Abstract:

The Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation has·

developed and implemented a "quick-load" method for load testing

piling and drilled shafts. Using this method a load test can be

completed in a relatively short time of one to two hours. On small

projects where the time consuming AASHTO test cannot be economically

justified, use of this test makes i:t feasible to use full-scale

load tests to verify foundation designs on these jobs.

The purpose of the information presented herein is to assist highway

engineers in understanding, using, and applying quick-load test

methods. Additionally it will provide them with the information

necessary to prepare specification~ and cost estimates for quick-load

testing.
