Driven Piles: Static Analysis – Single Piles

Upon completion of the course you will understand: Explain the bearing capacity of piles in cohesionless soils including use of the Meyerhof and Nordlund Methods Relate bearing capacity of piles in cohesive soils including use of the Tomlinson and Effective Stress Methods State impacts of layered soils on bearing capacity of piles Predict bearing capacity of piles on rock Compare bearing capacity methods based on CPT Data including the Nottingham and Schmertmann Method and the LPC Method Summarized the basics of uplift capacity of driven piles Identify the basics of lateral capacity of single driven piles This course is part of a series of courses on Driven Piles including: Introduction to Static Analysis Method (1 hour) Pile Type and Selection (2 hours) Static Analysis Pile Groups (3 hours) Static Analysis Single Piles (3 hours) Subsurface Exploration and Testing (2 hours) There will be a multiple choice quiz at the end of the session to gauge your understanding of the material.
