Description

The design of driven piles has drawn significant interest among the researchers in soils, however occasionally addressed in the shale. A trustworthy design methodology for driven piles in shale is yet to be developed due to lacking a high-quality database. Consequently, the conventional static analysis methods developed for soils are used to estimate driven piles' resistances in shale, creating uncertainty in pile design. Moreover, the use of the Wave Equation Analysis Program (WEAP) for estimation of pile capacity is restricted by geomaterial input for shale. Additionally, the WEAP manual does not provide recommendations for the selection of dynamic properties for the analysis of piles. Also, the behavior of piles in shale, pile-shale interaction, and failure mechanism is unknown and yet to be established. Hence, this study aims to develop efficient static analysis methods for estimation of skin friction and end bearing of driven piles in the shale using 49 historical test piles data collected from the Kansas department of transportation (KDOT). Furthermore, the proposed static analysis methods are validated and compared against 23 dynamic test results of independent test pile data. This research recommends damping factors of 0.12 s/ft and 0.107 s/ft for two different input methods while keeping a toe and shaft quake value of 0.1 in for both methods. Moreover, the LRFD resistance factors are proposed for the developed static analysis methods and WEAP to achieve the target safety margin in the design and construction of piles in shale. Finally, using an extensive finite element analysis, the pile-IGM interaction behaviors and failure mechanism are investigated through validating the load-settlement response of the pile with static load test results.
