“…The Chin-Kondner Extrapolation, Hansen (1963), and the Log-Log methods gave high estimates of the value for an ultimate load capacity of the pile. On the other hand, the Terzaghi method was adopted to estimate the ultimate pile capacity because it's an easy method, whereas the ultimate capacity of the pile is the value of the load corresponding to the settlement of its value about 10% from the pile diameter [13]. A laboratory model was used to investigate the ultimate pile capacity of the pile installation in gypseous soil.…”

The pile’s ultimate capacity or failure load must be computed by some criteria using load-settlement curve data gathered during the pile load test. Many scholars have proposed several approaches for evaluating the pile’s ultimate capacity in the past. This study compared different failure criteria to predict the ultimate load capacity for piles with two different lengths-to-diameter ratios embedded in gypseous soil with gypsum content of 60% under soaked and unsoaked conditions. Two types of piles were used. Floating pile and end-bearing pile. Davisson, Brinch Hansen’s 80 percent, Chin-Kondner, Mazurkiewicz’s, and Brinch Hansen’s 90 methods that were used in this study predict a higher value of the ultimate pile capacity, whereas the Decourt Extrapolation method gave fluctuated value. Fuller and Hoy’s, Butler and Hoy’s methods give far away value from realistic. On the other hand, Shen’s, ASTM, Terzaghi, and DeBeer’s methods predicted an acceptable and realistic value. The failure criterion of (15%D) where (D) is pile diameter according to(ASTM D-1143) was adopted in this type of soil.
