• 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.
