Abstract:

The rock socket is critical to a drilled shaft

foundation because it lies within a rock stratum

and accounts for much of the capacity of the

foundational unit. Consistency of the rock’s

structure and composition must be identifed

because it can be highly variable.This problem is

acute in Florida, where sand, clay, limestone, and

voids can be layered in highly variable geological

profiles. Unanticipated ground structure below

a site can cause significant construction delays

and disputes. Therefore, more accurate site

characterization is crucial for ensuring reliable

and economic substructure design.
