About this document
Reliability-Based Design of Pile Foundations by RatulKumarMajumdar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes a study on developing resistance factors for reliability-based design of pile foundations considering both parameter and model uncertainties. It first presents a deterministic model for predicting pile capacity based on SPT blow count N. It then characterizes the parameter uncertainty in N through analysis of pile load test data. While parameter uncertainty alone cannot explain differences between predicted and measured capacities, the need to characterize additional model uncertaint
