Abstract:The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and
most state departments of transportation have
adopted the Load and Resistance Factor (LRFD)
approach to design. Critical to the design of
piles in this approach is the development of a
resistance factor, Φ. LRFD allows a number of
approaches to calculate this resistance factor,
depending on the most significant aspect of the
construction. However, resistance factors cannot
be adequately predicted a priori, and data from
field testing at the site are required to guide the
calculations.
