Significance and Use4.1 This test method will provide a relationship betweent
21、ime to failure, creep rate, and displacement to failure forspecific failure loads at specific test temperatures as well as arelationship between creep rate and applied load at specific testtemperatures for loads less than failure loads.4.2 Pile design for specific soil temperatures may be con-trolle
22、d by either limiting long-term stress to below long-termstrength or by limiting allowable settlement over the design lifeof the structure. It is the purpose of this test method to providethe basic information from which the limiting strength orlong-term settlement may be evaluated by geotechnical en
23、gi-neers.4.3 Data derived from pile tests at specific ground tempera-tures that differ from the design temperatures must be correctedto the design temperature by the use of data from additionalpile tests, laboratory soil strength tests, or published correla-tions, if applicable, to provide a suitabl
24、e means of correction.4.4 For driven piles or grouted piles, failure will occur at thepile/soil interface. For slurried piles, failure can occur at eitherthe pile/slurry interface or the slurry/soil interface, dependingon the strength and deformation properties of the slurrymaterial and the adfreeze
25、 bond strength. Location of the failuresurface must be taken into account in the design of the testprogram and in the interpretation of the test results. Dynamicloads must be evaluated separately.5. Installation of Test Pile(s)5.1 Install the test pile according to the procedures andspecifications u
26、sed for the installation of the production piles.NOTE 3Because the pile behavior will be influenced by the soil type,temperature, ice content, and pore water salinity, the engineer must ensurethat adequate information is available for soil/ice conditions at theconstruction site to determine their ef
27、fect on the pile performance (that is,test pile should be installed in the same condition as the productionpilespreferably at the same site).5.2 The design and installation of the test pile shall addressthe effects of end bearing, as opposed to the shear resistance onthe shaft of the pile. Address e
28、nd bearing by measuring itseffect, eliminating its effect, or accounting for its effectanalytically. Measure end bearing by attaching a load cell tothe tip of the pile prior to installation or by attaching a seriesof strain gages along the length of the pile prior to installation.Eliminate end beari
29、ng by attaching a compressible layer to thetip of the pile prior to installation or by providing a voidbeneath the tip of the pile.5.3 Install thermistors or other temperature-measuring de-vices adjacent to the test pile to determine the ground tempera-ture profile adjacent to the pile. Measure grou
30、nd temperature infrozen ground at a minimum of three locations along the lengthof pile; for piles longer than 10 ft (3 m), it is recommended thatground temperatures be measured at 5-ft (1.5-m) depth inter-vals. Install the temperature-measuring devices in contact withthe exterior pile surface; for s
31、lurried piles, installation may beas shown in Fig. 1; for driven piles, installation may be asshown in Fig. 2.5.4 Measure ground temperatures periodically using theinstalled temperature-measuring devices to determine whenfreezeback occurs.5.5 Where freezeback of soils adjacent to the pile is aidedby
32、 the circulation of cold air or liquid coolant, discontinue suchcooling when the measured ground temperatures become equalto the desired ground temperature for the pile test; significantovercooling shall not be permitted to occur. When freezebackof soils adjacent to the test piles is aided by a desi
33、gned coolingsystem, such designed cooling system shall also be applied ina similar manner to all reaction piles to ensure freezeback ofthe reaction piles.5.6 Isolate the surface of the test pile from the surroundingsoil or ice over the depth of the design active layer. This maybe accomplished by usi
34、ng a sleeve or casing. For slurried piles,a greased wrapping or other technique that will essentiallyeliminate the transfer of shear forces between the pile and thesurrounding soil/ice in the design active layer may be used.5.7 Where feasible, excavate the immediate area of the testpile or fill to t
35、he proposed finished grade elevation. Cut off testpiles or build up to the proper grade necessary to permitD 5780 95 (2002)2construction of the load-application apparatus, placement ofthe necessary testing and instrumentation equipment, andobservation of the instrumentation. Where necessary, brace t
36、heunsupported length of the test pile(s) to prevent bucklingwithout influencing the test results.5.8 If the top of the pile has been damaged during installa-tion, remove the damaged portion prior to the test.NOTE 4Consideration should be given to placing insulation on theground surface around the te
37、st pile in order to reduce the variation inground temperatures with time during the testing period. Where used,ground surface insulation should be placed all around the test pile to adistance of 5 ft (1.5 m), two times the depth of thawed soil or one third ofthe installed pile length, whichever is g
38、reater. The effect of insulation atthe surface should be taken into account in the design of production piles,which could be done analytically.5.9 Allow the lateral normal stresses between the pilesurface and the surrounding soil that develop during pileinstallation or freezeback, or both, to dissip
39、ate to a nominallevel prior to pile testing. For purposes of this test method, thedelay time corresponding to the approximate test conditionfrom Table 1 shall be permitted to occur prior to commencingload application to allow for the dissipation of normal stresseson the pile shaft as discussed above
40、.NOTE 5The engineer may direct that delay times other than thoseshown in Table 1 be implemented, based on other completed pile testresults, laboratory test results, or analytical results. Such other timeinterval shall allow for the dissipation of normal stresses developed due topile installation or
41、freezeback, or both, to a level of 1 % or less of theirmaximum value.6. Apparatus for Applying Loads6.1 General:6.1.1 The apparatus for applying compressive loads to thetest pile shall be as described in 6.3, 6.4, or 6.5, or as otherwisespecified and shall be constructed so that the loads are applie
42、dto the central longitudinal axis of the pile to minimize eccentricloading. Subsections 6.3-6.5 are suitable for applying axialloads to individual vertical piles.FIG. 1 Placement of Temperature Measuring Devices for SlurriedTest PileFIG. 2 Potential Placement of Temperature Measuring Devices forDriv

44、5780 95 (2002)3NOTE 6Consideration should be given to providing sufficient clearspace between the pile cap and the ground surface to eliminate any supportof the cap by the soil. A properly constructed steel grillage may serve asan adequate pile cap for testing purposes.6.1.2 For testing an individua
45、l pile, center a steel-bearingplate(s) on the pile and set perpendicular to the longitudinalaxis of the pile. It shall be of sufficient thickness to prevent itfrom bending under the loads involved (but not less than 2 in.(50 mm) thick). The size of the test plate shall be not less thanthe size of th
46、e pile top nor less than the area covered by thebase(s) of the hydraulic jack(s).6.1.3 For tests on precast or cast-in-place concrete piles, setthe test plate, when used, in high-strength quick-setting grout.For tests on individual steel H-piles or pipe piles, weld the testplate to the pile. For tes
47、ts on individual timber piles, the testplate may be set directly on the top of the pile that shall besawed off to provide full bearing of the test plate, or alterna-tively, the test plate may be set in high-strength quick-settinggrout.6.1.4 In 6.3 and 6.4, center the hydraulic jack(s) on the testpla
48、te(s) with a steel-bearing plate of adequate thickness be-tween the top(s) of the jack ram(s) and the bottom(s) of the testbeam(s). If a load cell(s) or equivalent device(s) is to be used,center it on the bearing plate above the ram(s) with anothersteel bearing plate of sufficient thickness between
49、the loadcell(s) or equivalent device(s) and the bottom(s) of the testbeam(s). Bearing plates shall be of sufficient size to accom-modate the jack ram(s) and the load cell(s) or equivalentdevice(s) and properly bear against the bottom(s) of the testbeam(s).6.1.5 In 6.5, a test plate may be used in accordance with theappropriate provisions of 6.1 or, alternatively, the test beam(s)may be set directly on the pile cap or the loading materialapplied directly on the cap. Test beam(s) set directly on the capshall obtain full bearing using high-strength quic
