1 Lesson 25 Static Pile Load Testing, O-cell, and Statnamic Reference Manual Chapter 18
2 STATIC LOAD TESTING Most accurate method to determine static pile capacity Perform at design or construction stage Axial compression, axial tension, and lateral loading
3 TYPES of LOAD TESTS Axial compression (ASTM D1143) Axial tension (ASTM D3689) Lateral (ASTM D3966)
4 REASONS TO LOAD TEST Develop information for use in the design and/or construction. Confirm the suitability of the pile-soil system to support the pile design load with an appropriate factor of safety. Implement new static or dynamic analysis methods or procedures. LRFD calibration.
5 PREREQUISITES FOR STATIC LOAD TESTS Detailed subsurface information program Well-defined soil stratigraphy Static capacity calculations to select pile type, length, and load test locations
6 DEVELOPING A LOAD TEST PROGRAM Specify required capacity of loading apparatus Specify load cell & spherical bearing plate Specify dial gages with sufficient travel Require dynamic monitoring on load test piles
7 EFFECTIVE USE OF LOAD TESTS (Design Stage) Allows testing of several pile types or lengths to determine most-economical foundation design Confirms driveability Establishes preliminary driving criteria for production piles Release results to bidders lower costs
8 EFFECTIVE USE OF LOAD TESTS (Construction Phase) Confirms the pile design loads are OK and installation procedures are satisfactory Refines estimated pile lengths and establishes pile penetration requirements May be only practicable time for load testing on smaller projects
9 COMPRESSION LOAD TESTS Pile loaded incrementally at pile head Load and pile head movement versus time is recorded Load movement curve is plotted Failure load and corresponding movement are determined Additional instrumentation for load transfer versus depth
10 Static Load Test Basic Mechanism Q 1 +Q 2 +Q 3, etc. Q 1 +Q 2 +Q 3 Q 1 Q 1 +Q 2 Load (Q) Telltale A Movement Telltale B Telltale A Pile Head Telltale B
11 COMPRESSION TEST EQUIPMENT Load applied by jacking against reaction piles and beam or weighted platform, or by direct application Load measured with load cell and jack pressure Use spherical bearing plate Movement measured with LVDTs or dial gages with mirror and wire line as backup

25 FAILURE CRITERIA The commonly used failure criteria are based on the elastic pile compression plus an offset. Davisson Method The elastic compression, Δ, is calculated as follows: Δ = PL / AE Where: P = axial load in kn (kips) L = pile length in mm (in) A = pile cross sectional area in m 2 (in 2 ) E = elastic modulus of the pile material in kpa (ksi)
26 FAILURE CRITERIA (b < 24 in) The recommended offset is based on the pile diameter. In US Units s f = + (0.15 +b/120) In SI Units s f = + ( b) Where: s f = Settlement at failure load in inches (mm) b = Pile diameter or width in inches (mm) = Elastic deformation of total pile length in inches (mm)
27 FAILURE CRITERIA (b > 24 in) The recommended offset is based on the pile diameter. s f = + (b / 30) Where: s f = Settlement at failure load in inches (mm) b = Pile diameter or width in inches (mm) = Elastic deformation of total pile length in inches (mm)

31 QUESTION Would you feel comfortable using a pile that has been tested to geotechnical (plunging) Failure in compression as a production pile? Why? / Why not?
32 LOAD TRANSFER EVALUATIONS Determine relative resistance contributions from shaft and toe. Determine load transfer behavior along shaft (shaft resistance distribution). Confirm, correlate, and calibrate static analyses, WEAP input, CAPWAP soil resistance distributions. Refine dragload magnitudes.

34 Elevation (ft) Elevation, feet (USGS Datum) 605 Calculated Calculated Axial Axial Compression Load Load in Pile, in tons Pile (tons) , , tons / [ 12.3 ft (3.67 ft) ] = 0.36 tsf
35 T-Z CURVES 101 Based on the previous data/graph, we have an idea of load versus depth T-Z Curves show load transfer from one point to another (i.e., pt. 2 to pt. 3) Unit Load Transfer, t t = (Q 2 - Q 3 ) / (π DL) Displacement, z z = (Displ. at top) Σ(ε*ΔL)
36 T-Z CURVES 101 We can now relate the unit skin friction/load transfer to the displacement This allows us to determine loadsettlement relationships
37 Q-Z (or Q-W) CURVES 101 Based on the previous data/graph, we can also address end bearing Q-Z Curves show load transfer at the pile toe End Bearing Pressure, q q = (Q 4 ) / (π r 2 ) Toe Displacement, z z = (Displ. at top) Σ(ε*ΔL)

44 STUDENT EXERCISE #9 (FYI ) An axial compression static load test has been performed and the results must be interpreted to determine if the pile has an ultimate capacity in excess of the required ultimate capacity. The load - movement curve from the static load on a 16 inch square prestressed concrete pile is presented on the following page. The pile has a cross sectional area, A, of 256 in 2 and a length, L, of 100 ft. The concrete compression strength, f'c is 6.0 ksi. The pile has a required ultimate pile capacity of 800 kips.
