Abstract:Three drilled shaft foundations (DSFs) were constructed in moderately strong to strong limestone at the Siloam Springs Arkansas Test Site (SSATS). The embedment lengths within the limestone were 3?0, 1?5 and 2?1 m for the DSFs with diameters of 1?2, 1?8 and 1?2 m, respectively. The DSFs were instrumented to facilitate cross-hole sonic logging testing and full scale load testing using bidirectional load cells (BLCs). Lessons learned from construction included the: (1) proper concrete pouring techniques; (2) abi… Show more
