The development of shaft friction and end bearing for piles in homogeneous and layered soils

This thesis examines the behaviour of a 114.0 mm diameter segmental tubular steel pile jacked into loose sand, and loose sand overlying clay. The soil was placed under controlled conditions in a 3.0 m diameter by 3.0 m deep concrete tank. The variation in local unit shaft friction and radial effecti...
