New Standards for Deep Foundations: A Guide to the GeoSS Pile Foundation Guidelines

Mandatory Local Curve: The guideline demands that each region develop a Local Verified Skin Friction Curve (LV-SFC) , not a generic beta or alpha method.
Verification Threshold: A local design method (e.g., "Using the Meyerhof method with a coefficient of 0.35 for driven piles in local sands") is considered verified only if the predicted capacity falls within ±15% of measured SLT results for 90% of a representative sample of 30+ piles.

In the context of technical papers, "Verified" usually implies: New Standards for Deep Foundations: A Guide to
