Abstract:The dynamic response of a pile during driving is very
complex, involving the interactions of the hammer, cushion,
pile and soil during application of an impact load.
The first analysis aimed at simulating a hammer blow on
a pile was published in 1960. A revised, more realistic
pile driving analysis was recently developed at Purdue
University. Proper modeling of pile driving is important
both for planning and inspecting pile driving operations.
Reliable estimation of the load capacity of a driven pile
based on the ease or difficulty with which the pile is
driven allows an inspector to decide when pile driving
can be discontinued.
