Abstract

Pile foundations are commonly used in engineering practice to transfer the loads from heavy structures such as high-rise buildings to competent soil strata. In this manner, such complications as unfavorable geological conditions, compressible soil layers, and high levels of groundwater are avoided. Different types of piles are used in construction work. The specific type of pile used depends on the type of loading, the foundation soil, and the location of the groundwater table. The technical progress of large, bored piles and the continuous improvements of construction procedures and piling equipment today have created new possibilities. This paper describes a series of pile load tests that were performed in the capital city of Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan. The control equipment, technological features are important for detailed information about the process of testing and the associated results make them more accurate and reliable.
