Hello,

I am looking for information regarding the structural design of deep foundations (Auger Cast Piles and driven piles).

Anyone knows a good reference (book or manual) that can provide in detail this kind of information?

Please let me know.

Thanks

Auger cast are a proprietory system and you can get good information by doing a search on the internet. The manufacturers of them are quite helpful, too. As far as driven piles, there are hundreds of good books that have information on design. But you're not going to learn pile design by buying a book. You need to get recommendations from a geotechnical engineer and even then, the final design is determined by test piles.
And the structural design of these systems are integral with the geotechnical conditions.
