Factor of Safety (OLD)
All the uncertainty of analysis lumped into one number.
Resistance Factor (NEW)
Statistically based for each component of design.
What is different about
Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD)

Provide pile sizes based on their design
Assumed Driving Condition (6.5.4.2)
• Severe
Provide factored and service loads to
optimize foundation design.
• Old estimated tips for piles based on maximum allowable load instead of specific design load for foundation element.
Bridge Office Information

Tolerances:
• Vertical Deformation • Settlement
• Axial Resistance
• Horizontal Deformation • Settlement
• Lateral Resistance
Service Limit State
![Page 6: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How much design done at service limit?
Spread footings
• Old method controlled for settlement of 1 inch.
• New method - what is tolerable?
Pile bents/footings
• L-pile analysis infrequent for piles.
Drilled shafts
• L-pile analysis routinely performed.

Piles driven into soil
Piles driven to soft rock
• Acts like soil
Piles driven to hard rock
• Loads controlled to reduce damage
• Rock is harder than the pile
Strength Limit State for Piles
![Page 8: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Strength?
![Page 9: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Scour
• Extreme rain events can scour out bridge piers
Downdrag
• Settlement can induce loads in piles
Lateral Loads
• Horizontal forces could bend a pile

Resistance Factors for Driving
![Page 11: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Resistance Factors (cont.)

Old Practice (ASD)
• In-house developed method
• Source data not available
• Not able to come up with resistance factor
New Practice (LRFD)
• AASHTO approved method
• Driven 1.2 is free but no longer updated (has issues)
• In process of purchasing new software
Static Analysis
![Page 13: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What does this tells us?
Driven Output
![Page 14: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Why/when is this needed?
What information is needed?
• Boring Log
• Hammer
• Pile Information
• Type (H-pile, PSC, MS)
• Size
• Physical Properties (fy, f’c, etc.)
• Length
Drivability Analysis
![Page 15: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Seismic
• Not usually an issue for Georgia
Scour
• This is our primary concern due to issues in the past.
Downdrag
• Normally taken care of with consolidation before driving (Design – Bid – Build)
• Load included in pile or other options (Design Build)
Extreme Events
![Page 17: GDOT PowerPoint Template](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042619/589ae4c41a28abf5468bbee5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Rock
• RMR
• No settlement
Soil
• Soil properties
• How much settlement?
Effective footing size?
Spread Footings

Skin friction (soil/IGM)
• Methods are same as before
• Load tests recommended
End bearing (rock)
• Old practice based RQD and old data
• 5th and 6th edition based on RMR
• 7th edition based on GSI
• Load test?
Drilled Shafts
