Book Piles and Pile Driving  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Piles and Pile Driving Classic Reprint written by A. M. Wellington and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Piles and Pile-Driving The following work contains a reprint of some of the more important articles on the subject of "Bearing Piles," which have appeared from time to time in Engineering News, including especially those in which what has since become known as the "Engineering News Formula" for the safe load of piles was announced, explained and defended. It also includes a reprint of a valuable pamphlet on "Bearing Piles," by Rudolph Hering, M. Am. Soc. C. E., which was published some years ago by the Engineering News Publishing Co., but long since went out of print; and a full abstract of a paper by Mr. Foster Crowell before the American Society of Civil Engineers on "Uniform Practice in Pile Driving" with the discussions thereon. It is believed that this little volume contains about all that can be required in any case for solving the most serious problem connected with pile-driving, what load can be placed on given piles with safety; but if it be desired to find fuller information as to specific records, the back files of Engineering News, of the Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers and of the Proceedings, of the Institution of Civil Engineers should be consulted, as they all contain further information of value; though the more important information to be had from all these sources is given in substance in this volume.

Book Basics of Foundation Design

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.

Excerpt: ...permits us to make it) by arbitrary changes in the general direction of the allowances we wish to make. Mr. John C. Trautwine, Jr., after briefly commenting on the inherent difficulty of securing any precise formula of general application, presented the following discussion, an exceedingly valuable feature of which was a big list of actual records of the bearing power of piles: The weight of mm and the height of fall may indeed be determined with reasonable exactness, and the product of these gives us, no doubt, quite approximately, the energy stored in the ram at the instant when It comes into contact with the head of the pile; but in estimating how much of this energy is utilized in driving the pile, we are obliged to remember that the mass of the pile has yet to be set in motion; that the direction of the blow can seldom be more than approximately In line with the axis of the pile; that the vibration of the pile under the blow will vary with the length of the pile projecting from the ground; that according to circumstances this vibration may facilitate or impede the driving, and that to an unknown extent; that the pile, even at its best estate, is more or less compressible, and that the head must become more or less crippled by the blows delivered upon it, thus further iucreasIng and rendering still more uncertain the amount of the useless consumption of energy in the delivery of the blow. But perhaps the most serious difficulty is encountered when we come to deduce the supporting power from the estimated effective energy of the blow, dividing the latter by a quantity containing the penetration or set per blow, as is done in all the formulas embraced in the present discussion. As observed by Mr. Rudolph Hering, "the only method...
