SPR-5036: Development of Direct CPT-Based Pile Design Method

The main deliverable from the project is a direct method for estimating the axial capacity of driven piles from CPT data and a computer program that will enable geotechnical engineers to use it for driven pile design. Extensive data that the geotechnical office has accumulated over the years will be used to develop a method that will work for Indiana soils.
