| Summary: | Pile is one of many solutions in foundation engineering practice. Places
such as coastal area of peninsular Malaysia which consists of very deep soft clay
and highly compressible soil, are suitable solution for building supported on pile.
In designing pile, there are 2 important parameters that influence and
affect the pile capacity. They are the base resistance, and skin friction. For this
research, these parameters will be counted in order to compare the different
methods of finding pile capacity.
In this study, three methods in determining pile capacity are used namely
Chin Method, Meyerhof Method and Hiley Formula. These 3 methods will be
compared to locate the differences and advantages and later finding the most
accurate method to determine pile capacity. The pile capacity includes the
ultimate bearing capacity and allowable bearing capacity of the pile |
