Abstract

In this paper, the determination of bearing capacity of bored pile using the SPT number and undrained shear strength is presented. The advantages of this method are simple and always feasible, especially for bridge and pier designing in case of expressway projects constructed on soft soils. The 22TCN 272-05 standard is used to calculate bearing capacity of bored pile including skin friction and end bearing capacities. An applicable form for calculating the bearing capacity of bored pile is made. An example is presented and the applied result is shown.
