Resistance factor calculations for LRFD of driven piles based on setup effects

Setup effects, one of a large number of uncertainties in geotechnical engineering, can strongly enhance the bearing capacity (ultimate resistance) of driven piles after initial installation, especially for ultimate shaft resistance. Based on load and resistance factor design (LRFD) principle and the...
