DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis project was aimed at evaluating and developing design methods for laterally loaded drilled shafts socketed in rock. Five lateral load tests on rock socketed drilled shafts with full range of instrumentation were conducted in Ohio. Detailed instrumentation included the use of vibrating wire strain gages, inclinometers, dial gages, and load cells. P-y curves representing site-specific lateral shaft-rock interaction were deduced from strain data. Field testing included the use of a borehole pressuremeter/dilatometer to obtain measurements that were correlated with rock mass strength and deformation parameters as well as with p-y curves. A comparison was made between the baseline p-y curves deduced from strain data of lateral load tests, the p-y curves predicted by using Reese's interim criterion, and the p-y curves from the pressuremeter tests in rock. A new hyperbolic p-y criterion for rock is proposed based on the field test data and extensive theoretical work. Validation of the proposed p-y criterion of rock was carried out by comparing the predictions of shaft deflections and bending moments using the hyperbolic p-y criterion against actual lateral load tests results. Based on the findings of this study, a complete solution for the design of drilled shafts socketed in rock or intermediate geomaterials under lateral loads is provided.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis document was written as a resource for participants in a short course covering the topic of construction and design of drilled shaft foundations for bridges and other structures. It is the second edition of a Federal Highway Administration workbook on construction and design of drilled shafts. The first edition was written in 1988 (FHWA-SA-HI-88-042). While introductory material from the 1988 edition was retained, the emphasis in this document is on providing relatively comprehensive information for engineers who already have some experience with drilled shaft construction and/or design. The initial chapters cover an overview of the characteristics of drilled shafts, site investigations for drilled shafts (to collect information for both construction and design), and details of drilled shaft construction. These chapters are followed by several chapters on the design of drilled shafts in soil and rock for both axial and lateral loading, with examples. Both allowable stress design and load and resistance factor design principles are addressed. Details of design calculations procedures are provided in the appendices.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis practical handbook of properties for soils and rock contains, in a concise tabular format, the key issues relevant to geotechnical investigations, assessments and designs in common practice. In addition, there are brief notes on the application of the tables. These data tables are compiled for experienced geotechnical professionals who require a reference document to access key information. There is an extensive database of correlations for different applications. The book should provide a useful bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application to practical engineering solutions. The initial chapters deal with the planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and rock properties and some of the more used testing is then covered. Later chapters show the reliability and correlations that are used to convert that data in the interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design. This book is intended primarily for practicing geotechnical engineers working in investigation, assessment and design, but should provide a useful supplement for postgraduate courses.
