Axial Bearing Capacity of Driven Piles

Proper estimation of axial bearing capacity of driven piles plays a significant role in pile design. There are numerous methods for prediction the axial bearing capacity of driven piles such as analytical methods, empirical methods, pile load test, High Strain Dynamic Testing of Piles (HSDPT), and finite element method. This Book gives insight into the aforementioned methods for estimation of pile axial capacity. The book presents a numerical technique for prediction the skin resistance distribution with depth. This book is a useful source for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in Civil and Geotechnical Engineering.
