Time Effects on the Axial Compression Bearing Capacity of Piles Driven in Offshore Clays of Persian Gulf – A Case Study

    Abstract:  Nowadays, CPT-based methods are vastly employed for predicting the bearing capacity of offshore piles. Previous experiences have shown that the pile capacity is time-dependent  (setup and relaxation). The time effect on pile-bearing capacity is extremely important and is missing in most CPT-bas...
