Class A Prediction of the Vibro-Drivability of a Steel Pile in Montoir
Abstract
A class "A" prediction of the vibro-drivability of a steel pile is presented. The numerical model,the calibration of the parameters, the assumptions made for the numerical calculations are summarized and the most relevant results are briefly presented and discussed. Differences between the actual pile geometry and machine parameters with respect to the values used in the numerical modelling, but also a proposed simplification of the cone resistance profile cause the discrepancy between calculated and experimental results.
