I wonder if an ultimate skin friction shall be used for the determination of the minimum pile embeddment against frost heave.
I have seen some soil reports suggest to use factored ultimate resistance skin friction to determine the min. pile embeddment. In this case, a factor of 0.3 will be applied to the ultimate skin friction
