Abstract:This manual is intended to provide a technical resource for engineers responsible for the selection and design of drilled shaft foundations for transportation structures. It is used as the reference manual for use with the National Highway Institute (NHI) training course No. 132014 on the subject, as well as the 10th in the series of FHWA Geotechnical Engineering Circulars (GEC). This manual also represents an updated edition of this GEC10 document (FHWA-NHI10-2016) dated May 2010, co-authored by Dan A. Brown, John P. Turner, and Raymond J. Castelli. This manual embraces both construction and design of drilled shafts, and addresses the following topics: applications of drilled shafts for transportation structure foundations; subsurface investigation specific to information required for construction and design of drilled shafts; construction means and methods; overall design process; geotechnical design of drilled shafts for axial and lateral loading; LRFD structure design; field loading tests; construction specifications; inspection and records; non-destructive integrity tests; acceptance and assessment of drilled shafts, remediation of deficient shafts; and cost estimation.
