Methodology and ScopeMethodology and Scope
Review & evaluate available load test dataPerform select load tests under carefully controlled and well defined conditions, representative of local areaInvolve local practicing engineers to ensure that the tests are representative and meaningful for local practiceEvaluate test data and develop recommendationsOrganize local seminars to transfer research into practice and share local experiences

Test Plan for NashvilleTest Plan for Nashville
Select site with appropriate geologic characteristicsPerform two O-cell tests, with machine-only bottom cleaning and less than ideal rock conditionsAdjust dimensions of 2nd test based on results of 1st test

ConclusionsConclusions
Extremely high end bearing available in “imperfect” rock bearing stratumUnit side shear resistance >25ksf in limestone with low RQDMachine base cleaning was sufficient
