TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a consistent theoretical approach to the prediction of pile deformation and load capacity, and present parametric solutions for a wide range of cases, demonstrating how such solutions can be used for design purposes, and review the applicability of these approaches to practical problems.
Abstract: This book deals with methods of analysis that may be useful in design of pile foundations. The aims are to: 1) present a consistent theoretical approach to the prediction of pile deformation and load capacity, 2) present parametric solutions for a wide range of cases, 3) demonstrate how such solutions can be used for design purposes, and 4) review the applicability of these approaches to practical problems.

TL;DR: In this paper, a modern outlook of the problem of bearing capacity of shallow foundations is presented, incorporating all major contributions to the subject, along with best available solutions and appropriate numerical values of bearing capacities and coefficients.
Abstract: The paper presents a modern outlook of the problem of bearing capacity of shallow foundations, incorporating all major contributions to the subject, along with best available solutions and appropriate numerical values of bearing capacity factors and coefficients. It is shown that the greatest shortcoming of available theories lies in their unreserved assumption of incompressibility of the foundation soil. An attempt is made to formulate for the first time rational compressibility criteria for soils subjected to foundation loads. A set of tentative compressibility factors, to be used with the classical bearing capacity equation, are given. The paper includes an analysis of the effects on bearing capacity of roughness and vertical profile of foundation base, ground-water table, presence of adjacent footings and rate of loading.
