Funded Activity Summary

Ageing of pile shaft friction in sand. Piles driven in sand are very commonly used to support structures in Australia. Their design, however, is based on pile capacities measured shortly after installation - even though capacities are observed to increase significantly with time. This proposal seeks to develop a methodology through which the effects of time can be incorporated in design and hence lead to cheaper foundation solutions.
