253 Research and development of the Statnamic examination machine for Pails : The preliminary analysis and the basic loading test

Abstract

In the loading test of the pile, it is well known that the static loading test system can obtain the most desirable test result. This test system, however, the equipment becomes a large scale, and it takes a long testing time to obtain a test data. This study has been carried out the research and development of novel loading test system for the pile to obtain a desirable test result by adding a proper spring and damper to the system in order to control a loading time. This paper describes the preliminary analysis and experimental result of loading test.
