Abstract
This paper aims to study the distribution characteristics of the ratio of measured value and calculated value for ultimate bearing capacity, shaft resistance and tip resistance, and discuss the impact of shaft resistance and tip resistance on ultimate bearing capacity. A new performance function is proposed in terms of the three types of bearing capacity mentioned ahead. Take bored piles and driven piles for example, and the results from analysis indicate that the ratio of the measured value to calculated value of bored piles ranges from 0.75 to 1.45, and mostly is greater than 1.0; The ratio of the measured to predicted bearing capacity of driven piles lies between 0.8 and 1.5, and is larger than the corresponding ratio of bored piles. In addition, the reliability of tip resistance is lager than that of shaft resistance for bored pile, while the reliability of tip resistance is less than that of shaft resistance for driven piles. Meanwhile, the method presented in this paper can offer references to designers for revising and improving the technical code for pile foundations.
