Design of pile foundation of a project in Guizhou Province

The selection of bearing capacity values of a project in shallow rock foundation in Guizhou Province is introduced. The deep plate load tests and the rock foundation static load tests are comparatively analyzed. The results show that the deformation modulus of the strong weathered rock increases with the increase of the buried depth. Different bearing capacity behaviors of the pile foundation and shallow foundation should be considered in engineering practices to enhance the bearing capacity of foundations.
