A Brief Guide to Design of Bored Piles under Axial Compression – A Malaysian Approach Ir. Dr. Gue See Sew, Ir. Tan Yean Chin Ir. Liew Shaw Shong Gue Partners Sdn Bhd, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia ABSTRACT: This paper presents a summary of design methodologies commonly used in Malaysia for bored piles under axial compression. Since in Malaysia the design of bored piles in soil is usually based on the Standard Penetration Tests (SPT), that are extensively carried out at site, the empirical equations correlating the value of the ultimate shaft resistance (fsu) and the ultimate base resistance (fbu) to SPT’N’ values are suggested. The load- transfer method to predict the load-settlement and load distribution of a pile is briefly described. Rock socket piles are also very common where competent founding bedrock is found within the reachable depth. Design approaches for rock socket piles in Malaysia are also presented. 1. Introduction Bored piles are commonly used in Malaysia as foundation to support heavily loaded structures like high-rise buildings and bridges in view of its low noise, low vibration, and flexibility of sizes to suite different loading conditions and subsoil conditions. This paper presents a summary of design methodologies commonly practised in Malaysia for bored piles under axial compression. 2. Geotechnical Capacity of Bored Piles 2.1 Factor of Safety The Factors of Safety (FOS) normally used in static evaluation of bored pile geotechnical capacity are partial FOS on shaft (F ) and base (F ) respectively; and global FOS (F ) on
