The mechanism of residual force generation in a screw displacement pile: a) phase of soil spreading by the auger, b) phase after the pile is completed and the concrete has hardened.
Figure 4
An example of test result with the presence of initial compressive (residual) force in the pile shaft found due to shaft elongation after unloading (pile no. 6293).
