Synopsis

"Advances in Designing and Testing Deep Foundations" contains 25 papers on designing, constructing, and testing various types of piles and piled rafts. This "Geotechnical Special Publication No. 129" honors the late Professor Michael W. O'Neill, Ph.D., P.E., a distinguished educator and researcher who made significant contributions toward the advancement of the state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice of deep foundations. Professor O'Neill played a critical role in investigating the load transfer mechanisms of various types of piles in soils and rocks and was internationally known for his work on drilled shafts, augered piles, and field testing of various types of piles. This publication is an effective means of sharing the advances in deep foundations with practitioners, researchers, and designers.
