Title
Field Tests of Small-Scale Pile Segments in a Soft Clay Deposit under Repeated Axial Loading

American Petroleum Institute

PREFACE

In June 1977, a research proposal entitled, "In-situ Axial Testing of Instrumented Model-Pile Segments," was accepted and funded by the American Petroleum Institute. This project was the third in a series of three research projects sponsored by the A.P.I. The research was entitled, "The Study of Piles under Various Axial Loadings." Work was begun on the project in September 1977, and the experimental work was completed in February 1979. The project was begun under the supervision of Professor Hudson Matlock; Dr. Lymon C. Reese took over supervision responsibility after Professor Matlock left the University of Texas in December 1977.

The authors wish to thank the American Petroleum Institute Coordinating Committee, with special thanks to Mr. Jack Sybert, Chairman, for their help and interest. The authors also wish to thank Dr. Roy E. Olson for his review of the report.

This project could not be possible were it not for the efforts of Bogard and Matlock, who developed the majority of the techniques and equipment used in this project. Their developments served as the basis for all work performed in this project, and the authors gratefully acknowledge their contributions.
