A hammer pile driver has a hammer with mass of 700 kilograms. It falls onto the top of a 140-kilogram pile from a 150 centimeter height, causing it to be buried 0.120 meters into the ground. If the impact is perfectly elastic, that is, e = 0, what is the average penetration resistance of the ground?
Please answer 11.22
13.10 A static load test has been conducted on a 60-ft long, 16-inch square reinforced concrete pile
then use this value and the remaining data to compute q,' and the average f, value in the soil.
respectively. The data recorded at failure was as follows: Load at head = 139,220 lb, settle-
ment at head = 1.211 in, settlement of telltale rod A = 1.166 in, settlement of telltale rod
B = 1.141 in. Use the data from tell tale rod A to compute the modulus of elasticity of the pile,
which has been driven from a barge through 20 ft of water, then 31 ft into the underlying soil.
Telltale rods A and B have been embedded at points 30 ft and 59 ft from the top of the pile,
, Telltale rod A is anchored only 1 ft from the mud line (the top of the soil). There is es-
ially no side-friction resistance between the top of the pile and this point, so the force at a
depth of 30 ft is essentially the same as that at the top of the pile.
