The Ultimate Load on Pile Foundations

John H. Griffith

Introduction

—In one of his discussions as to the ultimate bearing power of pile foundations, the late E. Sherman Gould, M. Am. Soc. C. E., stated that the theories of Goodrich had mathematically exhausted the subject, referring, of course, to a dynamic analysis. It is interesting, therefore, to note an entire departure from the usual procedure in a treatment proposed by Desmond* in which he studies a concrete pile purely by static methods.
