Designing of piles is done so that the load of the superstructure is transferred to the soil strata which are hard and deep. Usually designing of the cast in situ piles is done by analyzing and applying many empirical formulas. Due to the uncertainties in the behavior of sub soils, and the various types of procedures adopted in the construction procedure of a site, piles are tested so that the design load verifies the design load obtained by the static and dynamic design calculation. Various load tests are done on piles of 450mm and 600mm and length of 10m, 15m and 20m. The data collected from the tests is then converted into graphical forms and the results interpreted through load- settlement curves by application of various methods for determination of load bearing capacity of pile.
