Full-scale field-test study of dynamic soil resistance of vibratory driven sheet piles

摘要

The vibratory characterization of full-scale sheet piles vibratory driven into the ground has so far not been performed systematically in detail. This paper presents the preliminary results of a series of full-scale field-tests where the driveability has been continuously monitored. In the light of the presented results, the paper briefly discusses how the complexity of driveability prediction can be subdivided into three parts: vibro-, sheet pile-, and soil-related parameters, all of which significantly affect the driveability.
