Determination of Pile Driveability and Capacity from Penetration Tests. Volume 2.Appendixes

摘要

Research has been conducted on the potential improvement of dynamic wave equationanalysis methodology using in-situ soil testing techniques. As a basis for this investigation, the literature was reviewed and a summary was compiled of efforts made to date on the development containing more than 150 cases of test piles with static load tests, dynamic restrike tests, soil information, driving system data and installation records. One hundred data base cases were subjected to correlation studies using both wave equation and CAPWAP. This work yielded dynamic soil model parameters which did not indicate a specific relationship with soil grain size. This volume is the first in a series. Other volumes in the series are: FHWA-RD-96-179 Volume I: Final Report; and FHWA-RD-96-181 Volume III: Literature Review, Data Base and Appendixes.
