SHAFT ADHESION ON BORED AND CAST-IN-SITU PILES. PROCEEDINGS OF THE ELEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOIL MECHANICS AND FOUNDATION ENGINEERING, SAN FRANCISCO, 12-16 AUGUST 1985

Laboratory scale tests at realistic stress levels have simulated various methods of construction of bored and cast-in-situ piles in normally and overconsolidated clays. After construction pile elements have been load tested. Stress changes have been monitored at all stages. Results indicate that the shaft adhesion may be predicted using an effective stress method by assuming earth pressure at rest conditions exist and that adhesion is governed by the drained residual angle of shearing resistance of the clay, as measured in a ring shear test. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 287689. (Author/TRRL)
