Abstract
In this study, evaluation of load capacity and CPT-load capacity parameters were performed using calibration chamber tests for different types of piles including straight-side and tapered piles. Various soil conditions were considered in the investigation, aiming at establishing design procedure for foundation of electronic transmission tower structures. Test results show that no significant difference of total load capacity from straight-side and tapered piles, while individual components of base and shaft load capacities were quite different. Based on the test results, values of CPT-load capacity correlation parameters for different pile types were analyzed for the evaluation of both base and shaft load capacities.
