Another pier question
(OP)
Is there a guideline for the aspect ratio of a pier? For example, if I have a 30" diamater pier, how long can it be and still be effective? Thank you.

Piers are those with length/diameter ratios of eqaual to or less than 12.
(see chapter 18)
Piles use skin friction primarily.
Piers use end bearing and/or skin friction.
