Subject: pile design with no end bearing for diam< 750 mm?

  I would like to design bored cast-in-situ piles in weathered rock in South Africa.
Has somebody information on the practice of designing piles as friction piles with no end bearing for diameter < 750 mm (where no manual bottom cleaning is possible!)? Is it a South African Standard requirement? I have never heard of a so restrictive practice in Europe.
Thank you
