Many advanced pile technologies are appearing today. Unfortunately,<br>Kazakhstan Standards have not a recommendation for modern pile design, testing and quality control<br>methods. This paper presents methodic of the testing pile by ASTM D8169 (USA) standard and the State<br>Standard 5686-94 (Kazakhstan). The methodic of testing piles by these standards have some differences.<br>Discussion of using control equipment, technological features of the aforementioned methodic shall be<br>important for the understanding of different points. The paper includes the results of piles of static tests using<br>ASTM standards. The recommendations for the future modernization of Kazakhstan Standards have been<br>given.
