From page 71...
... A framework for such an approach is presented here; further development, however, will require additional databases, e.g., for the correlation between soil parameters and field tests, as well as subjective judgments. 4.2.2 Framework for LRFD Design for Deep Foundations In order to fully exploit the potential of the LRFD methodology for geotechnical purposes the aforementioned issues must be addressed.
From page 72...
... This factor accounts for the manner in which soil parameters are estimated from field and laboratory test data and the exactness of those estimates. Low values mean that the correlation between soil parameters and the measurements they are based upon is poor (e.g., when estimating undrained shear strength of soft to 72 medium clay from SPT values)
