Several major joint industry research projects have been conducted recently to support offshore jacket and monopile driven pile design, employing advanced pile load testing programmes to answer key research questions. The results have augmented existing pile load testing databases and enhanced understanding of pile behaviour under a wide range of loading modes and in a range of geo-materials, leading to the development of new evidence-based design approaches. This talk will consider key aspects of field-testing experimental design, test execution, data…
