Standard Guidelines for the Design and Installation of Pile Foundations provides a guideline for an engineering approach to the design and subsequent installation of pile foundations. The purpose is to furnish a rational basis for this process, taking into account published model building codes and general standards of practice. Topics include: administrative requirements; pile shaft strength requirements: soil–pile interface strength requirements and capacity; design loads; design stresses; construction and layout guidelines for pile design; and installation guidelines for pile construction. This Standard includes information on applicable standards from ASTM, AWPA, and ACI, as well as an appendix on partial factors of safety.
