This work concerns the design of bored piles on the site of Elektrenai Power Plant in Lithuania. Equipment for supporting bored pile foundation in the power plant consists of a gas turbine, a steam turbine and a generator. The foundation not only endures high loads but also sustains a strong dynamic impact due to the vibration of equipment in the power plant under working conditions. A solution to the pilling problem was adopted for the following reasons: i) the insufficient capacity of soil to support acute stresses; ii) high requirements of slab settlements and bearing capacity with regard to the main equipment used in the power plant. The objective of this work is to assess the methods used for estimating immediate settlement and carrying capacity of the pile considering cone penetration tests conducted in Elektrenai power plant. For settlement estimation, four methods, including Bowles (Bowles 1997) and Schmertmann methods (Schmertmann 1978) as well as the methods described in EN 1997-2 and N...
