Rock level is shallow enough for end bearing pile foundations provide a more economical design. Lateral forces are relatively prominent. In presence of expansive and collapsible soils at the site. Offshore structures Strong uplift forces on shallow foundations due to shallow water table can be partly transmitted to Piles. For structures near flowing water (Bridge abutments, etc.) to avoid the problems due to erosion. 3 1
2 Types of Piles Steel Piles Pipe piles Rolled steel H-section piles Concrete Piles Pre-cast Piles Cast-in-situ Piles Bored-in-situ piles Timber Piles Composite Piles 4 Steel Piles: Facts Usual length: 15 m 60 m Usual Load: 300 kn 100 kn Advantage: Relatively less hassle during installation and easy to achieve cutoff level. High hdi driving i force may be used dfor fast tinstallation Good to penetrate hard strata Load carrying capacity is high Disadvantage: Relatively expensive Noise pollution during installation Corrosion Bend in piles while driving 5 Concrete Piles: Facts Pre-cast Piles: Usual length: 10 m 45 m Usual Load: 7500 kn 8500 kn Cast-in-situ Piles: Usual length: 5 m 15 m Usual Load: 00 kn 500 kn Advantage: Relatively cheap It can be easily combined with concrete superstructure Corrosion resistant It can bear hard driving Disadvantage: Difficult to transport Difficult to achieve desired cutoff 6
3 Types of Piles Based on Their Function and Effect of Installation Piles based on their function End Bearing Piles Friction Piles Compaction Piles Anchor Piles Uplift Piles Effect of Installation Displacement Piles Non-displacement Piles 7 Displacement Piles In loose cohesionless soils Densifies the soil upto a distance of 3.5 times the pile diameter (3.5D) which increases the soil s resistance to shearing The friction angle varies from the pile surface to the limit of compacted soil In dense cohesionless soils The dilatancy effect decreases the friction angle within the zone of influence of displacement pile (3.5D approx.). Displacement piles are not effective in dense sands due to above reason. In cohesive soils Soil is remolded near the displacement piles (.0 D approx.) leading to a decreased value of shearing resistance. Pore-pressure is generated during installation causing lower effective stress and consequently lower shearing resistance. Excess pore-pressure dissipates over the time and soil regains its strength. Example: Driven concrete piles, Timber or Steel piles 8 Non-displacement Piles Due to no displacement during installation, there is no heave in the ground. Cast in-situ piles may be cased or uncased (by removing casing as concreting progresses). They may be provided with reinforcement if economical with their reduced diameter. Enlarged bottom ends (three times pile diameter) may be provided in cohesive soils leading to much larger point bearing capacity. Soil on the sides may soften due to contact with wet concrete or during boring itself. This may lead to loss of its shear strength. Concreting under water may be challenging and may resulting in waisting or necking of concrete in squeezing ground. Example: Bored cast in-situ or pre-cast piles 9 3
4 Load Transfer Mechanism of Piles With the increasing load on a pile initially the resistance is offered by side friction and when the side resistance is fully mobilized to the shear strength of soil, the rest of load is supported by pile end. At certain load the soil at the pile end fails, usually in punching shear, which is defined as the ultimate load capacity of pile. 10 Load Transfer Mechanism of Piles The frictional resistance per unit area at any depth Ultimate skin friction resistance of pile Ultimate point load ΔQz qsz = S. Δz S = perimeter of pile Q su Q = q.

5 Point Load capacity of Pile: Meyerhof s (1976) Method Granular soils: Point bearing capacity of pile increases with depth in sands and reaches its maximum at an embedment ratio L/D = (L/D) cr. Therefore, the point load capacity of pile is * Q = A. q. N < A. q pu p q p ul * q = 0.5 tan P = Atmospheric pressure ul a q φ a (L/D) cr value typically ranges from 15D for loose to medium sand to 0D for dense sands.

ΔL. f su The unit frictional resistance increases with the depth and reaches its maximum at the depth of approximately 15D to 0D, as shown in the adjacent figure. Soil-Pile interface friction angle δ varies from 0.5φ' to 0.8φ.Earth pressure coefficient depends on both soil type and pile installation. sz f = K. σ.tanδ f sz v sl Kσ v L 18 6

Typical values of K from a number of pile tests: Effective vertical stress at the depth of interest Effective confining stress during triaxial test Failure Envelope σ 0 Frictional Resistance of Pile In Clays: α-method Proposed by Tomlinson (1971): f = α. c s u Empirical adhesion factor 1 7

ΔL su u Randolph and Murphy (1985) Sladen (199): f = α. c = σ h.tanδ s u = and σ h κk onc, σ v correction factor for soil disturbance on sides With the above relationships, α can be determined as a function of effective overburden and undrained shear strength. n α = C1 ( σ v cu ) C 1 and n are constants depending on soil properties and type of pile installation Frictional Resistance of Pile In Clays: λ-method Proposed by Vijayvergiya and Focht (197): ( fs ) = λ( σ v + c av u ) Mean undrained shear strength λ varies with the length of embedded pile Ultimate skin friction resistance of pile ( ).. Q = f S L su s av Value of σ v and cu are computed as weighted average over the embedded depth of pile This method usually overpredicts the capacity of piles with embedded length less than 15 m. 3 Frictional Resistance of Pile In Clays: β-method In saturated clays displacement piles induce excess pore pressure near pile surface during installation which eventually dissipates within a month or so. Hence, the frictional resistance of pile may be estimated on the basis of effective stress parameters of clay in a remolded state. f = β. σ = K tan φ. σ s v R v ( 1 sin R ) ( ) K = φ K = 1 sinφ OCR Effective friction angle of remolded clay at certain depth Earth pressure coefficient may be estimated as the earth pressure at rest: R For Normally Consolidated Clay For Over Consolidated Clay Total frictional resistance of pile: Q.. su = fs S ΔL 4 8

10 IS:911 Pile Load Capacity in Cohesionless Soils 8 IS:911 Pile Load Capacity in Cohesionless Soils It seems logical that K value shall be close to the coefficient of earth pressure at rest K o as described in earlier methods. However, type of installation has a major impact on how the earth pressure may vary from K o, as shown in the figure below. Driven Circular Pile Driven Conical Pile Bored Pile Soil movement 9 IS:911 Pile Load Capacity in Cohesionless Soils IS code recommends K-value to be chosen between 1 and for driven piles and 1 and 1.5 for bored piles. However, it is advisable to estimate this value based on the type of construction and fair estimation of the disturbance to soil around pile. Typical values of ratio between K and K o are listed below
