IBANEZ MORA, LUIS. NON-DESTRUCTIVE TEST IN PILOTES. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2008, vol.75, n.155, pp.57-61. ISSN 0012-7353.

Experiences using mathematical modeling and non-destructive load testing of pile foundations in docks are presented in order to evaluate their bearing capacity. The results obtained in load tests with more than 200 tons are presented, as well as load distribution for a dock structure and the assessment of its bearing capacity. Comparisons are made between theoretical calculation methods, mathematical models for calculating the bearing capacity of isolated piles, as well as the results obtained from load testing using a real scale.

Keywords : foundation; modeling; pile.
