What is Pile Adhesion in Clay Soils Analysis about?
This paper analyzes loading test data on piles driven into clay soils, revealing that the percentage adhesion decreases from approximately 100% in very soft clays to 20% in very stiff clays. The loss of adhesion is attributed to a partial gap between the pile and the soil, rather than remolding effects. The study suggests that tapered piles may exhibit higher adhesion percentages compared to straight-sided piles.
