Maintain Load Test for Pile Foundations by Chee Soon Lee is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides details on performing a Maintain Load Test (MLT) on piles to ensure they can support the design load of a structure. The test involves loading a selected pile up to twice its working load and recording the settlement under the load. Prior to testing, the pile head is prepared and load is applied using jacks with reaction from weights or tension piles. Settlements are measured using a reference beam or wire located at least 3m away. The full test load is applied incrementally over time
