Abstract :
This paper and the companion paper, Part II, cover the American Electric Power Company (AEP) pile testing program of 1966 and 1967 in southern Michigan and northern Indiana. These two papers present the results of uplift, compression and lateral load tests on numerous types and sizes of piles. Load versus movement and ultimate capacities of the various types of piles are compared with each other and with calculated expected values. Part I includes the Introduction, Description of Test Sites, Number and Types of Piles and Installation Records, and Description of Test Equipment. See Part II for Test Results and Discussion and for Summary and Conclusions.
