Abstract
The article presents preliminary attempt to create tri-linear transfer curves for describing pile behaviour under axial loading. Transfer curves would use the parameter measured in dilatometer test, particularly a constrained modulus MDMT. The proposed method is based on concrete rough and smooth interface tests performed in a direct shear apparatus. Based on the obtained mobilization curves, relationships were created between the parameters describing the slope of individual transfer curves and the MDMT modulus. The obtained correlations were used to estimate the capacity of the concrete screw pile subjected to the static load test in tension.
