Abstract:

The work described here represents an attempt to understand the mechanisms of energy ; transfer from steel H-piles driven with diesel hammers to the surrounding soil and the energy ; attenuation through the soil by measuring ground motion vibrations in the near vicinity of the ; pile. Attenuation rates of vibration decay with radial distance from the driven pile were ; calculated. A spreadsheet tool was developed to estimate distances from the pile at which the ; threshold settlement vibrations may be exceeded.
