| Abstract | The performances of bored, driven and auger press pile
in Bangkok subsoils are evaluated by comparing their skin
frictions of piles embedded in clay, end- b earing resistance
of piles having tips in sand and the settlements based on the
soil-pile Elastic ' s Modulus .
The study of the performance of the auger press pile i s
concentrated on the consequence of the construction
technique. Auger press piling technique performed in clay
seems to yield less effect on the pile capacity, compared to
that performed in the sand . But its effect on settlement
behaviour is clearly shown for both piling in c lay and sand.
The empirical soil mechanics method for the estimation
of the capacities of the three pile types is proposed . Good
correlations are obtained in the predicted failure loads
compared to the capacities obtained from loading tests. |
