Deep Foundations Overview • 10.7 Driven Piles • Total re-write • 10.8 Drilled Shafts • Re-organized + new & updated content
Service Limit State (10.7.2) • Vertical Displacement • Additional equivalent footing diagrams added • Horizontal Displacement • P-y method for analysis of horizontal displacement now specifically called out • P multipliers for group effects updated and specified • Overall stability
Horizontal Displacement (P-y method) Properties A, E, I Qt P Ht Mt y y y
S P P Original curve Modified curve Pm * P y D P-multiplier (Pm) From Table 10.7.2.4-1
Strength Limit State (10.7.3) • Geotechnical Resistance • Emphasisof pile resistance verification during construction • De-emphasis on use of static analysis methods except for estimation of pile length for contract drawings • Structural Resistance • Axial • Combined bending and axial • Shear • Driven Resistance (10.7.7)
Load Elastic pile compression Settlement Pile top settlement Davidson Method Specified
Dynamic Load Test (PDA) Method & equations are now prescribed
Driving Formulas • FHWA Gates Method • Method & Equation Prescribed • Engineering News Method • Equation Modified to Produce Ultimate Resistance by Removing the Built-in Factor of Safety = 6
Driving Formula Limitations • Design “stresses” must be limited if a driveability analysis is not performed • limiting stresses prescribed • Limited to nominal resistances below 300 tons
Static Analysis Methods • Existing Methods Retained • FHWA Nordland/Thurman Method Added Applicability limited to: - Prediction of pile penetration (used without resistance factors) - Rare case of driving to prescribed penetration or depth (no field determination of pile axial resistance)
Geotechnical Resistance FactorsPile Static Analysis Methods From Table 10.5.5.2.2-1
Table 10.5.5.2.2-2 Relationship between Number of Static Load Tests Conducted per Site and (after Paikowsky, et al., 2004)
Table 10.5.5.2.2-3 Number of Dynamic Tests with Signal Matching Analysis per Site to Be Conducted During Production Pile Driving (after Paikowsky, et al., 2004)
Methods for determining structural resistance • Axial compression • Combined axial and flexure • Shear LRFD Specifications Concrete – Section 5 Steel – Section 6 Wood – Section 8
Drivability Analysis (10.7.7) • Specifically required • Purpose is to verify that the specified pile can be driven: • To the required minimum penetration • To the required ultimate resistance • Using a commonly available hammer • Without exceeding the permissible driving stress • At a reasonable penetration rate

Extreme Event Limit State (10.7.4 ) • New section with limited guidance regarding extreme events (no guidance previously provided)
Piles - Other Considerations • 10.7.5 Corrosion and Deterioration • Moved from section 10.7.1 with no major changes • 10.7.6 Determination of Minimum Pile Penetration • New section combining some of the existing material from section 10.7.1 with additional guidance. • Downdrag provisions extensively modified
Downdrag • New provisions in article 3.11.8 regarding determination of downdrag as a load • Revisions to load factors pending additional analysis/research
10.8 DRILLED SHAFTS • Article re-organized to follow section 10.7 • Most provisions refer back to section 10.7 • Service limit state provisions removed from strength limit state resistance determination • Provisions for resistance determination updated • Detailed procedures for evaluation of combined side friction and end bearing in rock added to commentary
