Project Description

Pile installation is a complicated, energy-intensive process where codes and regulatory standards provide some guidance, but little is understood about coupling and transmission of pile driving energy into and through the ground in the form of vibrations. These vibrations can cause direct structural damage and damage due to settlement of granular soils.

This project aims to:

  • Validate a Finite Element code based on ground vibration monitoring data from full-scale and reduced-scale pile driving tests
  • Supplement the existing data with experimental testing to be conducted at the Nottingham Centre for Geomechanics’ centrifuge
  • Characterize the pile driving vibration environment
  • Develop a formula predicting the energy dissipation into the ground

Application Deadline

The deadline for applications is March 07 2021

Eligibility
