Behavior of bored and continuous flight auger piles under horizontal stress

Nesta pesquisa estudou-se o comportamento de estacas tipo escavada e hélice contínua, submetidas a prova de carga estática horizontal. Estes elementos encontram-se instalados no Campo Experimental da Feagri, Unicamp, cujo perfil compõe-se de solo estratificado predominantemente argiloso, porém com comportamento de arenoso. Como objetivo principal, obtiveram-se valores de nh, para um intervalo escolhido e através de valores de deslocamento horizontal e carga aplicada. Além disso, obtiveram-se, para diversos métodos, valores de carga de ruptura e carga admissível horizontal, verificando sua validadeThe behavior of bored and continuous flight auger piles was studied, under static horizontal load. These elements are installed in the Feagri Experimental Field, at the Unicamp campus, with a soil section profile which is predominantly stratified clay, but behaving as sandy soil. The main objective was to obtain values for nh,for a chosen interval and through values of horizontal displacement and applied load. Besides this, for various methods, values were obtained for horizontal loading at rupture and safe loading, verifying their validit
