Inspection of Pile Driving Operations

Abstract

The inspection of pile driving operations involves the accumulation and interpretation of technical data and the simultaneous recording of pay item data. The manual is designed to explain the range of tasks inspectors must perform and to put the tasks in the broader perspective of the entire pile driving operation. The manual begins by explaining pre-construction organization, then the pile driving operation, and finally the data that the inspector must record. Two appendices include additional technical information on pile drivers, both the hammer and vibratory types.
