Abstract:Project No. 2-5-62-33 entitled "Study of Variables Which Affect Behavior of Concrete Piles During Driving," was initiated September 1, 1962. The objectives of the 1962-63 year were to (1) make an orderly theoretical computer investigation of the influence of various factors on the behavior of piles during driving, (2) present these results in the form of charts, diagrams, or tables for direct application by office design engineers, and (3) instrument and field test at least two concrete piles to obtain data on dynamic stresses in piles to correlate with the computer results. The results of objectives 1 and 2 were presented in a report entitled "Computer Study of Variables Which Affect the Behavior of Concrete Piles During Driving," which was prepared for the Bridge Division of the Texas Highway Department in August 1963. The results of objective 3 are presented in this report.
