Use of Pile Driving Analysis for Assessment of Axial Load Capacity of Piles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Driven piles are commonly used in foundation engineering. Pile driving formulae, which directly relate the pile set per blow to the capacity of the pile, are commonly used to decide whether an installed pile will have the designed capacity.

Temperature response functions (G-functions) for single pile heat exchangers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Foundation piles used as heat exchangers as part of a ground energy system have the potential to reduce energy use and carbon dioxide emissions from new buildings. However, current design approaches for pile heat exchangers are based on methods developed
