Verification of the Feasibility and Load Carrying Capacity of Models of Bored Concrete Piles

Abstract:

This paper explains load tests of models of bored concrete piles. In 2014 an experiment was carried out using testing equipment. The testing equipment was constructed at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, VSB – Technical University of Ostrava. The purpose of the experiment was to test the feasibility and load carrying capacity of bored concrete pile models. During the experiment two models of floating bored concrete piles were loaded. The heel of the first pilot was adjusted, in order to verify only surface friction. The second pile was used to verify side and base resistance. The results of these load tests will be further used for the preparation of calculations and experiments on mixed pile foundations.
