Abstract:
An attempt has been made in this paper to compare the theoretical estimation of pile capacity of bored cast in situ piles as per Indian and International Standards. Bored cast in-situ piles resting on soil and rock are considered for capacity assessment comparison. The standards considered for comparison are Indian Standards like IS 2911-Part 1-Sec 2: 2010. IRC 78: 2014, International Standards like AASHTO LRFD Design-2017, API 2A WSD, BS 8004: 2015 & EN 1997: Part 1: 2014. The soil conditions prevailing in Patna and Chennai are considered for the analysis. The end bearing mobilization limits as proposed by various standards and their influence on longer piles in medium to soft ground are discussed.
