Evaluation of Scale Effects in Load-Displacement Response of Drilled Shafts Based on Field Load Tests
… with site-specific information about the nominal resistance of drilled shaft foundations. The application of load testing in drilled shaft foundations provides insight into the load-displacement behavior which can be used to reduce risk, improve reliability and confirm design assumptions. …

Experimental and numerical study of the rod shear test for determining steel-sand interface behavior
One laboratory technique to determine the unit side resistance of piles is the rod shear test. In a rod shear test a model pile is placed inside a cylindrical soil specimen. A confining pressure is then placed around the specimen/pile assembly and the model pile axially loaded. In some cases rod …
