| Description |
The workshop explored
the current state-of- the-knowledge concerning the effects of pile driving on adjacent
soil properties and determined areas where more research may be required. It is recognized
that the properties of soils are sometimes changed by the installation of piles and that
time- dependent effects are often part of these changes. The workshop sought to develop
avenues of research to lead to the prediction of soil modification by pile driving so that
altered properties can be considered in design of pile foundations. Consideration was
given to a wide range of pile types, soil properties and installation situations,
including offshore installations. |
