Revisiting the analytical solutions for ultimate bearing capacity of pile embedded in rocks

This paper investigates the validity and shortcomings of the existing analytical solution for the ultimate bearing capacity of a pile embedded in a rock mass using the modified Hoek–Brown failure criterion. Although this criterion is considered a reference value for empirical and numerical calculati...
