Pile Model Tests Using Strain Gauge Technology

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015
Ordinary pile bearing capacity tests are usually carried out to determine the relationship between load and displacement of pile head. The measurement system required in such tests consists of force transducer and three or four displacement gauges.
