Abstract

This study compares the pile capacity predicted from static method and dynamic load test of 13 driven piles from Hua Hin to Prachuabkirikhan track doubling construction project. Undrained shear strength obtained from four SPT-N interpretation equations including Terzaghi (1967), NAVFAC (1986), Stroud (1974), and Pitupakorn (1982) are use in the pile capacity estimation and later compare with dynamic pile load test results.

The study found that equation proposed by NAVFAC (1986) is the most accurate and precise with average bias of 1.05 and the coefficient of variation of 0.19
