bearing piles just transfer loads to hard-pan and body of pile dose not any functional application but friction piles detract load in all over of its body in touch with nearby soil.the most effective issue that should be considered by pile designer is soil survey report because soil specifications and foundation usage will determine which type of pile should be chosen.
