Abstract
In this study, the resistance bias factors are calculated to determine the resistance factor of Gravel Compaction Piles which is one of the soft ground improvement methods. In order to calculate resistance bias factors for gravel compaction piles, two ultimate bearing capacities were analyzed. One is the ultimate bearing capacity in 2.54 cm settlement measured using data of the field loading test on 41 piles and the other is the ultimate bearing capacity calculated using the seven equations concerning bulging failure. The results of analysis show that the probability density function of the calculated ultimate bearing capacities has a lognormal distribution. Resistance bias factor and the coefficient of variation for Greenwood equation are 0.91 and 0.38, respectively, and for those of Hughes & Withers are 1.19 and 0.39. The two equations are suitable for calculating resistance factors for LRFD of soil improvement using gravel compaction piles.
