Sustainable slow maintained pile load test
Slow maintained load test is widely used by contractors in Malaysia to ensure the driven pile could accommodate the design load of the structure. Slow maintained load test is a test to determine load-settlement curve and pile capacity for a period of time using conventional load test. Conventional …

Full-Scale Lateral Load Test of a 3x5 Pile Group in Sand
… piles within a pile group influences the lateral load resistance of that group, additional research is needed to better understand trends for large pile groups (greater than three rows) and for groups in sand. A 15-pile group in a 3x5 configuration situated in sand was laterally loaded and data …

Full Scale Static Lateral Load Test of a 9 Pile Group in Sand
… to study the effects of spacing in laterally loaded pile groups and how the pile spacing affects lateral resistance of the piles. In this test a 9-pile group of steel piles was installed in a 3x3 configuration in sand. The piles were spaced from center-to-center at a distance of 5.65 pile …

Feasibility Study Of Evaluating Durability Of Cfrp-strengthened Beams Using In-situ Load Test
… in the region. This paper will evaluate if a load test on one of such bridges, which was retrofitted with CFRP at the girders in the splash-zone and thus was subjected to severe environmental conditions, is a feasible technique to evaluate the actual condition of the CFRP. A 3-dimensional …

Full-Scale-Lateral-Load Test of a 1.2 m Diameter Drilled Shaft in Sand
… interaction models associated with laterally loaded deep foundations have typically been based on load tests involving relatively small diameter foundations. The lateral soil resistance for larger diameter foundations has been assumed to increase linearly with diameter; however, few, if any …

Evaluation and modeling of repeated load test data of asphalt concrete for mechanistic-empirical flexible pavement design
… strain data obtained from the Repeated Load Test (RLT) as an alternative to using DM. In addition, a model to represent the accumulated strain data obtained from the RLT was developed. The accuracy and behavior of the current model and the model developed in this study in representing a …

Characterization of "t-z" model design parameters for augered cast-in-place piles using field load test data
… analysis of static axial compression and tension load test data from a project site along the Missouri River floodplain in northwest Missouri. Data was collected from a total of twelve axial load tests (six compression and six tension) and includes dial gauge readings from the pile heads as well …

Acoustic Emission Techniques and Cyclic Load Testing for Integrity Evaluation of Self-Compacting Normal and Self-Compacting Lightweight Prestressed Concrete Girders
… on the performance and validation of the 24h load test method (24h LT), the cyclic load test method (CLT), and acoustic emission (AE) techniques when used on self-compacting prestressed lightweight and normal weight concrete girders. The current investigation examines data obtained from the …

Seismic performance of an I-girder to inverted-T bent cap bridge connection
… to inverted-T bent cap bridge and a 50% scale test unit was designed in order to investigate the behavior of the girder-to-cap connection region. Additionally, per the request of Caltrans, an improved girder-to-cap connection detail was developed in order to ensure a fully continuous moment …

Load Testing Deteriorated Spans of the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel for Load Rating Recommendations
… Virginia coast has taken its toll on the main load carrying girders. Concrete spalling has exposed prestressing strands within the girders allowing corrosion to spread. Some of the more damaged girders have prestressing strands that have completely severed due to the extensive corrosion. The …

Numerical analysis of test pile data from instrumented large diameter bored piles formed in keuper marl (mercia mudstone)
… work is based on instrumented full-scale pile load tests carried out as part of the design of a major Highway communication project in Cardiff, U.K. This research also forms part of an on-going research programme within the Soil/Structure research unit at the University of Glamorgan. The test …

Calculated versus measured static capacity for two pile types
… thus presenting the opportunity to perform a load test on one of the 50-year old piles at each site and further our knowledge of potential for re-use of existing foundations. A cone penetration test (CPT) and a boring with standard penetration (SPT) were made at each site. The objective of …

Estudo da fadiga de duas misturas de solo-cimento
This research work deals with repeated-load for flexural test and indirect tensile test, for two differents tipes of soil-cement: lateritic soil-cement mixture and saprolitic soil-cement mixture. Fatigue curves, in terms of stress, strain and stress level, were developed for the two stabilized …

Evaluation of Precast Portland Cement Concrete Panels for Airfield Pavement Repairs
… were conducted in a full-scale airfield PCC test section. Results of accelerated testing indicated that precast panels were suitable for airfield repairs, withstanding between 5,000 and 10,000 passes of C-17 aircraft traffic prior to failure. Failure was due to spalling of the transverse …

Verificação experimental de um novo sistema estrutural para pontes de grandes vãos
… bridges and concrete bridges. An ultimate load test on a model of a "beam with hanging effect" was performed, and the results are presented in tables and graphs and are briefly discussed and compared with analytical values. The performed test brought important information on the behaviour …
