Abstract:The objective of this project is to compile the state-of-the-art and best practice
results available on the subject of pre-bored piles and develop a research and
instrumentation testing plan for fi eld data collection and select multiple pile
driving sites representing diff erent soil strengths (e.g., a “hard” site, a “very stiff ”
site, and a “medium stiff ” site). The outcome of the research will include a plan
for driving multiple test piles at each site using diff erently sized predrill holes with
no predrilling as control for comparison, performing monitoring during driving,
restrikes using pile dynamic analyzer (PDA), and static load tests as well as strain
gauge instrumentation.
