Abstract:Past placment of structural foundation support piles in frozen soils generally has been performed using drilled and slurry backfill techniques. The early success of specially modified H-pile structural shapes driven into permafrost, and the promise of more economical and faster methods of pipe pile placement, has fostered development or refined pile driving techniques on the North Slope of Alaska.
The proposed criteria in this paper are primarily addressed to the practicing design engineer, including design and contruction considerations for driven piles in permafrost. As more research and experience accumulate, factors in this report may change. (40 p.)
