Some of the key findings<br />
‣ The results confirm a significant ageing effect.<br />
‣ For piles in clay the effect reduces with increasing<br />
plasticity index and OCR of the clay.<br />
‣ For piles in sand the ageing effect seems in general<br />
to be even larger than in clay! The capacity may<br />
double over a two year period.<br />
‣ Repeated load testing on the same pile gives an<br />
incorrect picture of ageing effects.<br />
‣ Still possible to join the JIP – there are more work<br />
and more info that can be extracted from the program<br />
