PILE LOAD TEST HPCL, Visakh ISSUED : 29.12.2008 JOB NO. : 6261 DOC.No. C-001 DHT PROJECT Sheet 8 of 14 9.1 VERTICAL / AXIAL LOAD TEST (COMPRESSION) Load Test shall be performed when concrete has reached its required strength i.e. 28 days strength. The axial compressive loads test should be done as per IS code 2911 part IV (latest revision). 9.1.1 Testing Procedure The LSTK CONTRACTOR shall design the test beams, cross beams, weight, etc. and submit them to TEIL engineer for his approval.

The Kentledge consisting of RSJ or frame capable of providing reaction shall be used. The dead weight to be applied shall be 25% more than the maximum jacking force required. The C.G. of kentledge should be on the axis of the pile and the load applied by the jack should be co-axial with the pile. The dial gauges shall be positioned at equal distances around the piles and normally held by datum bars resting on immovable supports at least 5D (subject to a min. of 1.5m) away from the test piles periphery where D is the pile stem diameter of circular pile or diameter of the circumscribing circle in case of square pile. Settlement shall be recorded with preferably 3 dial gauges of 0.01/ 0.02mm sensitivity for single pile and 4 gauges for group. 9.1.2 Test Load Unless failure occurs first, test pile shall be loaded at a successive incremental load of 20% of the design load.

Settlement readings shall be taken before and after the application of each new load increment and at 2, 4, 6,8,10,15,30,60 minutes and at every 2 hours until application of the next load increment. 2. Each stage of loading in cycle 1 and cycle 2 shall be maintained till the rate of movement of the pile top is not more than 0.1mm per 30 minutes or 0.2mm per one hour or maximum of 2 hours which ever is earlier. 3. Further loading shall then be continued as in (1.) above till one of the following occurs; a) Yield of soil-pile system occurs causing progressive settlement of the pile exceeding a value of one tenth (1/10) of the pile diameter. b) The loading on the pile top equals twice the rated capacity or as specified in the case of a separate test pile and 1.5 times the rated capacity of the pile in case of a working pile. 4. Where yielding of the soil does not occur, the full test load shall be maintained on the pile head for 24 hours or more if necessary and settlement readings shall be observed for every hour during this period. 5. Unloading shall be carried out in the same steps as loading. A minimum of 1 hour shall be allowed to elapse between two successive stages of load decrements in cycle 1 and cycle 2. The final rebound shall be recorded 24 hours after the entire test load has been removed.

The lateral loads test should be done as per IS2911 Part IV 1985. 9.2.1 Testing Procedure Pile Loading Test shall be performed in conformity with IS 2911 Part IV. The test may be carried out by the LSTK contractor by introducing a hydraulic jack of adequate capacity with pressure gauge abutting the pile horizontally and reacting against a suitable system. The reaction shall be suitably obtained from the adjacent pile if it is conducted by jack located between two piles. The full load imposed by the jack shall be taken as the lateral resistance of each pile. Lateral load applied on the pile shall be measured by a calibrated pressure gauge mounted on the jack and supported by the datum bar arrangement. 9.2.2 Test Load Unless failure occurs first, test pile shall be loaded at a successive incremental load of 20% of the design load.
