Abstract:Engineers must take care that the vibrations from pile driving
operations during bridge construction do not damage underground
utilities or cause settlement in the foundations of nearby structures.
In this project, researchers developed a simpler and more accurate
method for estimating vibration dissipation as the distance from pile
driving increases and predicting where ground settlement will occur.
They developed a software tool MDOT can use to identify potentially
troublesome sites and avoid costly damage to nearby structures
