21、, auger cast piles,pressure-injected footings, etc.3.2.2 deep foundation, na relatively slender structuralelement that transmits some or all of the load it supports to soilor rock well below the ground surface, such as a steel pipe pileor concrete drilled shaft.3.2.3 driven pile, na deep foundation
22、unit made of pre-formed material with a predetermined shape and size andtypically installed by impact hammering, vibrating, or pushing.3.2.4 failure load, nfor the purpose of terminating anaxial tensile load test, the test load at which continuing,progressive movement occurs, or at which the total a
23、xialmovement exceeds 15 % of the pile diameter or width, or asspecified by the engineer.3.2.5 telltale rod, nan unstrained metal rod extendedthrough the test pile from a specific point to be used as areference from which to measure the change in the length ofthe loaded pile.3.2.6 wireline, na steel
24、wire mounted with a constanttension force between two supports and used as a reference lineto read a scale indicating movement of the test pile.4. Significance and Use4.1 Field tests provide the most reliable relationship be-tween the axial load applied to a deep foundation and theresulting axial mo
25、vement. Test results may also provideinformation used to assess the distribution of side shearresistance along the pile shaft and the long-term load-deflectionbehavior.Afoundation designer may evaluate the test results todetermine if, after applying an appropriate factor of safety, thepile or pile g
26、roup has an ultimate static capacity and adeflection at service load satisfactory to support a specificfoundation. When performed as part of a multiple-pile testprogram, the designer may also use the results to assess theviability of different piling types and the variability of the testsite.4.2 If
27、feasible, without exceeding the safe structural load onthe pile(s) or pile cap, the maximum load applied should reacha failure load from which the engineer may determine theultimate axial static tensile load capacity of the pile(s). Teststhat achieve a failure load may help the designer improve thee
28、fficiency of the foundation by reducing the piling length,quantity, or size.4.3 If deemed impractical to apply axial test loads to aninclined pile, the engineer may elect to use axial test resultsfrom a nearby vertical pile to evaluate the axial capacity of theinclined pile.NOTE 1The quality of the
29、result produced by these test methods isdependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and thesuitability of the equipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet thecriteria of Practice D 3740 are generally considered capable of competentand objective testing/sampling/inspection/etc. U
30、sers of these test methodsare cautioned that compliance with Practice D 3740 does not in itselfassure reliable results. Reliable results depend on many factors; PracticeD 3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.5. Test Foundation Preparation5.1 Excavate or add fill to the ground su

32、t location. Cut off or build up the test pile(s) as necessaryto permit construction of the load-application apparatus, place-ment of the necessary testing and instrumentation equipment,and observation of the instrumentation. Remove any damagedor unsound material from the pile top as necessary to pro

Carefully inspect these tension mem-bers for any damage that may reduce their tensile capacity.Tension members with a cross-sectional area reduced bycorrosion or damage, or material properties compromised byfatigue, bend
37、ing, or excessive heat, may rupture suddenlyunder load. Do not use brittle materials for tension connections.NOTE 2Deep foundations sometimes include hidden defects that maygo unnoticed prior to static testing. Low strain integrity tests as describedin Test Method D 5882 and ultrasonic crosshole int
38、egrity tests asdescribed in Test Method D 6760 may provide a useful pre-test evaluationof the test foundation.6. Apparatus for Applying and Measuring Loads6.1 General:6.1.1 The apparatus for applying tensile loads to a test pileor pile group shall conform to one of the methods described in6.3-6.6. T
39、he method in 6.3 is recommended. The method in 6.5can develop high tensile loads with relatively low jackingcapacity, but does not perform well for tests to failure or forlarge upward movements.6.1.2 Reaction piles, if used, shall be of sufficient numberand installed so as to safely provide adequate
40、 reaction capacitywithout excessive movement. When using two or more reac-tion piles at each end of the test beam(s), cap them withreaction beams (Fig. 1). Locate reaction piles so that resultanttest beam load supported by them acts at the center of thereaction pile group. Cribbing, if used as a rea
41、ction, shall be ofsufficient plan dimensions to transfer the reaction loads to thesoil without settling at a rate that would prevent maintainingthe applied loads.6.1.3 Cut off or build up reaction piles as necessary to placethe reaction or test beam(s). Remove any damaged or unsoundmaterial from the
42、 top of the reaction piles, and provide asmooth bearing surface parallel to the reaction or test beam(s).To minimize stress concentrations due to minor surface irregu-larities, set steel bearing plates on the top of precast orcast-in-place concrete reaction piles in a thin layer of quick-setting, no
43、n-shrink grout, less than 6 mm (0.25 in.) thick andhaving a compressive strength greater than the reaction pile atthe time of the test. For steel reaction piles, weld a bearingplate to each pile, or weld the cap or test beam(s) directly toeach pile. For timber reaction piles, set the bearing plate(s
44、)directly on the cleanly cut top of the pile, or in grout asdescribed for concrete piles.6.1.4 Provide a clear distance between the test pile(s) andthe reaction piles or cribbing of at least five times themaximum diameter of the largest test or reaction pile(s), butnot less than 2.5 m (8 ft). The en
45、gineer may increase ordecrease this minimum clear distance based on factors such asthe type and depth of reaction, soil conditions, and magnitudeof loads so that reaction forces do not significantly effect thetest results.NOTE 3Excessive vibrations during reaction pile installation in non-cohesive s
46、oils may affect test results. Reaction piles that penetrate deeperthan the test pile may affect test results. Install the anchor piles nearest thetest pile first to help reduce installation effects.6.1.5 Each jack shall include a lubricated hemisphericalbearing or similar device to minimize lateral
47、loading of the pileor pile group. The hemispherical bearing(s) should include alocking mechanism for safe handling and setup.6.1.6 Provide bearing stiffeners as needed between theflanges of test and reaction beams.6.1.7 Provide steel bearing plates to spread the load to andbetween the jack(s), load
48、cell(s), hemispherical bearing(s), testbeam(s), reaction beam(s), and reaction pile(s). Unless other-wise specified by the engineer, the size of the bearing platesshall be not less than the outer perimeter of the jack(s), loadcell(s), or hemispherical bearing(s), nor less than the totalwidth of the
49、test beam(s), reaction beam(s), reaction piles so asto provide full bearing and distribution of the load. Bearingplates supporting the jack(s), test beam(s), or reaction beamson timber or concrete cribbing shall have an area adequate forsafe bearing on the cribbing.6.1.8 Unless otherwise specified, where using steel bearingplates, provide a total plate thickness adequate to spread thebearing load between the outer perimeters of loaded surfaces ata maximum angle of 45 degrees to the loaded axis. For centerhole jacks and center hole load cells, also provide steel platesadequa
