Pile end bearing capacity in rock mass using cavity expansion theory
Much empiricism is involved in design of rock-socketed piles in rock masses. In light of this, an analytical solution based on the cavity expansion theory is proposed for calculating the ultimate bearing capacity at the tip of a pile embedded in rock masses obeying the Hoek-Brown failure criterion....
