Static heavy load test of over-length drilled pile is carried out by taking prestressed working pile as part of anchor system,the test equipment is set up capable of heavy weight loading. On the basis of in-situ data of test
the bearing behavior and load transmission characteristics are analyzed. There is no obvious failure feature in over-length drilled piles. The vertical load transmission mostly depends on the side friction of pile
and there is an optimal range of depth for side friction. Besides
the bearing capacity of over-length drilled pile will also be influenced by the factors like constructing technologies and soil properties.
