D1143 withdrawn
(OP)
I just heard this news so was wondering if there is another quick load test spec, or if not, what is best?

I believe that is what is going on with D1143 & D3966. It has been a couple of years and I don't quite remember the actual circumstances for these withdrawals. I am sure that dynamic testing is becoming more prevelant but, a load test is the only way to evaluate settlement actual amounts of settlement.
Following is a typical statement for the ASTM rules:
The following list of standards is being balloted for withdraw without replacement. The Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees contain the following provision for
handling overdue standards, Section 10.6.3.1: "If no ballot action is in process to update the standard as of January 1 of the sixth year since its last approval date, a ballot for
withdrawal will be issued automatically by ASTM Headquarters. The overdue standard will be placed on the next available concurrent subcommittee and main committee ballot.
If the standard has not received a new approval date by December 31 of the eighth year since the last approval date, the standard will be withdrawn."
Based on this regulation, these standards are now being concurrently balloted for withdrawal without replacement.

If the issues that prevented it from being rinstated were so terrible, they would have pulled the standard.
The standards are a nice way to create uniformity, but they do not constitute the only way to do something. In reality, it is just a quick way for you to not what way it should be tested. If you want to modify it, then do so - as long as it is noted. If you want to do something different all together, then you get to write it out.

D1143-81(1994)e1 "Standard Test Method for Piles Under Static Axial Compressive Load"
D3966-90(1995) "Standard Test Method for Piles Under Lateral Loads"
D3689-90(1995) "Standard Test Method for Individual Piles Under Static Axial Tensile Load"
were withdrawn without replacement in 2006 and 2005.
Reinstatement of these standards is on the committee's list of work items (WK7052, WK11659, WK11718). However, it is likely that the replacement for D1143 will contain significant changes from the version that was withdrawn. See http:/
