| Abstract | Osterberg Cell tests were performed on three long, large in strumented bored piles in Mekong Delta River, Vietnam, where a cable - stayed bridge will be constructed. The test piles were construed to 85 to 116 m depth and tested by multi - levels O - cell. All three test pile were meet specific requirement on load - displacement. The ultimate unit skin friction measured by O - cell test are smaller than estimated. Back calculation of the relation ship between ultimate unit skin friction and SPT N value was f s = 1.9 4 N. The base grouting show effectiveness in increase skin friction at the location nearby pile tip and reduce displacement of pile tip |
