Abstract:The broad objective of this project is to fully develop the use of the computer solution of the wave equation so that it may he used to predict driving stresses in piling and be used to estimate static load hearing capacity of piling from driving resistance records. This report concerns itself with the specific objective of determining the dynamic load-deformation properties of soils. These properties are necessary for the wave equation analysis and have been found to have a significant effect on the driving stresses and pile penetration during driving. Only one of the six previous reports on this study has dealt with the Soil Mechanics aspects of this research. This report was No. 33-5 entitled "An Annotated Bibliography-Soil Dynamics and Soil Rheology," and was published in June 1966. The other five previous reports all dealt with the structural aspects of the piling behavior problem.
