D5780-95(2002) Standard Test Method for Individual Piles in Permafrost Under Static Axial Compressive Load
| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| ASTM | 2002 | 14 |
1.1 This test method covers procedures for testing individual vertical piles to determine response of the pile to static compressive load applied axially to the pile. This test method is applicable to all deep foundation units in permafrost that function in a manner similar to piles regardless of their method of installation. This test method is divided into the following sections:
Note 1Apparatus and procedures designated ‘optional’ are to be required only when included in the project specifications or if not specified, may be used only with the approval of the engineer responsible for the foundation design. The word ‘shall’ indicates a mandatory provision and ‘should’ indicates a recommended or advisory provision. Imperative sentences indicate mandatory provisions. Notes, illustrations, and appendixes included herein are explanatory or advisory.
Note 2This test method does not include the interpretation of test results or the application of test results to foundation design. See Appendix X1 for comments regarding some of the factors influencing the interpretation of test results. A qualified geotechnical engineer should interpret the test results for predicting pile performance and capacity.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The SI units given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific precautionary statements are given in Section 8.
