LABORATORY RESEARCH OF TOE RESISTANCE BASED ON STATIC PILE LOAD TESTS IN DIFFERENT SCHEMES
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 28
Abstract
Transfer of axial force from the head of a pile to the surrounding soil by skin friction and toe resistance is still uncertain. The results of the static pile load test are usually presented as settlement curve. This curve can be divided into two components: skin friction curve and toe resistance curve according to the settlement. Laboratory research of pile load test was carried out in two schemes: with skin friction and without skin friction. The study proved that the toe resistance with and without skin friction is not the same. Skin friction influence on toe resistance due to settlement. This phenomenon is not usually taken into account, but very often has a significant impact on axially applied load transfer. In the paper results of laboratory pile load tests id, different schemes were presented<br/><br/>
