CALCULATION OF PILES SUBJECTED TO COMPRESSION

CALCULO DEPILOTES A COMPRESION

The author enumerates and analyses the factors which determine the bearing capacity of a pile. Among those are: the permissible settlements; the diameter of the pile and the depth of its point; the method of driving and the material of which the pile is made; the nature of the ground; the time elapsed since driving; the effect of grouping piles. A general description is given of pile failure phenomena. The methods of calculating the bearing capacity are listed, distinguishing between sandy soils (Terzaghi, Skempton, Caquot, Brinch, Harsen, Moretto, Berenzantzev, Koning, Bolomey, Coyle, Sanglerat, Vesic) and clay soils (Skempton, Kerisel, Terzaghi, Meyerhof, seed, Caquot, Tomlinson, Broms, Golder, Moman, O'Neill), and the various methods are compared. /TRRL/
