Are we a victim of confirmation bias on selection of foundation system?
In psychology and cognitive science, confirmation bias (or confirmatory bias) is a tendency to search for or interpret information in a way that
confirms one's preconceptions, leading to statistical errors.

BEHAVIOUR OF JACK-IN PILES
Rankine Lecture by Prof. Mark Randolph (2003):
•Bored piles – zero residual pressures
•End-bearing can only be mobilised at relatively large displacement

Driven and jacked in piles - significant residual pressures are locked in at the pile base during installation
Higher end-bearing can be mobilised at working load

G&P Geotechnics Sdn Bhd
• Termination criterion of jack to 2 times pile working load and holding time of 30-seconds (two to three cycles) with settlement not exceeding 2mm is satisfactory
• Ultimate pile capacity is a function of jack-in force during pile installation (consistent with other findings, e.g. Deeks et al., 2005)
SUMMARY
![Page 75: Design and Execution of Jack-in Piles in Malaysia (31st ...gnpgeo.com.my/download/Publication/TL (31st August 2015).pdf · DESIGN AND EXECUTION OF JACK-IN PILES IN MALAYSIA One Day](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5aaadbca7f8b9a8b188ea84a/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
G&P Geotechnics Sdn Bhd
• Traditional correlations of skin friction based on driven piles (e.g. fs = 2.5*SPT-N) is too conservative for jack-in piles
• Conservative estimate based on instrumented test results:- Ultimate skin friction, fs ~ 5*SPT-N (expected to be even higher – to be verified with more test results)
SUMMARY
![Page 76: Design and Execution of Jack-in Piles in Malaysia (31st ...gnpgeo.com.my/download/Publication/TL (31st August 2015).pdf · DESIGN AND EXECUTION OF JACK-IN PILES IN MALAYSIA One Day](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5aaadbca7f8b9a8b188ea84a/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

SUMMARY
•Jack-in piles demonstrates higher skin friction possibly due to:
- Less disturbance during installation -friction fatigue phenomenon (e.g. White & Lehane, 2004)
- Locked-in pressure (residual pressure) effect (e.g. Randolph, 2003)

G&P Geotechnics Sdn Bhd
SUMMARY
•Jack-in piles demonstrates stiffer end bearing response
- Consistent with Deeks, White & Bolton (2005):
Stiffness of jacked piles> 2 times stiffness of driven piles> 10 times stiffness of bored piles

End-bearing less stiff compared to behavior observed in granite formation, etc. Possibly due to
behavior of weathered sandstone/siltsone.
End-bearing mobilized still relatively high compared to

• Noticeable differences in jack-in pile behavior between granite/sandy soil vs. metasedimentary formation (sandstone/siltsone) with preboring
• End-bearing response stiffer in granite/sandy soil without preboring
• End-bearing response for jack-in piles in metasedimentary formation still stiffer compared to bored piles and driven piles

• Due to heterogeneous characteristics of metasedimentary formation and effect of preboring, end-bearing resistance highly variable. Conservative assumptions of ultimate end-bearing resistance of 10,000kPa for pile design in metasedimentary formation with preboring– As opposed to granite formation where pile
capacity is a function of jack-in force during pile installation

• Any difference between jack-in pile and driven pile?
• Results indicate shaft friction for jack-in pile higher than driven pile (approximately 2 times higher)
• Possibly affected by bigger prebored zone in driven square piles

• Shaft friction after preboring very low or negligible?
– Shaft friction is a function of original subsoil even after preboring
– For jack-in pile, mobilized shaft friction still significant and fs ranges from 2*SPT-N to 5*SPT-N!

• Jack-in pile can be an economical foundation system for high-rise buildings
• Behaviour of jack-in piles and driven piles different
– Pile length for driven piles would have to be longer to mobilize similar geotechnical capacity due to lower shaft friction and lower base stiffness
– Shaft friction mobilized in granite formation/sandy subsoil for jack-in pile can be conservatively assumed to be 5*SPT-N (likely to be higher subject to further test results)
CONCLUSION
![Page 106: Design and Execution of Jack-in Piles in Malaysia (31st ...gnpgeo.com.my/download/Publication/TL (31st August 2015).pdf · DESIGN AND EXECUTION OF JACK-IN PILES IN MALAYSIA One Day](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5aaadbca7f8b9a8b188ea84a/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)

• For granite formation/sandy subsoil:– Termination criterion of jack to 2 times pile
working load and holding time of 30-seconds (two to three cycles) with settlement not exceeding 2mm is satisfactory
– Ultimate pile capacity is a function of jack-in force during pile installation (consistent with other findings, e.g. Deeks et al., 2005)

• For metasedimentary formation:– Due to heterogeneous characteristics of
metasedimentary formation and effect of preboring, end-bearing resistance highly variable. Geotechnical capacity checks should be carried out with ultimate end-bearing resistance of 10,000kPa
• Significant shaft resistance is still mobilized after preboring for jack-in pile and it is still a function of original subsoil
