According to Poulos (1989), the recognition that pile foundations do indeed settle is one of the stimuli for the change that is occurring in pile design procedures, from essentially empirical methods towards methods with a sounder theoretical basis. This paper reports some evidence that seems to support, for the examined conditions, the reliability of a linearly elastic analysis for the evaluation of the settlement of piled foundations on the basis of the results of pile load tests.

Abstract
According to Poulos (1989), the recognition that pile foundations do indeed settle is one of the stimuli for the change that is occurring in pile design procedures, from essentially empirical methods towards methods with a sounder theoretical basis. This paper reports some evidence that seems to support, for the examined conditions, the reliability of a linearly elastic analysis for the evaluation of the settlement of piled foundations on the basis of the results of pile load tests.File in questo prodotto:
