This paper reviewed the literature on pile setup and presented results of dynamic and static load tests on several piles installed in a layered soil profile. A total of forty-three dynamic tests were conducted over a period of five months on four H piles and four closed-ended pipe piles driven into layered soil. Empirical formulas for predicting setup proposed by several researchers were compared with observations. Additionally, some theoretical methods for prediction of evolution of static pile bearing capacity with time were tested against the dynamic pile test results.
