1. Foreword : The Benoto piling method which the Amagasaki Construction Office of Japan Highway Public Corporation has proposed this time for the use in laying foundations of the bridge piers on the Nagoya-Kobe Expressway may be regarded as one of those examples depicting recent engineering progress. The field test for these peculiar piles was assigned to and carried out by Hazama-Gumi, Ltd. 2. Soil Properties at the Piling Sites : Two sites with different geological properties are selected for the piling test. These are Sonoda and Kukuchi sites, both on the proposed route of the Nagoya-Kobe Expressway. The soil properties are encountered at the testing sites are shown in Fig. 1. 3. Test Program : The field piling test is divided into two namely a performance test and a loading test. This report, however, deals with the loading test only. In planning and carrying out these field tests, similar conventional practices were observed. Descriptions are made in accordance with the sequence of tests performed. (1) Vertical load tests on single pile. (2) Horizontal loading test on single pile. (3) Vertical & horizontal loading test on single pile. (4) Pulling test on single pile. (5) Horizontal load test on pile group. For each of the above listed tests, instruments such as reinforcement meter, earth pressure gauge, strain gauge, thermometer and clinometer are used either singly or jointly as required. To determine displacement, a dial gauge of 1/100 mm was used. Of the above listed tests, the results of items (1) , (2) and (5) alone are outlined in this report. 4. Vertical Loading Test on Single Piles : Inasmuch as the test of single piles carried out in Sonoda district revealed that the settlement was relatively small, the deformation and
