Abstract
The results of pile load tests are presented from various sites in stiff fissured clays, with a statistical model of soil response to foundation load. The significance of some deviations in observed pile performance from conditions commonly assumed in design is tested by means of this model. It is shown that the model allows the evaluation of a material response factor for ultimate load design of foundations, and a design example is given.
