Different Design Govern (most likely):
Bridges Axial or Lateral Load
Spanned Signs (conventional) Lateral Load
Cantilevered Signs (conventional) Torsional Load
Digital Spanned Signs Lateral or Axial Load

Different Design Considerations/Assumptions:
Bridges may Ignore shaft resistance; particularly for shafts
constructed with slurry. …over-conservative; safer
… not realistic (load transfer mechanism)
Signs Shaft resistance CANNOT be ignored;
particularly, for cantilevered signs.

Different Definitions & Requirements:
“Redundant” or “Non-Redundant”
“Non-redundant member is one for which failure will directly affect the element carried by it with
limited or no ability of other foundations supporting the same element to mitigate the
effect of the failure of the member .“ (NCHRP 507)

“Non-Redundant” Shafts
NCHRP 507 (Paikowsky et al., 2004) • Four or fewer piles per pile cap
AASHTO LRFD, Article 10.5.5.2.4
• A single shaft supporting a bridge pier • Reduce resistance factors by 20%

• Less Stringent for Signs • Seldom Govern for Bridge
• Become Lateral Load Demand when Coupled

Different Analysis for Shaft Subject to Lateral Load
Bridges Require Soil-Pile Interaction Analysis
Utilizing LPILE, FB-Multipier, etc.
Signs Conventional methodology is also acceptable,
such as Broms’ Method, etc.

Different Design Requirements for Shaft subject to Lateral Load
• Tolerable Deflection
• Minimum Pile Penetration / Fixity
(Geotechniacl & Structural Engineers need to communicate.)

Referring to AASHTO LRFD, Article/Commentary 10.7.3.12 … requires reinforcing steel extending a minimum of 10.0 ft. below the plane where the soil provides “Fixity”.
“Fixity”
• Depth to Fixity (C10.7.3.13.4 • Equivalent Pile Length
• “Structural Fixity”
“Depth to Fixity” is ONLY for Structural (Buckling) Stability Evaluation.

Referring to AASHTO LRFD, Article/Commentary 10.7.3.12
… requires minimum pile penetration to reach “Fixity” for resisting the applied Strength Limit State lateral loads (10.7.3.12)
“Fixity” • Pile Fixity
• Point of Fixity • “Geotechnical Fixity”
• Determining the Minimum Pile Penetration by reaching the “Pile Fixity” should be based upon result of soil-structure interaction.
