Master’s Thesis topic is Analysis of Bearing Capacity Establishment Methods for Driven Piles. The aim of the work is to compile different practical and theoretical pile bearing capacity establishment methods, perform analysis of methods based on pile driving formulas and suggest rational and cost-efficient method for pile bearing capacity establishment. In the Thesis explanation of pile types regarding current European Norms is provided depending on installation method and construction material. Different pile bearing capacity establishment methods were divided in indirect and direct methods. Group of indirect bearing capacity establishment methods are based on different soil investigation data. Three direct pile bearing capacity establishment methods are described in the Thesis. Given methods are static load test, dynamic load test and rapid load test. Practical part of the Thesis concentrates on analysis of pile bearing capacity establishment methods based on pile driving formulas – equations that establish pile bearing capacity considering set per blow and hammer impact energy. From data that included static load and dynamic load test (pile driving formula) measurements of six steel tubular piles two pile driving formulas were analyzed and compared. Thesis consists of 89 pages that includes 6 chapters, 33 figures and 29 tables. |
