Carlo simulations using these relationships and the associated variabilities allow simulation of resistance minus load distributions and therefore probability of failure. The mean (or nominal) values of the variables can be adjusted so that the probability of failure can be made to match a target probability of failure. Since an infinite number of combinations of these means can be made to lead to the same target probability of failure, we have developed a way to determine the most likely ultimate limit state for a given probability of failure. Once the most likely ultimate limit state is determined, the values of loads and resistances for this limit state can be used, together with the values of the mean (or nominal) loads and resistances to calculate load and resistance factors. The last step in the process involves adjusting the resistance factors so that they are consistent with the load factors specified by AASHTO. Recommended resistance factors are then given together with the design methods for which they were developed.

This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report focuses on the development of a new method of analysis of laterally loaded piles embedded in a multi-layered soil deposit treated as a three-dimensional continuum. Assuming that soil behaves as a linear elastic material, the governing differential equations for the deflection of laterally loaded piles were obtained using energy principles and calculus of variations. The differential equations were solved using both the method of initial parameters and numerical techniques. Soil resistance, pile deflection, slope of the deflected pile, bending moment and shear force can be easily obtained at any depth along the entire pile length. The results of the analysis were in very good agreement with three-dimensional finite element analysis results. The analysis was further extended to account for soil nonlinearity. A few simple constitutive relationships that allow for modulus degradation with increasing strain were incorporated into the analysis. The interaction of piles in groups was also studied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model Uncertainties in Foundation Design is unique in the compilation of the largest and the most diverse load test databases to date, covering many foundation types (shallow foundations, spudcans, driven piles, drilled shafts, rock sockets and helical piles) and a wide range of ground conditions (soil to soft rock). All databases with names prefixed by NUS are available upon request. This book presents a comprehensive evaluation of the model factor mean (bias) and coefficient of variation (COV) for ultimate and serviceability limit state based on these databases. These statistics can be used directly for AASHTO LRFD calibration. Besides load test databases, performance databases for other geo-structures and their model factor statistics are provided. Based on this extensive literature survey, a practical three-tier scheme for classifying the model uncertainty of geo-structures according to the model factor mean and COV is proposed. This empirically grounded scheme can underpin the calibration of resistance factors as a function of the degree of understanding – a concept already adopted in the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code and being considered for the new draft for Eurocode 7 Part 1 (EN 1997-1:202x). The helical pile research in Chapter 7 was recognised by the 2020 ASCE Norman Medal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Red Book" presents a background to conventional foundation analysis and design. The text is not intended to replace the much more comprehensive 'standard' textbooks, but rather to support and augment these in a few important areas, supplying methods applicable to practical cases handled daily by practising engineers and providing the basic soil mechanics background to those methods. It concentrates on the static design for stationary foundation conditions. Although the topic is far from exhaustively treated, it does intend to present most of the basic material needed for a practising engineer involved in routine geotechnical design, as well as provide the tools for an engineering student to approach and solve common geotechnical design problems.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of geotechnical engineering has evolved from Allowable Stress Design (ASD) to Load Factor and Resistance Design (LRFD) which has led to a need to quantify the measures of uncertainty and the level of reliability associated with a project. The measures of uncertainty are quantified by load and resistance factors, while the level of reliability is driven by the amount of risk an owner is willing to take and is quantified by the reliability index. The load factors are defined through structural design codes, but the resistance factors have uncertainties that can be mitigated through reliability based design. The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) have recommended resistance factors that are dependent on the type of load tests conducted and are available as a reference to state agencies. The objective of this study was to improve the AASHTO recommended resistance factors used by the Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department (AHTD), thereby, increasing allowable pile capacity and reducing deep foundation costs. Revised resistance factors for field acceptance based on dynamic testing were established through the analysis of pile load test data where both static and dynamic load testing was conducted. Pile load tests were separated by pile type and soil type. It was important that the load test data analyzed represented soil and geologic conditions similar to those found in Arkansas. The resistance factors determined from this analysis improved AHTD current practice, but indicated that the factors recommended by AASHTO may be unconservative for this region.
