FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Rock
Mechanics Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council.
Pile foundations provide an effective means of transmitting large concentrated loads through overburden soils
to underlying rock or socketed into rock. Bored cast-in-situ piles has the advantages of increasing the load
carrying capacity by socketing the pile into rock. However the load transfer mechanism or distribution of load
support of socketed pile is still in the development stage and depends upon the substrata condition and the type
of rock modulus of rock, strength and unfavourable condition of rock. The rock material can vary from hard,
fresh bed rock stronger than concrete, to highly weathered rock with properties of hard clay. Rock socketed piles
derive their load carrying capacity from two components’ shearing resistance at the concrete-rock interface
around the vertical cylindrical surface of the socket and end hearing resistance at the pile tip. There are several
factors which control the load carrying capacity of rock socketed pile, like quality and strength of rock, efficiency
of the load transfer mechanisms between the concrete pile and its rock socket.
Construction of such rock socketed piles requires careful choice of method of construction including effective
cleaning of the socket portion. As the techniques for measurements of the rock mass properties of foliated/jointed
rock are not well developed, the mechanisms for side resistance and base resistance in rocks exhibif complex
differences from those relevant to soils. Therefore, a separate standard covering bored cast-in-situ piles socketed
into rock has been formulated for design, construction, and interpretation of test results.
The information from various international practices, designers, executing agencies, construction agencies being
practiced in this country and the technical discussions thereon, including the available literature and considerable
assistance from National Thermal Power Corporation Ltd have assisted in the preparation of this standard. It
has been decided to use the standard as guidelines initially, before adopting this standard as a code of practice.
Technical Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex A.
In reporting the result of a test or analysis made in accordance with this standard, if the final value, observed or
calculated, is to be rounded off, it shall be done in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical
values (revised)‘.
