INTRODUCTION
Ordinary static pile load tests using kentledge or reaction piles are used in India. Owing to
increasing time and cost, particularly with the difficulties associated with transporting static load
testing accessories into congested city centers and the lack of space on many sites, contractors are
seeking an alternative system for pile testing. The tendency is for contractors to use dynamic
techniques in order to supplement ordinary static tests.
Dynamic load test (or PDA test) has become a common pile test procedure for evaluating pile
capacity and pile integrity for the driven and cast-in-situ pile. The derived pile capacity generally
shows satisfactory agreement with the static load carrying capacity (Rausche et al. 1985). The
most attractive advantages are the cost of the test is much cheaper as compared with the cost of
ordinary static load test and the duration of the test is very short. The dynamic test is common for

driven piles mainly because similar driven or hammer used for the pile installation can be used
for the test. As for the cast-in-situ pile especially the large diameter piles, the dynamic test is
relatively less common because extra effort to bring in hammer for the test is required. In
addition, design pile capacity for large diameter cast-in-situ pile is generally large, a very heavy

Long 2007; Basarkar et al. 2011). The results of static and dynamic load tests reported by above
researchers are in good agreement. Exceptional test results were also found for some of the Test
Piles in the mention literatures.
Therefore attempt is made in this study to correlate the results of static and dynamic load tests
on bored piles. The results include load transfer mechanism through pile for dynamic load test,
the load-settlement comparison between static and dynamic load tests.

SUBSOIL CONDITIONS
Sub soil conditions at different Test Piles are described in the following paragraph.
Test pile 1: 0-3m (filled up soil); 3-6m (blackish low plastic silty clay with sand); 6-12
(yellowish low plastic silty clay with sand and gravel); 12-16.5m (yellowish low plastic silty clay
with sand and gravel); 16.5-28.5m (blackish coarse sand with gravel); 28.5-36m (yellowish
plastic silty clay with sand); 36-45m (sand with gravel). Figure 1 summarizes the variation of the
main geotechnical properties of the sub soil with depth at Test Pile 1. Ground water level can be
found at a depth of 5 m below the ground surface.
Test pile 2: 0-1.5m (blackish high plastic clay with sand and gravel); 1.5-3m (yellowish high
plastic clay with sand); 3-6m (yellowish low plastic silty clay with sand and gravel); 6-9m
(yellowish low plastic silty clay with sand and gravel); 9-13.5m (yellowish low plastic silty clay
with sand and gravel); 13.5-15m (blackish silty sand with gravel); 15-18m (yellowish low plastic
silty clay with sand and gravel); 18-30m (yellowish plastic clayey sand with gravel).
Geotechnical parameters for the different sub soil strata are shown in Figure 2. The water table
was at 16.50 m from the natural ground surface.
Test pile 3: 0-7.25m (blackish low plastic silty clay); 7.25-10.25m (blackish medium to
coarse sand); 10.25-18m (coarse sand); 18-24m (yellowish low to high plastic clay with sand);
24-35m (yellow high plastic clay with sand and conglomerate). Figure 3 shows the various
geotechnical properties of the site at Test Pile 3. The water table at this site was found at 5m
below ground level.

TESTING METHODOLOGY
Dynamic load test was carried out using 11 tons hammer with a series of impact starting from
0.5 to 3m. Cushion system consisting of plywood sheets of 50 mm was applied for transferring
impact load to pile top. The displacement after each impact was measured to assess the load
carrying capacity. Two types of sensors namely, strain gauge and accelerometer were installed at
2 times the pile diameter below the top of the pile. Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA) was used for
recording forces and motion after each drop of hammer. The pile load carrying capacity was
analyzed by CASE method. A computer program, CAPWAP was used to compute the pile
capacity in later stage based on the recorded data.
For static load test, kentledge reaction system was used. The load is applied through a
hydraulic jack resting on the kentledge girder. The applied load was measured by load cell. The
load is applied in a series of vertical downward incremental each increment being of about 20
percent of safe load on the pile. Settlement on top of the pile was be recorded with four dial
gauges, each positioned at equal distance around the piles and normally held by datum bars
resting on immovable supports at a distance of three time pile diameter from the edge of the piles.
Test pile1 was cast-in-situ of 1.5 m diameter and 42 m long from ground surface, Test Pile 2
was cat-in-situ of 1m diameter and 25.5 m long form ground surface and Test Pile 3 was 1.5m
diameter, 35.2 m long from ground surface. Typical load test arrangement for dynamic and static
load test is seen in Figure 4 and 5 respectively.

DISCUSSIONS AND RESULTS


Dynamic load test is commonly carried out as an alternative to ordinary static load test owing
to high cost and time consuming of the static load test. Also, pile integrity assessment is an
additional advantage of dynamic load test.
Test Pile 1: Load settlement response of top of the pile measured by dynamic and static pile
tests are plotted in Figure 6. Figure 7 and 8 shows the vertical load and unit friction measured by
the dynamic load test along the pile length. Form the Figure 5, it is seen that, at the initial stage of
load (i.e. upto 0.75 times design load), the settlement measured from static load test is consistent
with settlement predicted by dynamic load test. As the test load increase, the settlement predicted
by dynamic load test is quite less than the settlement measured from static load test.

Test Pile 3: Load settlement graph is plotted for static and dynamic load test for pile 3 in
Figure 12. Test pile 3 was design for 4600 kN load carrying capacity. Form the Figure 12, is
observed that static and dynamic load test correlate well upto 1.3 times design load. Berserker et
al. (2011) reported that the static and dynamic load tests are well compare upto 1.5 times the
design load. Figure 13 and 14 presents the vertical load on the top of the pile and unit friction
measured through dynamic load test.

Likins et al. (2000) reported that the shaft friction could be fully mobilized if the penetration
of pile after each impact is more than 2.5 mm. The pile capacity derived from dynamic load test
for both projects could be underestimated due to very low penetration of piles after each impact.

CONCLUSIONS
This paper discusses the reliability of dynamic tests by comparing the results of dynamic and
static tests on piles from the same site. The following conclusions can be drawn.

 The load settlement behaviour of piles show good agreement with the static load test
when the test load is low. When the test load increase, the dynamic load test may
underestimate the settlement.
 Dynamic load test could play an important role for predicting the pile capacity and pile
integrity provided proper care should be taken in comparison.
 Dynamic load test could be cost effective and also less time consuming for larger
diameter bored pile as compare to static load test.
 From the present study, it is suggested that dynamic test should be calibrated by at least
one static load test for a given project.

ntly the rate effect parameters are derived from a direct comparison of the RLT load-settlement behaviour with that of a static pile test on the
e or an identical pile installed in close proximity. Alternatively, the parameters may have their origin in high strain rate laboratory element
for example Schmuker, 2005 ). Unfortunately, in the former case there is a lack of high quality case study data upon which to confidently
ate effect parameters especially in fine grained soils such as clays or silts. ...
mining rate effect parameters from laboratory element testing is appealing from the point of view of material consistency and control of testing
ns, but, historically, testing has been undertaken at strain rates much lower than those experienced in full scale RLT (Leinenkugel,
eahan et al., 1996;Katti et al., 2003). Rate effect analysis techniques developed on this basis ( Krieg and Goldscheider, 1998; Schmuker,

Comparison Between Dynamic and Static Pile Load Testing


January 2013

Elfatih Ali

Based on experience and extrapolation, it is found that the best way to predict pile behavior is to perform a pile loading test. In this study a
comparison between the static and dynamic load tests results was made to evaluate the ability of the High Strain Dynamic Pile Testing (HSDPT)
using SIMBAT method to estimate the static capacity of bored concrete piles. Four case studies conducted in Red ... [Show full abstract]

Field behaviour geotextile reinforced sand column
February 2014 · Geomechanics and Engineering

Yogendra Tandel · A.K. Desai · C.H. Solanki

Stone columns (or granular column) have been used to increase the load carrying capacity and accelerating consolidation of soft soil. Recently, the
geosynthetic reinforced stone column technique has been developed to improve the load carrying capacity of the stone column. In addition,
reinforcement prevents the lateral squeezing of stone in to surrounding soft soil, helps in easy formation of ... [Show full abstract]

Deformation behaviour of ground improved by reinforced stone columns


June 2012 · Australian Geomechanics Journal

Yogendra Tandel · C.H. Solanki

Stone columns are extensively used for ground improvement for supporting various flexible and rigid structures. However, in very soft soil they
encounter excessive settlement due to inadequate lateral confinement by surrounding soil. Reinforcing the stone column with geosynthetic
enhances the performance of stone columns. The reinforcement makes the column stronger and stiffer. Also lateral ... [Show full abstract]

Stone column is often employed for strengthening of an embankment seated on deep soft clay. But in very soft clay having undrained shear
strength less than or equal to 15 kPa, stone column may not derive adequate load carrying capacity and undergo large lateral deformation due to
inadequate lateral confinement. In such circumstances, reinforcement to individual stone column by geosynthetics ... [Show full abstract]

Laboratory Experimental Analysis on Encapsulated Stone Column


September 2013 · Archives of Civil Engineering

Yogendra Tandel · A.K. Desai · C.H. Solanki

The application of stone column technique for improvement of soft soils has attracted a considerable attention during the last decade. However, in a
very soft soil, the stone columns undergo excessive bulging, because of very low lateral confinement pressure provided by the surrounding soil.
The performance of stone column can be improved by the encapsulation of stone column by geosynthetic, ... [Show full abstract]
