Driven Piles: Introduction to Static Analysis Methods

Upon completion of this course you will understand: The basics of static analysis including situations where two static analyses are necessary How different types of soil are disturbed during pile driving operations and how these changes impact temporary and permanent soil conditions How load is transferred from the piles to the adjacent soil How to compute the effective overburden pressure The considerations in selection of design soil strength parameters The factors involved in selection of a factor of safety for allowable pile soil resistance
