Testing apile to failure provides valuable information to the design engineer and is recommendedfor load tests performed prior to the foundation design. Such Testing permits the selectionof both the optimum helical screw foundation and the design D-1143, Standard Test Method for Piles Under Static Axial Compressive load ,latest revision, should be used. This method is applicable to all types of deep foundationsthat function in a manner similar to piles regardless of their method of installation. It doesnot specify a particular method to be used, but rather provides several optional Testing during DesignLoad test results are useful tools for the helical screw foundation designer.
