• Description:
  This study presents the current research effort undertaken to identify the top-performed pile-CPT methods for accurately estimating the ultimate capacity of piles driven into Louisiana soils. Statistical analysis, Multidimensional Unfolding (MDU), and reliability analysis criteria were used to investigate the performance of 21 pile-CPT methods. The findings of this study showed that the estimation of top-ranked pile-CPT methods can be used in a combined method to yield an optimized method for estimating ultimate capacity of driven piles.
