In Japan, a large bearing capacity is expected for the pile in port structures using a pile foundation as an enlargement of the facility and a change in the type of structure. However, an estimation of the bearing capacity of deeply embedded piles with a large diameter has complex problems such as an increased bearing capacity because of a deep embedment, and the plugging effect is decreased when using large diameter piles. In this study, the double-pipe model pile that was used for measuring inner frictional resistance and the resistance of actual part separately. As a result, the resistance of actual part is greatly affected by plugging effect, and it changes anomalously.
