ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

The work presented here is the fruit of considerable amount of work done by the authors and others who have worked on

LRFD development at Purdue University. Discussions with Prof. Mônica Prezzi are appreciated. The material in chapter 4 draws upon work that Dipanjan Basu has assisted with; that assistance is appreciated. Some of the pile design methods for which resistance factors are proposed have not yet appeared in print, but are described in technical reports or are else detailed in the present report. The assistance of JTRP staff and, in particular, INDOT technical staff and the Study Advisory

Committee members, is much appreciated.

JOINT TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH PROGRAM

The Joint Transportation Research Program serves as a vehicle for INDOT collaboration with higher education institutions

and industry in Indiana to facilitate innovation that results in continuous improvement in the planning, design, construction,

operation, management and economic efficiency of the Indiana transportation infrastructure.
