1 UPDATE ON ISU DRILLED SHAFT LRFD CALIBRATION STUDY Jeramy C. Ashlock, Ph.D. Richard L. Handy Associate Professor
2 Ongoing Drilled Shaft Research Projects 2 1.Verification of LRFD Resistance Factors for Drilled Shafts Using Field Tests PI: Sri Sritharan, Co-PI: Jeramy Ashlock, PhD Student: Philippe Kalmogo Source: Iowa DOT and FHWA SPR 2.Cost-Effective Field Test Methods for LRFD Resistance Factors of Drilled Shafts PI: Jeramy Ashlock, Co-PI: Sri Sritharan, PhD Student: Philippe Kalmogo Source: MTC, Iowa DOT/IHRB, FHWA SPR and USDOT/OST-R TAC Members: Iowa DOT: Ahmad Abu-Hawash, Kyle Frame, Vanessa Goetz, Steve Megivern, Mike Nop, Gary Novey, Brian Worrel FHWA: Chris Cromwell
3 Outline 3 LRFD Calibration Project Resistance factor calibration by other states Current status of IA regional calibration MTC Small Scale Drilled Shaft Load Test Project Motivation Preliminary field test results Abaqus finite element modeling
4 LRFD Calibration Project 4 Project Tasks Task A: Expansion of the DSHAFT database Task B: Site investigation and monitoring of tests Task C: Verification of analysis procedures using new data Task D: Verification and finalization of resistance factors Task E: Products and technology transfer
5 DSHAFT Database 5 Project website: 51 load test datasets from 11 states O-cell and Statnamic tests Construction methods include dry, wet and casing Soil type includes clay, sand, mixed, IGM, and rock 28 data sets were usable in the preliminary calibration 5 additional usable data sets
6 Drilled Shaft Load Test by State 6 CO:7 SD:1 NE:1 NV:1 TN:2 IA:20 IL:2 KY:1 MO:4 KS:5 MN:3
7 Challenges of O-Cell Load Test Results 7 O-cell capacity is typically reached before ultimate shaft or end bearing is fully mobilized Typically only one of side resistance or end bearing reaches ultimate value, but not both The reported equivalent top load-displacement curves do not go past 1-in or 5% diameter displacement criterion Unit side shear vs. average shear zone displacement curves do not go beyond 1-in or 5% diameter displacement criterion Result: extrapolation required

11 LRFD Calibration 11 Commonly used Reliability Methods FORM FOSM Monte Carlo Modified version of FOSM used in Phase II project
12 LRFD Calibration 12 Resistance bias (measured resistance/ultimate predicted resistance) required to use the equation on the previous slide Measured resistance considered at 0.25 inch, 0.5 inch, 1 inch, and 5% of Shaft Diameter Predicted ultimate resistance calculated using methods from O Neill & Reese (1999) and Brown et al. (2010) Soil Properties estimated from Bowles (1996) α-method for cohesive soils β-method for cohesionless soils Horvath & Kenney (1979) and Kulhawy et al. (2005) for Rocks Modified α-method for Cohesive IGM
13 LRFD Calibration 13 Histograms of resistance bias Assign a distribution type to the histogram: normal or lognormal? Check that the assumption of a normal or lognormal is indeed appropriate: normal plots, statistical tests such as Anderson Darling Estimate the mean and standard deviation of the distribution

23 Selecting Final Resistance Factors 23 Brown et al. (2010): Comentary in the AASHTO LRFD Specifications (AASHTO, 2007) describes the resistance factors as: developed using either statistical analysis of drilled shaft load tests combined with reliability theory (Paikowsky et al., 2004), fitting to Allowable Stress Design (ASD), or both. When the two approaches resulted in a significantly different resistance factor, engineering judgment was used to establish the final resistance factor, considering the quality and quantity of the available data used in the calibration.
24 Selecting Final Resistance Factors 24 Resistance factors from reliability theory analysis may not always be higher than code recommendations Allen (2005): If the adequacy of the input data is questionable, the final load and resistance factor combination selected should be more heavily weighted toward a level of safety that is consistent with past successful design practice, using the reliability theory results to gain insight as to whether or not past practice is conservative or non-conservative
