Download or read book Pile Driving by Pile Buck written by Pile Buck International and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-11-13 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive reference for driven piles. Nearly six years in the making, Pile Driving by Pile Buck is a comprehensive reference book on the history of pile driving and driven piles, the various types of piles, the equipment used to install them, the design of driven pile foundations, the installation of driven piles and the capacity verification of driven piles. Not just another theoretical exercise, Pile Driving by Pile Buck gives practical procedures and equipment configurations for the successful installation of virtually any driven pile foundations.

Download or read book Vulcanhammer info Guide to Pile Driving Equipment written by Don Warrington and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-05-10 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven piles are the oldest known form of deep foundations, and remain the most reliable today. Vulcan Iron Works produced reliable, rugged pile hammers, some of which remain in service after a century in the field. Now the hammers and the piles are put together in a complete reference that discusses all of the various types of pile driving equipment, including air/steam, diesel, hydraulic, vibratory and others. Extensive material on accessories and leaders is also included. A description of the drivability analysis process has a worked example to make the concepts more easily understood. In addition to this, extensive resources from the Vulcan and Raymond library are included, including the User's Guide to Safe Operation, an expanded Data Manual, sections from the Raymond Superintendent's Handbook, and field service manuals for Vulcan onshore and offshore air/steam hammers, diesel hammers, vibratory hammers and the DGH series hammers.
Download or read book The Performance of Pile Driving Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A study was undertaken on the performance of pile driving systems and the existing technology for the measurement of performance parameters was reviewed. This report is an inspection manual for use by pile driving inspectors and engineers to ascertain that the pile hammer conforms to certain minimum standards, and to record observations on hammer and driving system behavior. The manual considers only impact hammers; i.e., a large weight is alternately being raised and then accelerated downward, impacting against the pile top. Vibratory hammers, which operate on a different principle altogether, have been excluded from this manual. In addition to pile impact hammers, the manual addresses the complete driving system to include cushions, helmets, and leads. Also included as an aid to the inspector/ engineer, are comprehensive field inspection data forms"--Technical report documentation page

This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Standard provides a guideline for an engineering approach to the design and subsequent installation of pile foundations. The purpose is to furnish a rational basis for this process, taking into account published model building codes and general standards of practice. It covers such topics as: administrative requirements; pile shaft strength requirements; soil-pile interface strength requirements and capacity; design loads; design stresses; construction and layout guidelines for pile design; and installation guidelines for pile construction. In addition, the Standard includes information on applicable standards from ASTM, AWPA, and ACI. It concludes with an Appendix on partial factors of safety.

Download or read book Basics of Foundation Design written by Bengt Fellenius and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Red Book" presents a background to conventional foundation analysis and design. The text is not intended to replace the much more comprehensive 'standard' textbooks, but rather to support and augment these in a few important areas, supplying methods applicable to practical cases handled daily by practising engineers and providing the basic soil mechanics background to those methods. It concentrates on the static design for stationary foundation conditions. Although the topic is far from exhaustively treated, it does intend to present most of the basic material needed for a practising engineer involved in routine geotechnical design, as well as provide the tools for an engineering student to approach and solve common geotechnical design problems.

Download or read book Coastal Protection written by Pile Buck and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With today's problems surrounding shoreline protection, this book should be of great assistance. This manual contains a compilation of 2 Navy and 2 Corps manuals all relative to the subject of coastal protection and the affects tidal action has on our shorelines. The titles included are: Coastal Protection is a U.S. Navy publication which deals specifically with waves and their characteristics. In order to prepare safe designs, the normal and extreme waves which will act against the structure must be evaluated so that a design wave can be selected. Pilebuck takes the user through this phase into the application of data to actual design of breakwaters and seawalls. Storm Surge Analysis: High tides and wind-generated waves combine to provide a potential for abnormally high water levels and flooding during hurricanes or other serious storms. An understanding of this phenomena is essential in order to plan control structures or design others.

Download or read book Design of Pile Foundations written by US Army Corps of Engineers and published by . This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides information, foundation exploration and testing procedures, load test methods, analysis techniques, allowable criteria, design procedures, and construction consideration for the selection, design, and installation of pile foundations. The guidance is based on the present state of the technology for pile-soil-structure-foundation interaction behavior. This manual provides design guidance intended specifically for the geotechnical and structural engineer but also provides essential information for others interested in pile foundations such as the construction engineer in understanding construction techniques related to pile behavior during installation. Since the understanding of the physical causes of pile foundation behavior is actively expanding by better definition through ongoing research, prototype, model pile, and pile group testing and development of more refined analytical models, this manual is intended to provide examples and procedures of what has been proven successful. This is not the last nor final word on the state of the art for this technology. We expect, as further practical design and installation procedures are developed from the expansion of this technology, that these updates will be issued as changes to this manual.
